Getting the chance to have this long holiday (Holy Week) has been very good for me, though I didn’t plan any vacation destinations or summer getaways, it has been a peaceful moment for everyone to take some time off from work to spend time to do the things I really wanted, simple things like sleeping early and waking up late is already a miracle for someone like me especially during work days or even weekends. Not that I don’t want a vacation, its just that getting away temporarily from my daily routines in life and do other things and stuff, as much as possible, I want them to be meaningful and not really waste my limited holiday time. Just want to do simple things in life and not to stress over holiday plans, or knowing someone is going on vacation and I am not.
It’s just amazing to know these days that people are getting stress out or pressured just to know someone is going on vacation or doing cool things especially when these activities are posted on social networking sites like friendster, facebook, etc. with the pictures showing everyone they are having a good time. It seems that they are obliged to do or have to go where they are or similar to that and post it to let others know. I remember one of my professor in college said that many of these kind of people who are pressured to do this things are only doing this to enjoy the vanity of the city.. the truth is that no one really knows if that person is really having a good time overall in his/her lives just by seeing them posting pictures or videos of smiling faces in the internet.
I recently read a book about reflecting ourselves as to see in your point of view the things you have done and your experiences and how it shaped you to be you.. Honestly, I haven’t done much reflection, though this blog really help me just by expressing my thoughts and opinions and never care what people will thinks or say (anyways, you can comment in my posts), though I am frustrated writer, I really do my best in just saying just about everything that I haven’t really done in personal( am a quiet person). Just as this Lenten season is a very good time to reflect upon myself and everyone as well.
