Hello everyone!
Hope all are safe and well! βΊοΈβ€οΈπ
Today is finally the day. Iβm about to leave and head to the airport, and while everything around me looks calm, my heart is a mix of emotions I canβt fully explain. My bags are packed, my things are ready, and yet I feel like Iβm carrying more than just luggage. Maybe some feelings too. Maybe fears. Maybe hopes. Maybe everything at once.
Here I am, one last look around before leaving my sisterβs place. I stayed here for almost four months. This place became my temporary home and my safe space during days when I felt lost, uncertain, tired, or quietly fighting my own battles. My sister isnβt here today since sheβs at work, so Iβll just lock the door and leave in a few minutes after posting this. It feels strange walking away alone, but Iβm used to being strong even when no one is watching.
Looking at these pictures, I can see the smile but behind that smile is a girl who is excited yet scared. Happy yet unsure. Strong yet secretly trembling. Going home feels different this time. Itβs not like the usual trips where everything is light and easy. This one feels like a big step, one that could change things for me.
Iβm excited because finally, after months, I will see my family again. I miss them deeply, especially during the nights when everything feels heavy and quiet. Going home means being surrounded by familiar faces, familiar laughter, familiar comfort.
But at the same time, Iβm afraid. Afraid of what life will be like again in Leyte. I still donβt have work, and I donβt know if things at home will feel the same. Part of me wonders if Iβm really ready. Part of me wonders what awaits me. Life has been full of unexpected turns lately, and I canβt pretend I know whatβs coming next. π
But even with all the fears, one thing remains, my faith. I just pray for a safe and sound flight, and that when I land in Leyte, God will guide whatever comes next. Maybe I donβt need to understand everything right now. Maybe I just need to keep going. πππ
I remind myself that Every day is a blessing, no matter how uncertain. Every step forward is still progress, even if my knees are shaking.
Today, I choose courage.
Today, I choose faith over fear.
Today, I choose to go home.
Have a Blessed Wednesday everyone! ππππππ
Thank You Lord for the blessings and love!
Be grateful in every little/simple things and youβll find happiness you ever wanted! πππ
Everyday is worth to be grateful of!
Praying for the safety and wellness of all.
Heal Our Land Oh God!
