June moodboard 🤝🏽💕

May was a really long and tired month now it’s time to enjoy the good weather and the summer energy with people that makes us feel good and keep building new healthy habits.

but that mimosa grove,

the haze of stars…

the honey-dew…

& that girl with her seaside limbs

& ardent tongue

haunted me ever since

abandoned mansion

Lotus Sutra

“I see bodhisattvas removing themselves form frivolity and laughter and from foolish companions, befriending persons of wisdom, unifying their minds, dispelling confusion, ordering their thoughts in mountain and forest for a million, a thousand, ten thousand years in that manner seeking the Buddha way.

Or I see bodhisattvas with delicious things to eat and drink and a hundred kinds of medicinal potions, offering them to the Buddha and his monks; fine robes and superior garments costing in the thousands or ten thousands, or robes that are beyond cast, offering them to the Buddha and his monks; a thousand, ten thousand, a million kinds of jeweled dwellings made of sandalwood and numerous wonderful articles of bedding, offering them to the Buddha and his monks; immaculate gardens and groves where flowers and fruit abound, flowing springs and bathing pools, offering them to the Buddha and his monks; offerings of this kind, or many different wonderful varieties presented gladly and without regret as they seek the unsurpassed way.” -- Excerpt from Lotus Sutra

hate to say it but i was daydreaming while lifeguarding exactly two women doing water yoga this mornign and anyway i was thinking about lupe and jess (as one does) and literally putting them in scenarios and situations for an uninterrupted 90 minutes and it was so blissful

I understand that children need regular exercise just as adults do, but there has got to be a better way to make sure they're getting activity in than forcing them to exercise in front of their peers for a grade and shaming those who are less athletically inclined, right? It's bad enough that it made me think that I hate exercising and made me averse to it for a significant portion of my adult life... which is surely the opposite of the intended purpose, right?

Look at my fancy lemonade boy

Baka retreat ang kailangan ko.

Nagdrama ako sa friends ko about my struggles, kung paanong parang ang baba ng chance na ma-accept dun sa gusto ko talagang pasukan (MD in pharma companies; laging may 2-3 years experience required; meron naman daw naha-hire na fresh grad, sabi sa akin ng alumna na chinika ko).

Buong med school, may some sort of insecurity ako na unlike my other batchmates na humahakot ng work experiences at pampataba ng CV, nakailang master's degree na rin sila by now, stuck ako sa isang mundane na routine. I always felt unsure if may mapapala ba ako rito, lalo na nu'ng nag-crumble ang mga paniniwala ko about this field.

Lagi nilang sinasabi, go back to your whys. My why has always been to be of service and to help, and being here felt that I'm not really making a lot of difference, and that it's not in my power to make a lot of difference. I spent a longer time dealing with patients in wards rather than outpatient consults, and the cases in that one particular hospital were often complicated.

I did enjoy the times when I was deployed to shadow consultants in clinics in malls (LOL), it was a completely different environment compared to days being in the ICU or doing rounds on the floors.

Anyway, a lot has happened at hindi ko alam kung ano talagang ginagawa ko. I've always been insecure about money kasi I feel... deprived? Unlike 'yung mga naging kaklase ko na pa-abroad-abroad with friends, or gumagastos ng 500.00 per meal... I can't... hahaha. Stuck pa rin ako sa mga panahong nangungutang ako noong college para lang sa mga pesteng pinapa-photocopy na module, manual, libro, at readings.

My life is not bad, I just don't feel empowered enough to make certain decisions. I always have this guilt and anxiety na I'm not doing enough, I'm not good enough. And I have this chronic tiredness na parang what am I chasing after? Life is short.

I don't even have plans to get married or mag-anak. I just want to feel okay, contented and satisfied with what I've done.

Now I feel like I have to document everything kasi sobrang daming nangyayari at hindi ko kayang tandaan lahat.

Andaming ia-unpack na trauma, sadness, happiness, anger, guilt, at anxiety. So I just need to confront myself, kilalanin sino na ba ako ngayon, ano na ba ako, at bigyan ng kapayapaan ang mga doubt na ako lang din ang may gawa.
