2020

It's January 28 today.

28 days into the new year huh? what's new?

a lot of things are different as of now. and i guess, i am also different. 

circumstances change people. hopefully for the better, not the latter. 

as you may already know, i do not fancy the idea of "new year" because it's just an artificial deadline human created. 

time is relative, it's just a reference people create for convenience,

but your life does not measure up to this reference. 

of course it's great to have certain target or duration you set to achieve your goals,

but honestly, 

everyday is a new chance to be better,

everyday offers a new hope,

and everyone has their timeline.

screw all the stuff you read online, 

you do not have to compete with another person,

you do you and be better than your yesterday.
explore new things,
explore yourself,
life is too short to even have a look at someone's life.

but as a matter of reference,

i am looking forward to things.

at the same time going to shift my focus on my present even more,

because it's what i do today matters for my future.

i do not want to be anxious about what's coming because it's just going to drain me out.

i am gonna end today's post with a saying from AA (my fav person on earth apart from my family) that just soothe my heart again and again,

i hope it will soothe yours too xD

"May we never be too happy that we forget it's just the dunia and may we never be too sad too, because it's just the dunia. Life is a constant balancing act."

I pray that may this year will give you glad tidings.
and that you yourself is going to become people's glad tidings.
practice gratitude, humility and patience.
it will keep you running stronger and longer.
trust me.

(also, speaking about running, i made my half marathon debut last weekend and i swear to God i felt super good about myself. hehe. looking forward for my first full marathon tehee.)
