I am pretty sure that everyone of us has time when we just needed to be alone. A time to where we can consciously process our thoughts, experiences and feelings. And each of us have his/her own way of enjoying that moment of aloneness. Some would catch up reading a good book while others would prefer listening to their favorite music. Or some would just do nothing but sleep ( and it's what I do especially when I'm sleep deprived, minsan nga liliban pa sa trabaho just to get a lot of sleep).
Minsan naranasan ko na din being trapped in a chaotic world. Confined, the only thing that I could do is to run far far away from it, just to breath again. I know some people would think it's a coward thing but whatever they might think or say, they cannot fathom the immensity of the f**k that I don't give. I know myself better. And I know when I'm going to need that TIME alone. All I want is to breath and have my spirit recharged. That when the time I get myself back, it would be a lot easier for me to face those damnable things in life.
I remember one time, I travelled alone to a place where I have never been to (way way far from where I am currently situated). I never told anyone about it (not until now). Gusto ko lang talagang mapag-isa noong mga panahong iyon. But I didn't expect that that would caused a friend into deep resentment when she accidentally knew about it. Bakit hindi man lang daw ako nang-imbita. I maybe selfish but I just need a break for me to do what I want with nobody at my side. I know somehow I have hurted her feelings but I just need to go away to save my sanity. I need to do that to find my own senses ...of which she finds it difficult to comprehend. I hope she will get over it. : (
Masarap naman kasi sa pakiramdam kahit minsan lang na maranasan ang mapag-isa at makapagmuni-muni. Walang ibang iniinda kundi ang sarili lang whilst enjoying the feeling of being careless and free.
Yung tipong malayo ka from the hustles and bustles of the city.
...and just physically enjoying the beauty of nature ALONE.
It was a good relief for me stepping on those rocks. It's like my feet were being massaged. And I was just cautious not to cut my skin from the sharp edges hehehe. So I'm like... not giving my full gravity to prevent cuts. : D
It's really like I'm in a paradise. Very calm and quiet. You could only hear the gentle sound of the sea, the chirping of the birds and the splashing of waterfalls nearby. Oh...laid-back...Hays! I didn't even notice I already had a nap under the tree...
That was my secret-now-told trip . lol. I am so lucky that it was a fine day that day. I'd probably have to go back there when I have to. Thanks to my camera and tripod, it wouldn't have been memorable without 'em. lol. And I know it was so lame for me wearing shirt at the waters. I think it would be better if I keep it that way haha.
I can say that being happy in our own time is probably the most useful tool that we can have in life. Being alone doesn't mean you're sad... but just self-reflecting...just spending quality time on your own self. And I tell you, you'd be more resilient after that. : ) : ) : )
: )'s for everyone!
