this will be the mark that i have blog 30 days consistently. today marks my first month-sary of blogging daily even though i didn't posted them on the same day, but at least the whole month was complete.
and as a celebration for this, i would open another blog site to post my daily blogs. these would make my blogs reach other people. for the new readers that would be reading my entries, a lil background for you. im drew naynes, blogging every day of my life because i want to share hidden learning from my experience of day to day life.
TUESDAY: this day, i decided to accompany my mom again with my cousin's papers. this would be the second time we did this for the same papers. but this time, we need to go to tita emilee's office and get something from there.
we went to the office of the department of tourism in manila. it was quite an adventure for me again since i haven't been to that place. (i have this thing for stuff like exploring places i haven't reached yet.) when we got there, we saw tita emilee and she processed the papers with ease, she even treated lunch there. well we're a free lunch magnet, thank you thank you thank you!
right after that, we were instructed to go to DSWD office near pedro gil street. no-one had a clue how to get there, but following what tita emilee's instruction that the office is 4 blogs away from taft avenue and its near pedro gil. instincts kicked in and we looked for it. we even had a mistake because we went the other way instead the one from the right. sigh.
fortunately, we got there in one piece. we found the place and immediately fixed the papers. unexpectedly, we lack one important affidavit. so the whole day was a failure. we still lack one requirement.
we went home tired and a lil upset, but we were already planning on how to fix this minor problem we encountered.
now, failure do happen, even if we given it all we've got. there's always a chance of failing. its up to us if we would react or respond to what happened or what is happening. you might be wondering what's the difference between the two. reacting is what usually do right after something happens. let's say its a hot day, and we often would say "its so hot!" or even curse the day for being hot. you let emotions control you over the situation. responding differs because is like looking for better options immediately. responding is when you control your emotions and use you mental abilities to solve what's wrong in the situation.
actually, today's theme is similar to one of my previous entry. it just so happen that this time, i was with my mom, and she usually reacts to situation. i, on the other-hand, some how mastered this differences and i was able to guide her out of that state.
this is what i want to share to you today. so, until the next entry. :D
