These Past Few Days I Find My Feet On The Ground
I didn't realize that it's been several months since the last time I used well-known social media. Life feels like on a bumpy road to resiliency. I find myself as a typical woman, working on a massive pile of insecurities.
I earn enough to pay my bills, buy foods, and feed my two cats. In short, I've been living just enough.
I easily get jealous when my peers talks about travel, expensive restaurants, and designer items—things I couldn't afford. But now, I just know what I have, and I need to live below my means. Lately, I am not looking for new clothes that will impress anyone. Instead, I try to look at my wardrobe and sort out the stuffs I haven't use and plan when can I use it. I try not to compare my salary to others. As I've said to my parents, if other people's (at my age) earnings are much higher than mine, they do deserve it as I work hard for it. And I, maybe someday. But for now, I have enough.
These past few days I find my feet on the ground. There are still people, friends, relatives, who tries to break my inner peace (maybe unintentionally), but trying to think where should I be gives me ease.
I still hangout with my good friends, talking about life, while sipping coffee. I still plan to travel, but I need to save first. This pretty little humbling things seems working to make me feel life's quite worthwhile.
