What happens when all your family members are busy with their lives except for YOU?!?!
They were all in Tagum, Davao del Norte for two different appointments. The husband was part of the coaching staff who conducted a 6-day basketball clinic for young boys and girls. On the other hand, Mamo with my two daughters, were at a practice for their Kids for Christ band and Praise Parade competitions. The preparation was for their International Kids Village on May 2 to 4 in Cavite.
ALONE!
I found myself hanging out at Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf at Abreeza ... ALONE and trying to be EQUALLY PRODUCTIVE!
Yes! I tried so hard to work on some school related documents that I have to accomplish but I could not also deny that I was eating most of the time. My excuse: I am a multitasker or my brain works better when I am eating!
With no one to talk to, food was my best companion to overcome boredom. The food of CBTL with a bonus of good interior design did not fail to make me comfortable.
We do not necessarily need to be anxious or scared when we are ALONE. One of my favorite mantras is: ALL is GRACE and there is also a grace in our alone time. Personally, it is in my quiet moment that I am able to scream my utmost appreciation and desires. It grounds me to my very person and the exercise is rejuvenating. It prepares me to nourish my relationships.
