my conversations with people I meet…some retained, some lost, some forgotten, some just passing by…
I’m feeling depressed, tired, weary, sad, stressed. The worst time of the year for me. So I tried to ask someone to give me a pep talk, but somehow I found myself doing the life-coaching for myself… ME: Bakit ganito ang feeling ko ngayon? Ayoko na talaga.
