"MAYBE IT'S TIME TO REST ON OUR LAURELS."
--
Pandemic has brought up a lot of things I need to heal through, and this is one of them: the idea of the "perpetual achievement". Sound familiar?
We glooorify it. What you did today is good, yeah - but what about what you'll do TOMORROW? You'd better be going higher, stronger, faster - never stop, don't you dare. Post the next ig picture. Generate tomorrow's tiktok content. Hope for likes. Touched the sky? Blow a hole through the atmosphere and torpedo straight on to the next burning star. The you from yesterday? We don't know her. We're better. Upgraded. V 2.0.
I've been living my life like this for years now, but the past 2 years have forced us all to BE slowed down and re-evaluate.
Don't get me wrong. Ambition & achievement are wonderful. (There are certainly many more things I want to achieve, and much coming up that I'm going to be sharing with you guys. Never stop dreaming.) But dreaming becomes a problem when it turns living into a nightmare, because you can't stop trying to put distance between yourself and yourself. Stop being the shadow you are continually trying to win. It's EXHAUSTING. Aren't you exhausted? I am.
So maybe the truth is this: that we were put on this earth to do ONE good thing with our lives. ONE properly good thing.
And maybe that's winning a great Waterloo style battle, or achieving a certain dream. Maybe it's finishing one great performance. One great thesis. A beautiful painting. An espresso magnum opus.
And then - we let that be enough. And we rest on our laurels. "Greatness" does not have to be continually proven. Likes are transient, clout & remembrance fade. Do what you do because you love it, and it is good, and it fulfils you. If when your day comes to an end you can say "I did this one thing to the best of my ability and it was good" - that is enough, hero. Be at peace. The bards will sing of that one deed. The song will be equally wonderful without infinite stanzas.
So rest on your laurels, goddesses. You've earned it.

i am in love with you tiktok 在 Facebook 的精選貼文
I always feel hesitant to post videos like this. But I have learned that we cannot control what people say or think about us, but what we can control is what we do. And I choose to share this inspiring experience I have had yesterday.
A few weeks, ago, I was at Pugon Bakeshop eating my favourite Super Lugaw, as you already know how much of a fan I am. And then, I remembered a campaign on TikTok which was #LugawIsEssential. I asked the owner (he is very private so I am not gonna name him) if they have had a feeding program. At this point, I already know what they do for the community. He replied that they actually have a feeding program where some business owners in Boracay come together to feed the locals.
I got excited to have known this because I have been wanting to film moments like this- not influenced by other people, but just me doing it because I love doing it. And so I asked them to invite me next time so I could capture it. They agreed.
I honestly had no idea how fascinating it was until I experience it. Yesterday, I came along with the guys, we got lost, but we arrived with so many kids waiting for us with their bowls and glasses. The entire time, I was hiding my emotion. I get so emotional when I see things like this on social media and the impact of seeing and experiencing it in person is quite bizarre- in a great way.
We were accompanied by Malay Municipal Police Station, a few people who organised the BARANGAYanihan crowd (yes, there's indeed a program like that), and the people from Boracay Community Sharing Group. Surprisingly, I did not know I was with the people from the Community Sharing Group.
Okay, I just realise I am writing too much, so I am going to make my point of this post now.
You see, I have met a lot of people in my life. I have met people who complained about our community all the time and do nothing even they have the influence, power and connections to do so. And we have people who do not talk about the problems in our community, they see it, and instantly do something about it in hiding. Not all heroes wear capes, they said. And it is true.
I have seen the struggles on this beautiful island, and I am blessed and grateful to have been a part of this activity. It restores my belief in humanity- that somehow, even with the lockdowns happening, people doing their best to get by, there are a few good people who hide in the dark and are helping people silently.
And thank you.
To the policemen of Malay Municipal Police Station,
to the people from the Boracay Community Sharing group, and to Pugon Bakeshop/Bar & Cafè and Salaver Clinic - Boracay, thank you for allowing me to experience this inspiring moment. I hope and pray that people from other municipalities and cities would see this video and be inspired by what you do. Please, please, please, I ask you, to continue being the gold standard. Thank you for allowing me to capture it without giving you a heads up.
And for my final note, we do not need to wait for our government to help. We can help one another. If we have a little bit of something to share with our neighbours, it is already a great start. All we need is compassion and little kindness especially during these lockdowns.
