I’ve drafted a few thoughts I had throughout the past two days but then ended up deleting them and starting again from scratch. Here we go.
It’s currently a little past 8:30pm on a beautiful breezy Thursday evening. I just watched the season finale for one of the few Korean dramas I’ve been watching and keeping up with and I just have a few late night thoughts I wanted to take note of and cherish :)
I’m sitting at the dining table, a cup of peach tea on my right, handle right in reach, a warm, cozy aroma rising into the air. On my left is a bowl of Olde Tyme pretzels I’ve taken out to munch on as I just think, reflect, and simply sit. Pretzels and hummus have become an easy, healthy, and delicious go to.
Oh, and directly in front of me is a window. A view that I can look out into, breath (the window is wide open), and look into the depths of darkness. It’s actually pitch black dark. At what is now 8:43pm. This blog post is slowly becoming real time ahaha. Oh time. Just how fast can you actually go.
I’ve turned on some music just to set the ambiance but I also hear my brother on my right just munching munching munching LOL and a Korean show in another room. It’s good to be surrounded by you know, other beautiful human beings. :)
One of the greatest things I’ve been able to do during this quarantine is to sit and think. All of my summer plans kind of went down the drain and I think it worked out for the better. I am forced to rest, reflect, and think. Oh and help around in the house more. I don’t have an excuse to not do that anymore now.
So today, who knows how many days of quarantine it’s been. I don’t even want to quantify such an immeasurable value anymore at this point. Today started out kind of rough. Woke up a little too late for my liking but I mean I don’t have any regrets. I want to listen to my body more actively and really take this time to make the most of it. I opened my window and felt this sudden rush of warm, kind of gross, wet, all that mixed together. Not the most satisfying description for my liking either, but I hope you can feel what I felt haha.
As a severe introvert (as I have also taken note of as a result of this quarantine), life’s been pretty ok. I’ve had a few blocks thrown at me a few times since the beginning, but we’re all over it as time has gone by and God has shown me what He wants to tell me through all of them.
But today, more noticeably compared to other days, time has just flown by. If I had to descriptively tell you precisely how the day has gone by, hm.
But more important than that is how grateful I should be. Thankful for the daily breath of air. Thankful for having a new day to do a few more things. Thankful for the blue sky and the green grass. Thankful for how I am made, beautifully in His image.
For we live by faith, not by sight.
