Keeping calm but that has more to do with the manchild pest than my little Isaac. THINGS I LOVED: 1. Dances with songs 2.had noodles with us THINGS I HATED: 1. My body can't keep up with the lack of sleep 2. Friend living with us gets to me do much that I am not being as patient as I'd like to with the baby  3. Did not have enough time, work keeps me busy.  4. Don't want to cook and I feel depression is eminent if this goes on(house pest invasion)

As the mother of a 6 month old I often find myself struggling with and being thankful for the same things. Sometimes, I feel the need to just vent, while other times I just want to be able to say these lovely things to someone. Since I got pregnant right before the pandemic begin and gave birth right in the middle of it. I have had practically no contact with the world outside my family bubble, my nuclear unit: me, my partner and the bebe.  So as a necessity, I will be posting these every week from today onward and mention my experiences in bullet points form, in hope that some other woman struggling through and loving the same things about motherhood and their baby.  AMAZING THINGS MY BABY DID THIS WEEK: 1. He started grabbing spoon while feeding and fed himself  2. He said "mama" 3. He opened his mouth when I asked  4. Didn't cry when we were dressing him to go outside  5. Stayed awake during and enjoyed outing to supermarket. THINGS I REALLY STRUGGLED WITH TH...

Ironically, the most immature people think that they’re really mature.  They’re very good at judging others and pulling them down, but almost incapable of seeing faults in themselves. They’re in denial of their own weaknesses, and are not willing to admit that they’re human and less than perfect just like everyone else. 2. Immature people deal with conflict or disagreement through aggressive means. They misunderstand empathy and compassion as weakness. They try to establish their superiority and authority over someone else by demeaning or insulting them. They are narrow-minded because they do not try to learn from and understand another person’s point of view. 3. Immature people react very negatively to perceived rejection or abandonment.  They are very amicable when things are going their way, but as soon as they cannot control something, they are incapable of acting gracefully under pressure. They try to turn the tables around by acting like...

She was running; from what she did not know. All she knew is that the fear she felt now was unknown to her, the intensity and the type, completely unknown. she was afraid of glancing back at whatever foe that was chasing her. She ran from one corner of the room to the other as fast as she could. her heart beating like it has never before. she took a sharp turn at the bend without breaking her pace.  She could see a pond of some kind ahead of her, "why was there a pond in the building?" she thought to herself. The water in the pond was green and she could see the moon's reflection in it. It was as if someone had put it there just to break her pace; she wasn't having it. She ran with the intention of jumping over it. Her pace increased along with her pulse and the speed of her thoughts.  She could see the man-made pond getting closer and anticipated the jump. Her foe closing in; she leaped high and just barely out of her foe's reach. Legs stretched, an...

When you find your true love, one tends to generally jump in and give their all only to find out later that it is not what they have expected. It is not uncommon that you find that you and your partner pass the honeymoon period and start annoying each other. Of course, we are only human and we tend to do things that might bother others and maybe even annoy our life partner. That isn't truly the problem. The problem is that we as humans tend to only expect good things out of people and thus only accept their good traits completely rejecting the flaws. In the process, we end up not only hurting others but also ourselves by making it harder for the relationship to sustain. So what is the solution? 1. Talk to each other : communication is of course the key. Keep an open mind and also allow your partner to talk. Make a safe place for both of you to talk without judgment. 2. Accept without condition : what most people do is they only accept their friends and families for all t...
