Back on Day 20: Long Weekends


I have been gone for a few days, I know. The past week was probably the angriest I have ever been in quite some time. So while I have been searching daily for reasons to be happy, the past week has tremendously twisted my perspectives and realities.

The nice part is that it was a long weekend. I had ample time to recharge myself and restore a semblance of sanity. I have been silent because the I have been blinded by too much anger and hurt to see even the slightest glimmer of joy.


Today seems much better. The reasons to be angry continue to exist, but they no longer play in the foreground of my thought. I see a little more clearly and breath a little more easily. I spent the long weekend spending money that isn't mine--mostly for food and survival. Don't ask me why as it might surface the reasons that are sitting already in the background of thought. I spent the weekend mostly mall hopping and food tripping with my sisters. It was quite fun to be honest.


We finally went ahead and bought a DVD player. We usually watch DVDs on our computer, since it was generally easier for us. But then it would be difficult to watch when other people wanted to watch with us. The computer has such a small screen to accommodate three (3) viewers all at once. It was quite messy to set-up, as our television's really old with a screwed remote control and punched in channel buttons. Yup, you can imagine. Nevertheless, my sister's remote control exploration helped us press the right button. And we got it set up pretty well.


How did you spend your long weekend?


And, what made you happy today?
