my coffee tastes better today!
Finally, after spicing up everything I do from the last couple of days… My coffee tastes better today.
Surely, we've all experienced that time of the month when nothing feels right and you don't feel alive at all. You feel like you've been pushing yourself in your routine to make you feel happy and alive, but deep down... you're exhausted and not in the mood to do these things. Your coffee doesn't taste good on the first sip, exercising becomes difficult, and you can't even read a chapter in a book!
We all feel exhausted and overworked, when of course… when we don’t take much rest than our body needs. Personally, I have been experiencing this burnout for a couple of days now. I can’t even function well, and I can’t perform at my best. So, I had to reevaluate myself and figure out what was causing my exhaustion. That's when I realized, my routine doesn’t fit in my schedule, and I am experiencing bad days and burnout!
Knowing me, my day depends on how I perfectly finish my daily routine—which includes me waking up at 6am everyday and going to bed at 12am. Which again leads to frustration and disappointments when I failed to do my planned day. Well, how do I even do that when I am loaded everyday! In addition to that, I am experiencing THAT time of the month–where I skip exercise every morning, I don’t indulge myself thinking about the things I love, I don’t make time writing in my journal and I don’t even have time to thank the angels and universe every day.
Life and our days will not always be wonderful; we will have bad days, relapses, and feel stuck in a predicament, but it will eventually pass. We simply need to accept these circumstances because they are rather common and are a natural part of life. I usually tell myself that I enjoy the bad days since better days are just around the corner after that period, yet I can't help but find myself at the same place, writing the same words while I'm in THAT period. Maybe it's because some of us are too preoccupied with sadness and feeling the pain of bad days to see that it's just another month and the next time it'll be a sunny and lovely morning.
Overall, I believe we should be aware of our emotions and recognize that, we are humans, we are still capable of exhaustion. We can still call it a horrible day after trying. When the time of the month arrives, we can still be the most lifeless person ever existing. Even the most optimistic and strong person you know has terrible days and relapses. Today, as I have stated, my coffee tastes better and sweeter! To me, it is a sign of brighter days are coming! Which also means another rebirth before the month ends and the new month begins–we will be much stronger and wiser now. Thanks to our so-called bad days AND time of the month.
