I really like who I'm becoming lately. A little unapproachable, not being nice all the time, not being too friendly to all, a little distant. I'm becoming more aware. We do not force things now. We become intentional with the things that we want for the day. We are more direct. We are more energy driven. We don't exhaust our energies on the things that don't matter to us and don't make us happy. We like our own company now. I like this version of me, a version that 5, 6 years ago would never thought na magiging ganito ako kalma.
