Lethargic

Lethargic

 Looking at the sky of infinity,

Evergreen fields and horizons...

 Time moving slowly.

Happiness or sadness unfelt.

 A heart frozen from strife...

 Raging none of life.

  Growing and roaring lethargy...
Inside this hole of scar.
 Cursing the way things are.

Unanswered Prayer

Unanswered Prayer

Whispers and echoes

 into the void of nothingness

Sound traveling into vacuum

A scream of help

A shout of pain

A yell of hopelessness

Can someone try

to hear this excruciating cry

of an unanswered prayer?

Getting Inspired: A Day at the BDJ Women's Summit: Women Redefined

When I heard that BDJ is going to have a women's summit, I got excited and wondered if I should go. My life has become a hectic cycle of eat-sleep-work that hobby time has become rare for me. But I thought better and decided that life is about living, too. And what better way to rejuvenate that going to an event and meet like minded people.

The BDJ Women's Summit was so much fun! I got there late and missed the first two talks. But don't worry,  I still enjoyed the rest of the day. Themed as "Women Redefined", it tackled on being a successful woman in various fields. Yes, even male dominated careers.

The speakers were awesome! The encouragement they gave us touched our souls...

Right here in BDJ Women’s Summit, getting inspired by @abbyasistio “Courage would not exist without fear, without doubt.” 😍👍🏻⭐️ #bdjwomenssummit #womenredefined #bellainspired #abbyasistiomusic #inspiration @bdjbuzz #bdjwomenssummit

“Success is not about following a set of rules, it’s about accepting change.” Ms. Kathleen Yu on stage. 💯❤️😲 #bdjwomenssummit #resourcefulfemales #millennialmovement #womenredefined @bdjbuzz #bellainspired #bdjwomenssummit

It’s my first time to see a female pilot for real! Ms. Blu taught us that we can also excel in a male dominated career. I hope to be able to meet her in my future travels. “Be crazy enough to know you can do anything.”, she said. #bdjwomenssummit #bellainspired #womenredefined #pilot #courageous #inspiration @bdjbuzz

The seminars were so good that I barely had time in exploring the booths. But anyway, I did just that after the talks...

And lucky me! I won in the Wacoal booth. Yay! There were a lot of photobooths, too. We got a lot of pictures from Lipault, Wacoal, and Sunlife. There were also foundations that were ready to accept donations. But most of all, I'm very much happy because I won in the raffle, too. Wheee~

It’s a wrap~ What a great day! I learned a lot from the speakers, had fun at the booths, got lucky in the raffle, saw celebrities, and enjoyed the company of my fellow Bellas. Another day of good memories to keep in my heart. Thank you, @bdjbuzz @darlynsandra 👏🏻❤️😊 #bdjwomenssummit #womenredefined #photo #millennialmovement #bellainspired

But seeing all of my Bella besties made my day! I'm very much happy to see all of them again after months of me being MIA. And I also got to meet celebs like Antoinette Taus and Janeena Chan. What a lucky day! (^_^)
