a quiet place - and the lack of it

by

i left my apartment to get away from the noise outside. they are moving debris from the creek near my home. i remember the documentary that focused on cities being too noisy for their own good. one of the examples is New York City. the amount of decibels that New York produces is just too much for a human to endure every single day.

now i'm currently in a coffee shop to be productive. but for me, a neurodivergent, needless noise and tuning that out actively is a huge chore. i'm glad I got a couple of code done for the website i am working on

Sometimes I wonder what if we can all truly tap our potential? What if you're not hindered by societal limitations? What if you can do anything you always wanted to do?

Whenever I talk to people of different races and foreigners that know very little of my country, my horizons widen and my opportunities open up. They get to know more about what I have to offer beyond what is written and shown in popular media.

As a Filipino, I'm so used to the fact that Filipinos are consistently hindered by so many responsibilities and limitations, from poverty to cultural issues. I refuse to be limited due to my nationality and what other people write about Filipinos. Talent shouldn't be limited by region or race or stereotypes. The future is global.
