How are you?



When was the last time you truthfully answered someone who asked you this question? How are you?

Kumusta?

I was asked this very same question this morning. And I was only able to give a perfunctory answer: okay. Am I really okay? I guess I am if that’s what I say right? But how am I really? I haven’t had much time to think about that. To think about how I’m doing. I just do. I mean, I just be. Eng?

I go through each day as it goes, my routine keeps me going. When I have a baking project, I look forward to it. Otherwise, it’s all just the same to me.

And that’s just sad isn’t it?

Let me think of something to actually look forward to each day as I get ready for work. Think of one for yourself :)

Kumusta? or How are you? is kind of the default question that Filipinos would ask a friend, or even an acquaintaince that they’d meet or come across with. NExt would be, who are you with or who’s with you right now?

I guess it depends who is asking.

If my neighbor will ask, me I’ll just shrug my shoulder…

If my boss will ask me, I’ll tell him that I’m not OK or else he will give me more work…

If my wife ask me, I’ll answer her the truth and nothing but the truth or else…
