Cuaresma or Holy Week is just day offs from school. In my own perspective, it was just an ordinary break from the world. A rest that I can enjoy throughout the span of the celebration. A week to spend time with relatives, family, and friends. A week away from academic works and stress. A week of relaxing and travelling places. A literal break, but was it?
While most of us are enjoy the 6-day vacation by visiting churches, going to beaches, travelling to places, attending holy week activities, or by just simply sleeping, there I am, staring at a blank document. Finding the motivation to finish my backlogs, assignments, and projects given by our dear teachers. There I am creating reports while recalling lessons from the past. There I am making reviewers for the upcoming quarterly tests. There I am fighting with the demons that prevents me from doing work. There I am facing the demons whom I followed in the past weeks, the demons that caused my backlogs.
Although holy week is a break, it didn't felt like one. The results of the weeks the I neglected my educational or academical duties, came back and haunted me. I spent the week conquering my demons that led me in the dark. I didn't defeat it, but I escaped its influence towards me. Now all I got to do is to keep it that way.
