...I have often wondered how it will be if I didn't choose this life with that someone. Will I be happier? More fulfilled with my life? Will I have more friends?

[Yes.]

These are questions that are all subsumed in the realm of conjecture. All that I will have no way of knowing. That is,

until I break free.

Totally. Completely.

[I have.]

That kind when I could look back at all these and laugh at how consumed I was with how I felt. That kind when I would neither feel hurt nor bitterness. That kind when I would already be with someone else.

[I am.]

But I haven't reached that stage. And I could not see how I could in the near future. And so, I'm here.

Waiting. And waiting. And waiting

Sana may dumating na.

I am in that stage. At may dumating na.

Sana lang, sya na.

It's a brand new day and a brand new life. And for the first time in months, I am happy. Maraming salamat sa pagdating mo, B. ;p

To be in and out of love...

Excerpts from…

WHEN YOU FALL IN LOVE

(Debunking The Myths That Are Driving You Crazy)

By Bo Sanchez

You start blaming your partner for the loss of love. This is nutty. But many people do it: when we don't feel in love, we think it's the fault of the other person. And so we fight him. Again, we fall out of love because we're human beings. It's nobody's fault. The moment you fall out of love, the real work begins . Let me explain. This is the most important point I'm going to make. (I got this from Scott Peck in his bestseller book, The Road Less Traveled).

Falling in love isn't love. Here's why. When you fall in love…

No decision is required. Falling in love just happens.

No effort is required. Falling in love is like…. well, falling.

No hard work is required. Falling in love is being bitten by the love bug.

On the other hand, true love requires all three : Decision, effort and lots of hard work. In the Bible, love is a command. You make it happen. Sure true love can only happen after you've fallen out of love. When you begin choosing to love, even if you don't feel like doing it — that's true love. And that's the foundation of a lasting marriage.

College, when I first learned to love, seems like a long long time ago. Now, years later, I still believe in the same thing. I love. And I hope it would never change.

A lifetime

Yesterday, I felt your love again. And it made me whole. Your soft kisses and the endearing touch of your presence were enough to remind me, that was why I loved you in the first place. Now, what I have is our last memory together as a happy couple, and that sweetest memory will already last me a lifetime.

Thank you, M.

Happiness

Take away the stress from work and one good thing remains apparent: I am happy. Really happy. Thanks, M G.

Question Number Two

If you won an argument against someone smarter than you, how would you feel?

Ecstatic, right? Right.

Happiness

Thank you for not letting me go.

Feels so nice to be happy.

Again.

Taking off

Sometimes, all it takes is one simple skin with one simple entry to bring me back to reality.

I'm back.

Just Mistakes

You have no idea how much it hurt. But thank you still for making me feel it, right here, right now. Thank you for breaking the fall while you still can. Thank you for letting me go, while we both still can.

I don't doubt that we evaded what could be great sadness. I only wish we experienced joy first. I'm happy you could nurse your broken heart now. I just would have been happier if you let me help. But nonetheless, I still thank you.

You may have thought I was someone, and you're not. But the truth is, I always thought that you're someone I could never have.

Don't worry about me. Don't cry for me. I am strong, I will overcome. Look to your heart instead, and heal what is broken.

So you can love. And then be loved. Again.

Good luck.

surprises

i just arrived from san pablo this early monday morning and i was greeted with the most pleasant surprise. i knew this was forthcoming since two days ago, yet the actual experience of being there and seeing the fruit of admirable effort presented before me somehow takes the knowledge of it on a different level--on a higher plane, if you will. if only for the effort, it's a triple A for you, and i appreciate it. a lot.

thanks.

friends

thank God for friends. for people who understand. for those who care, strengthen, and keep us all together, keep me together. thank God for those before whom no explanation is called for, for those who take you up front and cherish you for that. for those who say the right words on the right time with due regard for what you feel, aspire, and stand for. they are those there for you no matter what, be they near, or far.

to you guys, kudos, i never could and would have made it without you.
