I took him for granted.
I hurt him a lot of times.
Traded him for other people and things I thought made me happy.
He tried to make me feel he loves me so much, but I was too selfish to even see.
Then my mistakes caught up on me.
I ended up hurting him and hurting myself.
Now wounded and tired, I am humbled as I find my way back home.
I finally realized true love lies in him.
Now I am going back to HIM.
I dashed inside the the comfort room desperate for the hand dryer.
My hands were frozen stiff because of the extreme cold in our office. The hand dryer was my only hope for relief.
Just then, another girl entered through the door and slipped inside the first cubicle.
A few minutes later, I could hear her stifled sobs.
I [...]
Text message from my friend A:
“May mga kanta ako para sa inyo… “Light On” tsaka “Come Back to Me” ni David Cook. Am listening to it. Naisip kita. Ipaubaya mo na sa ‘kin ‘yung “I’m Yours”. Lol!”
She was referring to my cellphone’s ringback tone, a sign of my fascination with Jason Mraz.
I’ve always made it [...]
Yesterday, as I was preparing to submit my bags for inspection at the MRT station, I was greeted by a cheery voice.
“Good morning, Ma’am!”
I looked up to see the security guard with a full smile.
“Good morning.”
I mumbled with a half-smile. I guess my emotions froze for a moment because I was used to being [...]

Be happy every chance you get.
How easy this will be depends entirely on you.
You can choose to be happy.

There are so many things you can be thankful for.

Expand your view of life.
Delete the bad.
Absorb all that is [...]
This is the most powerful word that should guide your life everyday.
When the pain of the past haunts you or when the fear of the future comes to you, shake them off, close your eyes and say: “NOW.”
It’s almost like a forceful mantra that brings you back to reality, the only real thing there is [...]
When you’ve been through so much pain, you reach a point when you just want to stop hurting.
And start living again.
When that moment comes, you feel free to start over.
You become wiser.
Stronger.
You learn to forgive others.
More than that, you learn to forgive yourself.
In the end you realize, life is much too precious…
to waste
…dwelling in the [...]
My heart is broken into a million little pieces.
I don’t know if I will ever be whole again.

There is one vital thing you need to accept about me:
I AM A FREE SPIRIT.
And I will always be.
I am like water in your hands.
The moment you start to close your fists around me, I slip away.
I cannot change for anyone because this is the way I am.
I live freely.
I love freely.
And that is how [...]
Humans cling to security, stability and familiarity.
They want to take risks but they never really take it.
They can’t and they won’t because they are afraid of being thrown out of their comfort zone, shaking things up and venturing into the unknown.
They are afraid to be hurt.
So they suffer in quiet desperation always wanting for something [...]
