As I am in no position to demand an explanation from you, the most that I could do is spill my guts here.
Whatever makes you happy, go for it. I just wouldn't want you hurt for the nth time.
As I've been telling you for the longest time, as long as masaya ka, masaya na rin ako for you.
The most that I could do is sit back, and wait. After all, you are the driver. Whether this would lead you to a plain joyride or a journey back home, I will await for you. Whether you'd be beaming cos of happiness, or with tears held back in your eyes... I will be here for you. That's what friends are for. Although I hate his guts, I wouldn't mind accepting him as he is as long as he makes you happy. What if it's written in the stars na kayo talaga? Who am I to contradict the constellation? I am no God. Goddess lang. Hahaha. Seriously, if this situation leads you back or away from him, andito lang ako. Whatever decision you take, I will support you.
We can't be procrastinators all the time. Some things are better dealt with, ASAP. I saw you putting this thing off for the longest time. Anyone in your position will be doing the same thing, I assure you. I just hope that this time, as you try to deal with it, you succeed.
Funny, I too, have been putting off a lot of things lately. Feeling ko, I have all the time in the world yet I believe na Life is short, that's why you have to make the most out of it. Contradicting? I know. Tell me about it...
From something as petty as trying to stop drinking Coke, to something as bizaare as trying to fully letting go, the list goes on.
I will deal with them... in my own time.
Let's just wait a little more.

Past Forward...
Nothing significant happened for this week. In short, lumipas na naman ang isang linggo na walang kabuluhan.
Woohoo! September's about to end. First off, at long last, my CA's gonna fall off. And finally, I get the chance to apply for a different position. I am psyching myself not to get too excited though. Madali pa naman ako ma-dissapoint. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Sana I get the chance. Secondly, malapit na Christmas. Ilang months na lang, Christmas shopping na naman. Ano kaya bibilhin ko na gift para sa sarili ko? Hmmm...
Weird ng weather. The other day, sobrang lakas ng ulan at hangin. As I was looking at the office window, feeling ko, dumalaw si Hurricane Katrina. I didn't bring my anti-hangin payong kaya para akong basang pusa when I got home. Tapos ngayon, naka-smile na si Haring Araw! Weird!
Ang haba na pala ng hair ko.

Love Stories...
When you think of your past love, you may view it as a failure. But when you find a new love, you view the past as a teacher.
In the game of love, it doesn't really matter who won or who lost. What is important is you know when to hold on and when to let go!
You know you really love someone when you want him or her to be happy, even if their happiness means that you're not part of it.
Everything happens for the best. If the person you love doesn't love you back, don't be afraid to love someone else again, for you'll never know unless you give it a try.
You'll never love a person you love unless you risk for love.
Love strives in hurting. If you don't get hurt, you don't learn how to love.
Love doesn't hurt all the time. Though the hurting is still there to test you, to help you grow.
Don't find love, let love find you. That's why it's called falling inlove because you don't force yourself to fall. You just fall.
You cannot finish a book without closing it's chapters. If you want to go on, then you have to leave the past as you turn the pages.
Love is not destroyed by a single failure or won by a single caress. It is a lifetime venture in which we are always learning, discovering and growing.
The greatest irony of love is letting go when you need to hold on and holding on when you need to let go.
We lose someone we love only when we are destined to find someone else who can love us even more than we can love ourselves.
On falling out of love, take some time to heal and then get back on the horse. But don't ever make the same mistake of riding the same one that threw you the first time.
To love is to risk rejections, to live is to risk dying, to hope is torisk failure. But risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is risk nothing! To reach for another is to risk involvement, to expose your feelings is to expose true self, to love is to risk not to be loved in return.
How to define love: fall but do not stumble, be constant but not too persistent, share and never be unfair, understand and try not to demand, hurt but never keep the pain.
Love is like a knife. It can stab the heart or it can carve wonderfulimages into the soul that always last for a lifetime. Love is supposed to be the most wonderful feeling. It should inspire you and give you joy and strength. But sometimes the things that give you joy can also hurt you in the end.
Loving people means giving them the freedom who they choose to be and where they choose to be.
For all the heartaches and the tears, for gloomy days andfruitless years, you should give thanks, for you know, that there were the things that helped you grow.
Loving someone means giving him the freedom to find his way,whether it leads towards you or away from you.
Love is a painful risk to take but the risk must be taken no matter how scary or painful, for only then you'll experience the fullness of humanity and that is love.
Only love can hurt your heart, fill you with desire and tear youapart. Only love can make you cry and only love knows why. If you're not ready to cry, if you're not ready to take the risk, if you're not ready to feel the pain, then you're not ready to fall in love.

And so I went out with my friends last week.
Everyone's well... I guess.
Love has different faces and phases.
Yung isa kong friend, for the longest time, ayaw sya tantanan ng nakaraan nya. Meaning, ayaw sya lubayan ng ama ng anak nya.
Weird phrase?
Here's a backgrounder.
She' s a single mom. The Dad... what do I say about that jerk?! Hmmm... let's put it this way, he's living as if he has no worries. Parang walang anak na dapat intindihin. I know I sound biased pero this is how I see it. It shouldn't be a problem kung ayaw nyang iwan yung friend ko. The thing is, ayaw nyang iwan friend ko, at the same time, ayaw rin nyang iwan yung so-called-girlfriend nya. Something is seriously wrong with him. He can't have them both, naturally. I am in no position to make him choose. Pero naman, for my friend's peace of mind, he has to. Nakakabadtrip ns sya e! Ano ba sya? God's gift to women?! He's got all the signals mixed up. How can he believe na it's gonna work out this way? He makes promises, but never delivers. How can he expect na he has my friend at his beck and call? It's gonna take more than empty promises and sweet messages to win her back. Potek, pati kami na friends nya, you have to win us back!
Good thing, my friend is handling the situation well. She's trying to live her own life now. It's a tough job pero she is getting there.
Yung isa kong friend, she caught her husband cheating. Potek diba? Why get married kung magloloko ka lang naman pala diba? Nobody forced you to marry her. She's one heck of an independent girl! For crying out loud, Marriage is a serious business. You have a family to save. Need I say more? If you're unhappy, cheating won't solve a thing. Lahat naman ng bagay, nadadala sa magandang usapan. Ganun ba kadali kalimutan yung marriage vows nyo? Isa ka pa, batukan kita e!
Yung isa kong friend, mukhang masaya naman. And it's good to know na she is happy. No one has to conform to society just so you can love a person and be happy. As long as wala kayong
nasasaktan na ibang tao, let it be. Stay Happy!
