Show it, Prove it

"Ang diwa ng pag-ibig ay hindi naibabatay sa kung ano ang relasyon mo sa isang tao, kundi kung ano ang ginagawa mo upang mapatunayan ang nararamdaman mo.
Ang tunay na pagmamahal ay ibinabahagi ng walang pag-aalinlangan maging sino, at kung saang lupalop ka pa nagmula.
Hindi din ito dahil sa sex o anumang uri ng aksyon upang mapaligaya ang sarili at masabing masaya ka habang kasama siya.
Mas lalong hindi ito binibigkas kahit pa sa pinakamalalim na terminolohiya, retorika at mabulaklak na pananalita.
Sa halip, ito ay ipanapakita at pinapakatotohanan."

First Week of School

Angel started her schooling in Barasaoian Memorial Elementary School as a kinder student. She was not really excited because the week prior to her first week of school, she was not interested of writing or reading. We always scare her by telling her that we will send her back to Pangasinan if she will not study. But she will always answer, "My siblings are not studying in Pangasinan. Why do you want to send me back?"

Anyway, on her second day in school, she got her first star because she answered her teacher in English. Affirming her gender, she said, "I am a girl." She had a perfect score in her coloring book on the third day, giving her her second star. She had her third star on the fourth day when she connected the dots properly.

Angel's first week of school is fun not only for Angel but also for me. Despite of spending money for her tuition and uniform and school supplies, I enjoyed dressing her up, covering her books and notebooks, and testing my patience with her question-filled stories every afternoon.

It feels good not being committed into a relationship..
No crying moments..
No mind-bugging quarrels..
No partner to think about..
But it feels better when you have someone taking care of you, thinking about you, honestly, sweetly, faithfully and securely loving you..

I miss no one..
I just miss the feeling of being taken cared by a special someone..

--it's been one thousand one hundred eleven days since I lost my last relationship.

Ikaw ang Pinaka

"Sa dinami-dami ng tala sa kalangitan, ikaw ang pinakamakinang..
Ikaw ang namumukod tangi..
Ikaw ang bumubuo sa bawat constellation ng bituin..
Ikaw ang pinakamaliit sa pagkakatanaw ko..
Dahil ikaw ang pinakamalayo.. pinakamahirap.. pinakaimposibleng masungkit.."

Ikaw Lang

"Ikaw ang iniisip ko sa magdamag..
Ikaw ang ngiti ng mata at labi ko..
Ikaw ang unan ko sa pagtulog..
Ikaw ang gutom ko sa almusal hanggang hapunan.
Ikaw ang uhaw ko..
Ikaw ang puyat ko sa gabi..
Ikaw na lang ang kilala ko..
Ikaw lang ang nakikita ko..
Ikaw lang ang gusto ko.."

Ikaw ang Lunas

"Gusto ko ipagmalaki na ikaw ang gusto ko.
Inangkin mo ang puso ko sa iksi ng panahon mula ng tayo ay pinagtagpo.
Ninakawan mo ako ng katinuan.
Binigyan mo ako ng sakit na ikaw lang din ang lunas."

Pinili Kita

"Kung ako'y babagsak, gusto ko sa mundo mo.
Masaya ako na pinili kong masaktan, pinili kong lumuha.
Ito ay dahil pinili kita.
Nagsisisi lang ako hindi dahil sa ano ang nararamdaman ko.
Kundi dahil ngayon lang kita nakilala.."

kulungan

"Kung kasalanan nga ang mahalin ka, handa na akong magkasala.
Maging bihag sa mga naisin mo,

mabilanggo ng habang buhay,

at makipagbuno sa mga kakosa na naghahangad na mapako at magpakaugod-ugod sa kulungan mo."

On Loving

Loving someone doesn't guarantee you of a happy ending. Yes, there are people who are blessed that they are loved as much as they love. They receive the joy that love is giving. They end up exchanging vows of forever. And there are some who are not lucky enough to be loved the way they love. They are those who never had a chance of receiving full happiness. They end up torn into pieces, never-ending sleepless nights, etc.

But there are special cases. It is when both people love each other, and circumstances prohibit them from being together. Yes, they are one with their feelings. They give strength to each other. They can surpass anything when they are together. But state of affairs will never allow them to end up happy. Love just isn’t enough to make them stay together. They can never share the promise of eternity. They can never grow old together.

They just can love one another from afar.
