Last Sunday, I was chatting with someone about how beautiful weddings are and got asked if I was a cynic or a romantic when it comes to how the movies Before Sunrise and Before Sunset will end. I guess, I would openly say a cynic but then I know I am really a romantic (darn).
I am borrowing a photo from Orlando Cajigal (you can check his works here) and putting my own thoughts on the subject.
By this, I mean marriage or any life-long commitment. It is not about having it perfect. It is about not giving up.

This Texas is going into my playlist right now!
Say What You Want
Twenty seconds on the back time
I feel you on the run
Never lived too long to make right
I see you're doing fine
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide I can no longer run
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide for it's no longer fun
Well, you can say what you want
But it won't change my mind
I'll feel the same about you
And you can tell me your reasons
But it won't change my feelings
I'll feel the same about you
What I am is what you want of me
Now that I'm not there
Took the tables away from you
It's turned that I don't care
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide I can no longer run
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide for it's no longer fun
I've said goodnight try to sleep tight
Just dream of me
Go close your eyes cause I'll close mine
The sun will shine from time to time

Paano ko sasabihin kung ako mismo, hindi ko alam kung ano na nga ba ang nararamdaman ko?
In English, how can I tell you what I feel towards him if I don’t even know what I would call it?
But thank you for wishing me happiness. I wish myself the same.

Jumping off into the great blue sea is nothing compared to a heartbreak. I will jump off anytime, everytime in exchange for a prayer that I'd be spared from the latter.
I have great hope that everything's going to be better sooner :)

"You are sometimes hasty and emotional in your judgments and have difficulty sorting out honest from deceitful people. When you like someone, you often let yourself be conned."
Tell me about it.
Tell me about it.
*Insert MY name here* cannot be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being.
Thank you, Oscar Wilde.

Dear Ate Kai,
SHALOM my beautiful daughter!
I am sorry for invading your privacy by bringing along with me Ms Au. It was uncalled for since I know that you treasure short moments that we have together to bond as mother and daughter. I am sorry too if it seems to you that I do not know myself that well till this time. I am now 53 years old and to many I seem to have no plans or visions or dreams. But I do have them only that for most of my life I seemed to have chosen to do what must be done at the moment even if they seem way out of line for me to be able to reach them. Some of these plans, visions and dreams have already been fulfilled and I would like to thank the Lord for making them come true. These some include being able to see all my children finish their studies and allow them to stretch their wings and fly away where their hearts and minds would like to go. It is seeing them slowly shape their own destinies and fulfill their own purposes with their own talents, skills, values and dreams, visions, hopes and dreams, at their own phase, in their own ways. I believe that somehow I am a part of that growing, spreading and flying of wings. Perhaps to the three of you I have not been the best of what your image and concepts are of what a mother should be. Yet I would like to tell you now that I am still doing my best to be the mother you wish and hope for but which maybe mediocre efforts since I still cannot reach your expectations of who I should be and what I must become.
What do I really want to do may not really matter because it may fit the grand scheme of things in what God has planned and has in store for me. I feel and think that I am at my best when I write, train people, heal them, help and teach them how to prevent themselves from getting very sick; I am also very happy and content just to spend few hours and days with all of you under one roof yet equally happy just to see your faces when I close my eyes and pray for your safety, protection, guidance from our God. But we all know that each one of you and me must go on our separate ways most days of the year to allow ourselves to grow and become more loving, forgiving, healing and a blessing to one another and other people we encounter. This is our heritage as a family, our roots, that no matter where our feet and wings lead us; that whatever happens with our plans, dreams and vision;, we will always be welcome with open arms because we deeply love each other (though some of us cannot show it on the outside, masking it sometimes with words, thoughts and actions we do not really mean to hurt) and respect each other’s differences.
I love each one of you and in my own small ways, I know in my heart that I have shown this love though not in how you may want them to be and I would continue doing so and pray with me that I learn how to value more your intentions of taking care of me while I try improving my motherhood skills which actually are growing difficult to sharpen as my teeth, knees, joints and bones are giving in, as I my sight and hearing are getting impaired; as my body, heart and mind slowly surrenders to the calm and peace of age, be rest assured though that my spirit and soul would grow stronger to nourish even more and nurture that love I have for each one of you.
I would like to salute your achievements Ate because you have done many things excellently for your age. My prayer will be unceasing for your continued health, safety, protection, and a lot more that silently your heart wishes for as I would your two brothers Kuya Jeff and Jaja; including Camille and Jamille too.
Do take care of yourself always. I will be with you after the elections po and if God allows it stay a little longer than usual.
Hugs, kisses
Love and prayers
GOD BLESS
Mama
