Simple Thoughts

"Laugh, even when you feel too sick or too worn out or tired. 

Smile, even when you're trying not to cry and the tears are blurring your vision. 

Sing, even when people stare at you and tell you your voice is crappy. 

Trust, even when your heart begs you not to. 

Twirl, even when your mind makes no sense of what you see. 

Frolick, even when you are made fun of. 

Sleep, even when you're afraid of what the dreams might bring. 

Run, even when it feels like you can't run any more.

And, always, remember, even when the memories pinch your heart. 

Because the pain of all your experience is what makes you the person you are now. 

And without your experience---you are an empty page, a blank notebook, a missing lyric. 

What makes you brave is your willingness to live through your terrible life and hold your head up high the next day. So don't live life in fear. 

Because you are stronger now, after all the crap has happened, than you ever were back before it started."

choices...

never expect...
never assume...
never ask...
and never demand...
just let it be...
because,
if its meant to be,
it will be...

I was given 3 options... these three would definitely veer me off from the conventional sometimes boring path that I am journeying... these three would either help me or break me... I sometimes refer to it as "do or die"... and now... just now.. I still don't know which among the three I would gladly choose and stand firm midst the consequences... spacing out... I wonder...

"My thoughts has been with this one thing and one thing only... I'm falling in love with you.. and I know it is a mistake. I tried to make my self think that we're just friends not more than that... but my feelings for you grow stronger day by day... I should stop I know... I should not hope nor assume especially because you already have a girlfriend for 6 years... I am trying.. but it is so difficult it's killing me... I want to be with you, and yet, each moment with you right now is so painful... But hey... don't worry I'll be fine... we will be fine... as friends I guess?!?!!!"

"Have you ever loved someone you cannot have? Have you ever wanted or needed someone so badly that even if you're always doing things together, you still want more? Being just friends is no longer enough for you? I know I should be happy, really happy that I always have you around, doing things we like together, but I want more... I want you... I need you.. Why?.... It's because I love you so dearly... can we be more than just friends?.... "

"I am OK... I am certainly fine... hey... nothing's wrong... I have a lot of things in mind.. family, friends, work, or money... certainly money... ha ha ha... but really... everything is great ;)"


These thoughts always linger... which is which?... what to do?... how to do it?... I always use the third one as my escape route whenever he asks me why I am depress... but I guess the third one is not helping me anymore... it's betrayal is so clear that I need to choose between the first two... My inclination is with the first... I want to be honest, true and not demand nor beg for his love... but I have no strength to relay all these to him... I don't know.. for now I just can't...

Whenever I think of myself telling him all my thoughts, everything will shatter as I think of the consequences... He might not want to see me anymore... he might see me as opportunist... he might hate me... these and our friendship, our story ends... I don't want our friendship to end..  a big NO. This is one of my biggest fears... losing him as my friend... I don't think I can take it...

As I sit here and type all these words, I've been weighing my options... but in the end, whichever I will choose, I have to be firm and I have to be strong... Oh please Lord, help me keep my sanity and please give me the strength to endure the consequences of the actions I am doing and all other things I am about to execute....

I have learned that we need to decide what is good or bad for our selves... and we need to back it up with all our energy, with all our powers to remain whole... for after all, we are our choices...

till next time...
