Life Today /vol. 2/




What am I thinking just about right now?



As a prologue to this self-proclaimed novel, let me first describe this wondrous night of 28th where November is just about to lose its glorious turn in this year of the sheep. Well, the noises were really evident with entertaining voices that were overlapping in a series of changing channels; the night has been splashing icey rains since the weather station announced to has been monitoring a possible typhoon; the smell of freshly brewed coffee that was left intact under my nostrils as I was drinking it earlier before I got home; the frenzied emotion I have feeling as I finally kiss my bed goodnight after that long and tiring battle for eternal city traffic. So imagine how it was entirely engaging (or probably not) to put my thoughts into a thousand repeated letters which I can call my blog.



And yeah that was one hell of an introduction!


As I am clinging with the literal scenarios of my daily life, I have come to understand one thing which for the past years I had always taken for granted. Even before I had lost in the sea of people, living beyond the world of others and allowing myself to be dictated by their foul words, I am always this introvert, self-delusional gal that I am right now. It always seems that I am living in a fantasy world wherein waking up is the last thing I could do. It really does matter to me how people will look upon my actions and how will I bring my best self in front of them. I am lost. Yes that's what probably it is. It will take courage to stand on my own ground but now that I have finally realized that I'm not forever be in the shadows of these people, I will say that, I can build my own platform.


"And that one thing...
is finding (or building)
my own ground and let
other people live in my 
world rather than myself
living to theirs."



I am always searching, just like you or them or every living thing in this world. Sometimes, I don't know what I am searching for or why in the first place would I've done it. There is no apparent reason for every why's or a valid action for every how's. And with all of these world's compositions, uncertainty is always certain. So, why we are all living? To whom do we live? What is our purpose?


When do we need to stop?


To be able to reach that long range goal I have been pursuing my entire life, (even if at some point I don't even know what the hell that is) I just keep on thinking where will my happiness be at ease if someday I shall woke up with the realization that finally, finally I have touched it, grabbed it with my own shivering hands. Happiness is the basis for me to really say that I have conquered my dreams and with it, I know that I already built my own platform.



"No, we don't need to stop,
for the uncertainty
will give us the lives full of
wonders and unexplained
emotions."



Right now, as the rain pours and the noises have given me a distinct separation of my heart's desires and people's commands (to take me between their tails), I already had decided to flip open another page of my book, and I will write the version of me without them barking and withdrawing myself from the thinking that I can't. Probably I would be able to stand up higher (to my own platform) and gracefully look upon the scene where I'll proudly say that WELCOME TO MY WORLD!



"and all of these lead to one
thing, a rightful place where
the flowers will never wilt
and where uninterrupted bliss
will never be corrupted"

CAROUSEL'S CAROL

  ALPHABET SERIES /part 3/   Joyful tears cascaded down my cheek,     as the striking piece of memory pops like a gee.     The calendar was still ringing with mental traces,     while the history of my timeline presents. In this 6-cycle carousel, where laughter are dancing with the wind, where colts are running with a hard tail  of course hair, where old folks are turning like 7-year old kids. "  I tell you the past is a bucket of ashes." Carl Sandburg declared. " The future is purchased by the present." Samuel Johnson said. " When all else is lost, the future still remains." Christian Nestell Bovee cited. But for me, all would have treasured in the end.     Singing the lullaby of the ended days,     Pursuing to locked in the invented brains.     It maybe a child's game,     but happiness are all the same. ...

When The World Says It's Over

    "Maybe I'm just too numb to realize that cats will never be with rats forever." WINTER OF 2000     You are my safe haven.     Once, I dreamt of a beautiful castle just like in fairy tales guarded by hundreds of sentinel and served by thous ands of  maids and butlers. But now, I'd just dream of a home. Being a solitary creature, I enjoy every moment with myself, pleasuring the time left in my fabricated hour glass and making my own time machine for rewinding auspicious moments...      Until you came...     Every time I see you outside my porch, half-smiling with the gentle blow of the wind on your face, I realized that I am no longer a loner. That morning, you came with your enchanting militaristic posture. And I know, as you also knew that, that was the reason why my heart started beating with the rhythm th at's e xactly your own.     You h ave  entered to my so-called solitary...

Sa Isang Iglap : Pag-amin (PART 1)

Hindi ko namalayan na iniisip na pala kita. Akala ko naaalala ko lang 'yung mga bagay na nangyari sakin sa isang buong araw. Akala ko normal lamang na maglaro ka sa imahinasyon ko dahil bahagi ka ng labing-dalawang oras ko sa kalsada.  Nagtataka lang ako. 'Nung una, isang tipikal na araw lamang ang pagpasok sa opisina. Isang tipikal na oras lamang ang paghikab sa jeep ng dalawang oras. Isang tipikal na minuto lamang ang pagtambay sa cafeteria nang nag-iisa. Pero ngayon parang ang mga bahaging iyon ay hindi na mauulit kasi dumating ka. Nagtataka lang ako. Sanay akong mag-isa. Lahat ata ng bagay ginagawa ko ng walang tulong. Kumakain sa labas ng mag-isa, nagkakape sa labas ng mag-isa, bumibili ng libro mag-isa, tumatambay sa Happy Lemon ng mag-isa. Pero ngayon tinatanong ko sa sarili ko kung pwede ba kitang yayain minsan? Tambay naman tayo.  Nagtataka lang ako. Bago ka dumating, isa akong pribadong tao, misteryoso sa paningin ng iba. Lahat sinasarili ko,...
