"Huwag ka sanang mapagod na mahalin ako."

Huwag ka sanang mapagod na sabihan akong maganda tuwing umaga. Huwag sanang umabot sa puntong hindi ka na nangingiti sa mga simple kong tawa. Huwag ka sanang magsawa sa mga kwento tungkol sa araw kong masaya. At huwag mo sanang isipin na sayang ang mga oras na nilaan mo na lang sana sa iba.

Huwag ka sanang mapagod na mahalin ako, at pagtiisan lahat ng masamang ugali ko. Huwag mo sanang maisip na nakakapagod pala ang ganito - ang maglimos sa kung ano lang ang kaya ko.

If milk gets bad, it becomes yoghurt. Yoghurt is more valuable than milk. If it gets even worse, it turns to cheese.

Cheese is more valuable than both yoghurt and milk.

And if grape juice turns sour, it transforms into wine, which is even more expensive than grape juice.

You are not bad because you made mistakes. Mistakes are the experiences that make you more valuable as a person.

Christopher Columbus made a navigational error that made him discover America. Alexander Fleming’s mistake led him to invent Penicillin.

Don’t let your mistakes get you down. It is not practice that makes perfect. It is mistakes we learn from that makes perfect!

i never had my favorite thing until i had you.

puwede ba ’yon? na paborito ko lang ang dilaw dahil iyon ang paborito mo? kumikislap ang mga mata ko tuwing nakakakita ako ng bagay na dilaw ang kulay, ikaw kasi ang naaalala ko. alam kong magugustuhan mo, alam kong masisilayan ko ang ngiti mo. kaya nga binibili ko kaagad, kahit pamasahe na lang ang pera ko.

wala rin akong paboritong pagkain—lahat naman basta puwedeng nguyain. pero simula noong nalaman kong mahilig ka sa ginataan, parang araw-araw ko ng cini-crave iyan.

“uy ginataan!”

alam ko kasing lalapitan mo ako at manghihingi ka. tatabihan mo ako, at sabay na naman tayong kakain. kaya ba ganado ako kumain?

hindi ako mahilig sa chocolate—nauumay ako agad. pero noong nalaman kong paborito mo ang combi, naging sweet tooth ako bigla. na para bang kaya kong kumain ng isang pack sa isang upuan, at kahit araw-arawin kong kainin ay hindi ako masusura.

“paano mo nalamang iyan ang paborito ko?”

“kasi paborito ko rin.”

pero ang totoo, wala naman talaga akong paboritong bagay. sadyang natutunan ko lang mahalin ang mga bagay na mahal mo rin. kasi mahal kita. at paborito ko ang bawat detalye ng ikaw—sa hibla ng buhok mo, sa paborito mong kulay, sa hairclip na suot mo, sa paborito mong almusal. paborito kita, at paborito ko ang lahat ng tungkol sa iyo.

kaya kung tatanungin mo ako kung ano ang paborito ko?

regardless of the context, ikaw ang isasagot ko.

ikaw ang paborito ko sa lahat.

Binura ko na.

Ang tagal ko ring hinintay ang araw na 'to. Ilang beses akong nanghinayang sa mga bagay na magpapaalala sa'yo. Natatakot akong burahin 'yong mensahe natin, dahil ito na lang 'yong puwede kong balikan sa tuwing susumpungin ako ng pangungulila sa atensyon mo, sa mahigpit na yakap, sa mga araw na mahal mo pa 'ko.

Sa wakas, kaya ko na.

Salamat sa ilang beses mong pag-iwas noong gustong-gusto kita makausap. Buti na lang, hinayaan mo 'kong maghabol, hanggang sa ako na lang mismo ang huminto dahil sa pagkahapo.

Binura ko na, hindi lang ang mensahe nating dalawa—pati ikaw na mas matimbang ang bigat na dala kaysa pagpapahalaga.

"'Di ko alam kung mahal pa ba kita o nasanay na lang ako kaya hindi ko pa kayang bumitaw sa'yo.

Aaminin ko, nawawalan na ako ng interes, medyo pinipilit ko na lang ituloy at baka sariling problema ko lang ito, pero ewan ko.

Mahal pa siguro kita, pero sa totoo lang, 'di na kita makita sa kinabukasan ko."

May maling pag-ibig sa tamang panahon, may tamang pag-ibig sa maling panahon

[tgjoan]

At kahit sabihin kong

tapos na o hindi kaya ay

wala na talaga akong

natirira pang pagmamahal,

palagi akong may panghihinayang

sa tuwing naririnig ko ang lirikang:

"O kay tagal din kitang minahal"

Oo nga ano,

ang tagal din kitang

nilaban at isinugal.

Paano ko kaya kinaya

ang tumaya sa isang

bagay na alam kong una

pa lang talo na?

Ang pag-ibig, nakakatanga.

Ganito siguro pala

talaga kapag nagmahal ka,

kahit alam mong dehado

bibigay mo kahit walang

tiyansa at pag-asa.

Kahit wala na sa iyong matira.

"Ano ayaw mo na, suko ka na?"

"Hindi naman ako sumusuko, pinapasuko mo ako"

Hindi mo ko inalala, naalala o kahit inaalala, nasanay kang sa bawat ganitong away natin ay palagi akong handa at buo kung tanggapin ka.

Palagi akong nagpapaubaya, sa kabilang banda palagi mo rin namang binabalewala. Para bang sa tanong na: tayo pa ba bukas? Ang maisasagot ko ay "hindi ko na makita"

Kaya itong pagpili kong pag-alis, hindi rin naman lahat iyon naging madali, maka-ilang panalangin din ang inusal ko bago ko iyon pinili.

Napagtanto kong hindi lahat sasapat sa palagi na lamang pag-unawa— nakakasawa. Ngayon napagtano ko na kung ano ang malabo sa atin at kung ano talagang mas malinaw. Mas masakit pala ang pagkapit sa iyo kaysa sa pagbitaw.

Sometimes, I want to sit alone by the sea and think about life. I want to think about how I became so unhappy and how I ended up this way. I want to be away from people for awhile. I want peace and silence. I only want to hear the big waves and the strong wind blow. There are times where I just want to stare at the ocean and think about what's happening to me lately.

Sometimes, I just want to sit there and think that everything will be okay. I don't want to think that I'll be so unhappy forever. I guess I just want to calm my mind for awhile and forget that I'm still hurting. Maybe I just want to be away from the things that make me sad. And maybe all I ever want is to find myself again after feeling so lost.

To you,

This is probably my last letter (or the lack of it) to you. I need to move on; writing letters doesn’t help anymore. To be honest, I don’t have a lot to say, except-

1)I miss you, but I don’t want you back.

2)Loving you has become exhausting, I’m loosening my grip now; i should’ve done that earlier.

3)A part of me will always love you, and I’ll let it. I’ll love you, from a distance. In that distance, we’re still us-we will always be.

4)I’m happy to have known you, to have loved you, to have been a part of your life. But I deserve more than “have been”s and “used to be”s. I deserve more than the remnants of your presence.

5)I don’t blame you. Things end, it’s okay.

6)I hope your heart heals.

7)I will remember you as a bittersweet memory. I’m thankful for both, the ‘bitter’ and the ‘sweet’: they’ve taught me a lot about loving and being loved.

8)You can knock on my door but don’t expect to find home. It’s not the same anymore.

9)Doing this is hard but my heart needs it.

10)Goodbye, finally? Finally.

Yours no longer,

Me.

Unexpectedly -- at some point, your soul will be found by people who you will get healing, with the scars and hurts they didn't cause.

And from there, you'll see yourself trusting again; letting every emotion flow,

allowing your heart to feel,

embracing what's inside of it,

and appreciate that you are all valid!

Thank you for embracing these vulnerabilities. Thank you for allowing this soul to let people in. Thank you for those saving moments.

At the end of it all, we all deserve people who will go and grow through the highs and lows of us!

“God, I’m tired.”⁣⁣

⁣⁣

If you are physically and emotionally tired, it’s okay to step back and rest.⁣⁣

⁣⁣

If you are spiritually drained, or experiencing faith fatigue, it’s okay to get yourself refreshed. Take a pause. Spend time with God and let His Spirit remind you of every promises God has for you.⁣⁣

⁣⁣

You’ve been pouring into others. You’ve been helping other people but you cannot pour from an empty glass. You need God. You need His presence. You need Him to fill your cup again.⁣⁣

⁣⁣

Don’t waste your time and energy thinking whether the glass is half-full or half-empty. Just go and fill the glass up.⁣⁣

⁣⁣

Hindi ka mapupuno ng tao, kahit sarili mo, si Lord lang talaga makakapagpuno sa'yo.⁣⁣

⁣⁣

“But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.” (Isaiah‬ ‭40:31‬)⁣⁣

⁣⁣

Empty yourself out, and let God fill you up. ⁣⁣

⁣⁣

God fills. God recharges. God restores 🙇🏽‍♂️🤍

′′NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, SEE YOU AT HOME.′′

Many people think that living as a couple is always peachy, but this is the real reality...✍🏾

Living with the person you love is not what everyone thinks it is. You don’t wake up early in the morning for breakfast together in bed every morning. It's not snuggling in bed together until you sleep peacefully every night. It's not always having the house clean and food freshly made every day.

Living with the person you love is arguing for simple things, like who forgot to take out the trash, it's sleeping because the day has been hard and you're exhausted, it's arguing over financial issues, it's someone who takes your bed sheets away when you sleep and you wake up in the cold.

But despite everything, every day you expect to see that person eagerly or go home everyday to meet that same person you know loves you and cares about you. You laugh together the moment you do something funny, it's intimacy with each other, it's cooking dinner together as you talk and making it easier because you both had a complicated day.

It's living an emotional crisis and having someone who sits next to you, hugs you and tells you that everything will be fine and you believe it.

It's loving that same person even when it drives you freaking crazy and pulls you out of your box.

Living with the person you love is arguing for silly things constantly, but it's also having a love that many people spend their lives looking for. It’s the times that people try to break you up, but the love was stronger. It's not perfect and it's very difficult to keep it balanced every day, but it's wonderful and the best you can experience, because if it were easy it wouldn't be worth it.

That's why every day you think...”NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS SEE YOU AT HOME.”
