♥ Veritas Liberabit Vos (truth shall set you free) ♥

I had a great time talking with Patty over the phone last night. Patty is a friend with a God given talent of humor. Oh! Let's just say that Patty belongs to what we call a 'third sex'. Hahahaha.. Bayot ba? Well, I miss that friend talaga. He/she makes me laugh everytime we had a conversation. He was my movie buddy as well.

Anyways, that night when we talked. I had a lot of realizations. A week ago he had this wall post on facebook stating that 'It was so refreshing to tell the truth!' I asked him who's the particular person he was pointing out on that post. He said that it was nothing. That its just his mind boggling him with some non-sense. Then later on he said that being at peace with someone whom you have a conflict with for a long time and if you would just let time heal all your wounds. At the end, everything will take place on it's own without asking why it happened, what causes the gap. Things like that.

It is indeed refreshing to tell the truth. It may be a painful truth, a joyous truth, a tearful truth. One of the fears that I have is knowing the truth. But I always want to tell the truth. I'm dealing with a person right now whom I'm scared to know the truth about us. A person whom I can't figure out how to spell the 'T-R-U-T-H' about us. A person whom the two of us can't find the courage to explain the truth why we falter at the end. A person whom I told the truth but told me a 'lie'?

Ganyan lang talaga ang buhay. If it's really in your heart to tell something true with an open heart to face the consequences then go on! Its all about winning and losing. The truth will set you free!

♥ Tuesdays with Morrie ♥

Have you tried watching a flick that burst you out into tears because of the flick's storyline? Oh dude! Swear! 'Tuesdays with Morrie' filled my eyes with tears from the start till the end. It was so insane that I was crying in front of my monitor. It hurts..really! It hurts to see Morrie especially when he mourns at midnight. I love the part where he changed Mitch perspective about time and life.

Truly indeed the movie reminds us of our parents and our grandparents, about life in living with our regrets and pride,money, time. Everything that we faced on our daily lives. I was moved actually. Different realizations and understanding crossed my mind.

I urge my sister to watch the flick and warned her about it cause it will torn her heart talaga. Hahaha..she said she had no time from all my insanity. But then she watched it and not even have the courage to finish it. She can't take to see Morrie with his illness.

Let's be grateful actually and cherish the moments with our loved ones. Thank you Lord for still keeping me up and for putting my heart at peace. To God be the Glory! If you haven't seen this flick, then better watch it now.

♥ Twin Victory! ♥

History repeats itself! (I should say) Since the opening of the season, I was in great hopes that the Blue Eagles will have a back-to-back championship and it was! I was not active this season actually unlike the previous years that I would not attend class just to wathced their games, I mean I haven't watched their games consecutively. As to sort things, I saw their game this season only ones and not even finishing the quarter. Before I say my thoughts and my super tremendous emotion for their victory let me share to you what happen to me that afternoon.

Really I did not witnessed the action. I was in school, particularly at the dance troupe office. We we're watching Titanic. The night before the championship I prayed and told myself that whatever the outcomes tomorrow, I'll accept it.(base on UE's performance last Sunday) Now, while watching the movie. There was this part wherein Rose will throw that diamond necklace and she was holding it with her palm close. I told myself that if the color would be green then Ateneo won't be the champion.

My heart was racing out. The moment she opened it. I was so shocked to see that the necklace was color blue. Oh damn! How could it be? What does it mean? I did not take it as a sign in the first place but it was. My friend keep on texting and updating me about the game. I had an exam that day. So i left my other phone to my dance mate so that I can focus my mind with my exam and not to the game.

After taking my so nose bleeding, brain draining biology exam. I open my phone reading on my friend's message saying that she can feels a championship in favor for Ateneo. I currently rushed to the dance hall and to think it was 6th floor but i never felt tired or what. The only thing that's on my mind was "...was thank you Lord..thank you Lord..".

The whole evening during our dance rehearsal, my mask had a big smile. A dancemate even said 'masaya ka nga talaga..abot langit ang ngiti mo.' Hahahaha....yeah right!

Woohoo! Kudos again to you Blue Eagles and Eaglets! That's what you call a Twin Victory. I could not ask for more this year because of it. Masaya na naman ang isang buong taon ko. Next year, I won't assume for a back-to-back-to-back title but if it's meant to be that way then to God be the Glory! Ang sarap talaga maging Atenista!

*...last year my friends and I have our own version of bonfire. Suppose to be we sholud have it yesterday but for some reasons we postponed it. Hahai...Go Ateneo!

Tagubilin at Habilin by Jose F. Lacaba

I want to share with you a poem written by Jose F. Lacaba.

The poem was so nice because it's really the reality within us.

Here...understand and learn from it....

Tagubilin at Habilin by Jose F. Lacaba

Mabuhay ka, kaibigan!
Mabuhay ka!
Iyan ang una’t huli kong
Tagubilin at habilin:
Mabuhay ka!

Sa edad kong ito, marami akong maibibigay na payo.
Mayaman ako sa payo.

Maghugas ka ng kamay bago kumain.
Maghugas ka ng kamay pagkatapos kumain.
Pero huwag kang maghuhugas ng kamay para lang makaiwas sa sisi.
Huwag kang maghuhugas ng kamay kung may inaapi
Na kaya mong tulungan.

Paupuin sa bus ang matatanda at ang mga may kalong na sanggol.
Magpasalamat sa nagmamagandang-loob.
Matuto sa karanasan ng matatanda
Pero huwag magpatali sa kaisipang makaluma.

Huwag piliting matulog kung ayaw kang dalawin ng antok.
Huwag pag-aksayahan ng panahon ang walang utang na loob.
Huwag makipagtalo sa bobo at baka ka mapagkamalang bobo.
Huwag bubulong-bulong sa mga panahong kailangang sumigaw.

Huwag kang manalig sa bulung-bulungan.
Huwag kang papatay-patay sa ilalim ng pabitin.
Huwag kang tutulog-tulog sa pansitan.

Umawit ka kung nag-iisa sa banyo.
Umawit ka sa piling ng barkada.
Umawit ka kung nalulungkot.
Umawit ka kung masaya.

Ingat lang.

Huwag kang aawit ng “My Way” sa videoke bar at baka ka mabaril.
Huwag kang magsindi ng sigarilyo sa gasolinahan.
Dahan-dahan sa matatarik na landas.
Dahan-dahan sa malulubak na daan.

Higit sa lahat, inuulit ko:

Mabuhay ka, kaibigan!
Mabuhay ka!
Iyan ang una’t huli kong
Tagubilin at habilin:
Mabuhay ka!

Maraming bagay sa mundo na nakakadismaya.
Mabuhay ka.
Maraming problema ang mundo na wala na yatang lunas.
Mabuhay ka.

Sa hirap ng panahon, sa harap ng kabiguan,
Kung minsan ay gusto mo nang mamatay.
Gusto mong maglaslas ng pulso kung sawi sa pag-ibig.
Gusto mong uminom ng lason kung wala nang makain.
Gusto mong magbigti kung napakabigat ng mga pasanin.
Gusto mong pasabugin ang bungo mo kung maraming gumugulo sa utak.

Huwag kang patatalo. Huwag kang susuko.

Narinig mo ang sinasabi ng awitin:
“Gising at magbangon sa pagkagupiling,
Sa pagkakatulog na lubhang mahimbing.”
Gumising ka kung hinaharana ka ng pag-ibig.
Bumangon ka kung nananawagan ang kapuspalad.

Ang sabi ng iba: “Ang matapang ay walang-takot lumaban.”
Ang sabi ko naman: Ang tunay na matapang ay lumalaban
Kahit natatakot.

Lumaban ka kung inginungodngod ang nguso mo sa putik.
Bumalikwas ka kung tinatapak-tapakan ka.
Buong-tapang mong ipaglaban ang iyong mga prinsipyo
Kahit hindi ka sigurado na agad-agad kang mananalo.

Mabuhay ka, kaibigan!
Mabuhay ka!
Iyan ang una’t huli kong
Tagubilin at habilin:
Mabuhay ka!

...nakaka struck yung poem..hindi ba?...

♥ Capsule of Peace ♥

I'm not sick when I did it, I'm not even drunk when I did it. I don't know what leads me last Wednesday to have the initiative to approach him. Really that person have been special to me but as we have it, certain point in our lives we have this confusion and me personally was such a 'sumhanon' type.

We're not okay actually the moment we leave for Davao and it even get worst right after Davao. Some may deny it that their pride takes them but in our case I really let my pride get in the way. I know my pride will give me the space to renew and rethink the events around me.

Enough of this..I'm glad we're okay now. You know who you are. I'm not assuming that we can still treat each other the way we have it before. I don't have plans either to bridge the gap between us. Maybe God was the one who gave me the capsule of peace. Thank you Lord for the courage and for understanding me those times that I was confused and hesitant. You know me Lord and you know the plans that I have for the future.
