A Quote from BW

“It was quite a wedding and as I stood there watching I realized something I’d forgotten a long time ago. Sometimes in life there really are bonds formed that can never be broken. Sometimes you really can find that one person who will stand by you no matter what. Maybe you will find it in a spouse and celebrate it with your dream wedding. But theres also the chance that the one person you can count on for a lifetime, the one person who knows you sometimes better than you know yourself is the same person who’s been standing beside you all along.”

- Marion St. Claire (Bride Wars, 2009)

The movie is just an OK movie. I dont like the idea of best friends becoming rivals. Or maybe I am just not their target market. Nah!

You Lift It Up And Show It Around

..........

Your number one source of hope and your champion supplier of happy thoughts will not always be there to shower you with those.

Sometimes, believe it or not, tables will turn.

Your reliable source can also be your greatest source of pain.

And suddenly you will find yourself staring at nothing. For without it, you just don't know how to build your army of happy thoughts again. And well, wonder if you would ever have an army again soon.

Another Blah

It’s been a while.

Lying awake in bed at night is by far the most uncomfortable,

The most obnoxious, the most annoying

Experience for me.

I don’t know who and which is doing the nudging,

There are a lot of times when I mix up instinct with judgment,

Or when a little anxiety comes to life and consumes me,

Or when past rushes and meets the present,

Those things.

Hmmm.

I get by, sometimes after a few sessions of palpitations,

Sometimes after a constant exchange of sms with a friend,

Sometimes with a pillow under my feet and a blanket

All rolled up under my head.

I get by most of the time, because I try to.

I shrug and doodle and look away.

I get by and wait for the next day to arrive.

A friend once said, “wag na lang”.

I thought, “what a sad , sad statement”.

I used to say that often.

But I am a natural rebel, and a hard headed emotional,

Who draws strength from the weirdos and the

Beautiful songs of Christmas.

I hoard and preserve happy moments.

Those free spirits.

I lie awake at night, almost every night.

I put my pillow under my feet and stare at my

Dark ceiling, or fix my eyes to the black sky outside.

I lie awake, wait for sleep to come

And then thank JC for another beautiful day.

It’s been a while.

"I need to believe in this presence. I dont know how to explain it, but it exists... And it will stay with me all night, because I dont know how to find my way out of here alone."

Ayos.

And now I look forward for more great things this 2009.
