Ponder
Be the voice that speaks for those who have no voices, be the strength for those who feel like it's a cruel world and the only best thing there is to do is to end this life, and be someone who's light infects others to be more optimistic.
Regrets, Acceptance and Forgiveness
I am sorry. I'm really sorry that I didn't notice my own shortcomings and focused on your flaws. I'm really sorry that I wasn't able to accept you fully and forced the things I want instead of listening to you.

Digmaan
Hindi sila mga kabalyero na nakasakay sa kani- kanilang kabayo
Wala silang hawak na bala
Wala silang hawak na pana, espada at ano pang sandata
Walang Gana
Oo, nakakapagod na ang makipabuno sa takbo ng buhay ngayon. Minsan ay naisip mo na rin na sana ay maglaho ka nalang na parang bula upang matapos na ang lahat. Lahat ng nararanasan mong pagkabagot, paghihirap at pagka antala sa iyong buhay.
