But maybe it’s better to not know what the real reason is than to know that there’s nothing at all. And so, as I rode this train which reminded me of that day, I’m letting go of my what-ifs and giving up on trying to find the reasons in our break up that has now just become a memory I’d never want to remember again.
I lost a friend 25 years ago. She was kidnapped from Goodfellow Air Force Base and raped and murdered. I have thought of her many times over the years and have prayed for her family. My heart still hurts more than I thought. The tears came so quickly at just the thought of her that I alarmed both my kids.

They say that when you are playing chess, you should study your moves well. Otherwise, it would be a checkmate! And this is how exactly the Philippine government feels with our current situation, the lockdown because of the pandemic, that is Covid-19.
Di ko alam kung bakit sa simple mong ngiti akoy masaya..

Even if it's all wrong.
What with the secret heartache
You carry within
Forget about him and move on
Never look back

You have a choice to stay away from negativity. You have a choice to change for the better. All of us have made mistakes, all of us have been hurt, it is up to you how you would like to move forward.
That moment when I looked

My legs didn’t move.
My mind couldn’t make sense. I stayed back.

Not just drops of salty water
but remnants of painful slaughter
of heart and the soul perhaps the psyche
of a person who did not know the
way to beg for consideration or mercy
Ferris Alizer was a closet geek. At work he seems proper and professional, just a usual adult doing his job well but whenever he went home after a long day, his only escape from the stressful society was playing games.

Pinag titinginan ng mata, Tila masama ang balak nila, Mga matang mapag pantasya, Wala naman akong kasalanan diba?, Hindi haba ng suot ko ang makakapag patigil, Sa kanilang pag iisip ako ay gigil, Inosenteng katawan na kanilang pinagnanasaan, Kanilang moralidad…
