It's over.

How hard or easy it is to say it's over? Is it like saying I LOVE YOU in which you have to be careful or you can just say it anytime you want? 

Saying "It's over" requires a lot of courage. It is not easy to say these words to the one you love or have loved because admit it or not, it will break your heart the moment you see them hurting. There's no easy way to say this. There's no even right word or timing for this. But why do we really have to say "IT'S OVER?"

I can't say that I know everything about this thing. I admit, I still have to learn more. All I have now are the lessons I've learned from my past relationships. 

There are different reasons why these words are being said. There are lots of reasons around, really. Some are true, some are not. But one thing is for sure, once you say those words, you've been hurt and you must face all the consequences of your decision. 

First stage will always be the hardest stage of all. It is easy to smile and laugh but being happy is another side of the story. You will have to fake smile and laughters just to hide the pain but at the end of the day, you know you're not okay. 


It is not easy to think that the person whom you are with for months or years will not be the same person whom you are used to be with but you have to accept everything. It will be hard but all you have to do is think that everything happens for a reason. Just be thankful that once in your life, you've met a person like him/her who will help you become a better person.

I am always saying, it is okay to cry when you're hurt. It is not a sin to cry nor be sad because we are just human. Crying means that we're still  alive. We have to let all the sadness in our heart come out to ease the pain and it is natural to all human being. It is part of the process. What's wrong is to nourish that sadness for a long time. You will lose the chance to see more beautiful things around you. You can be sad, you can cry, but learn when to stop and accept everything.

Acceptance is the key word. Whether breaking-up is your decision or not, always remember that you must accept it. You don't have to rush if you can't do it that fast but slowly, you have to. There are things that will change but if you accept even if you don't understand, everyhting will be easier. 

IT'S OVER. It doesn't mean that it is the end of everything. It just means that there are better things and people to come. He/she may be God's way to help you appreciate life more. As they say, you will not learn how to appreciate more if you didn't experienced how to lose something. God allowed you to lose him/her so that you will be more prepared and strong when the right one comes. 

IT'S OVER. It doesn't mean you cannot be friends but if it is better not to be each other's friend, accept it. Just don't forget to be thankful for all the lessons that you've learned from each other. Though you have to separate ways, be thankful that you once become happy with him/her. You may not be for each other but thank those times that you have known someone like him/her who once made you feel special and important.

IT'S OVER. It doesn't mean that you will stop loving. In fact, it must be your guide to know how to love more the next time. You deserve to be happy. You deserve all the love that the world can offer. Always be thankful to God for letting you know how to give and receive love. It is His gift to all of us.


And if you are in a relationship right now, cherish each day with your love. Trust and respect each other. Above all, pray to God to guide your relationship and let Him be the center of your relationship.

True Love doesn't Give Up

2 nights ago, I watched Bandila in Channel 2 and saw this touching story of Lola Aurelia and Lolo Luis Matias. I felt happy when I knew that Lola Aurelia found Lolo Matias through the help of social media. According to the news, a guy named Reddie Js posted the photo below:


I saw this old woman sitting by herself yesterday at the corner of buendia and roxas blvd yesterday. Surprised to see a bond paper pinned in front and back of her dress with a picture of a missing old man, i asked her about it and she said it is her husband who has been missing for two weeks now. I was touched by her integrity and pained to see her looking for him in that manner so i decided to help her too. I asked permission to post her picture here in fb to be shared by others as help for finding Mr. Luis Matias.

Lolo Matias is 78 years old, he displays childish behaviour so do coax him if found and restrain him from leaving ur sight. Call any of these numbers immediately 09497763122/ 09326095491 / 09474196145, he lives in #164 Dolores St. Pasay City Brgy 66 Zone 08

Do share this around please at sana mahanap agad si Lolo Luis Matias!

The photo was reposted and tweeted a lot of times because it got the heart of every Filipinos who saw this in the internet. Days after it was posted, Lola Aurelia found Lolo Matias. 

Social media once again has proven its power, so as LOVE. Last night, I was watching the news and saw the two old couples hugging each other. My heart melted as I heard Lola Aurelia saying something like, "Masayang masaya talaga ako na kasama ko na ang pinakamamahal ko." Indeed, TRUE LOVE DOESN'T GIVE UP. Who would have thought that an old aged woman will do what Lola Aurelia did. She waited because she believed and God saw it. God never fails anyone who has pure heart and He proved that through Lola Aurelia and Lolo Matias. THIS IS HOW POWERFUL LOVE IS.

Today is Thanksgiving Day. It is time to give thanks to all the blessings that we have in our life. Above all the blessings that we have, let us be thankful that there is Love. Let us give thanks for the LOVE that keeps everyday worthy to live for. God is love so let's thank God above all. 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE! :)

It's been 6 months

It's been months since I've posted something 'from me.' I know, this blog site has been my outlet for the past year, this is where I share my sadness and happiness, and this is where I open who the real 'ME' is. 

Flashback October 2010 when I started to write it all again. I promised myself not to stop writing and blogging because it is where I feel so free. I can write whatever I want and do any blog posts that I can because I own the blog site. I can shout all my sadness and happiness just by writing what's inside my heart. Yes, 'WHAT'S INSIDE MY HEART.' 

Fast forward to second week of May 2011 when my heart was really down. This blog became my outlet. I put all the pain into words to help me (at least). And yes, it did... for a while.

A bit jump to last week of May 2011 when another painful (most painful of all as of the moment) thing happened in my life. I don't know what to do. During that time, I don't know how to put all the pain in words. I promised myself that I will not stop writing because it is an effective way to lessen the pain (next to talking with those people who can understand you) but during that time, I can't. I really don't know where and how to start. I really don't know how. Even talking to anyone became none of my choices. And yes, I faced it all ALONE.

Facing things alone is not so me. It is not me who doesn't share my thoughts. It is not me who wants to cry alone. It is not me who wants to hide my true feelings from my loved ones. Yes, I do hide some things at times when I know I can manage. But during that time, I know I can't bear it all but I HAVE TO.

I have to hide all the pain from everyone because I have a decision to make. It is always good to ask for others opinion but in that case, I don't want to ask anything from anyone. I want the answer to my questions be answered by me, without any judge but myself I don't want any person to support nor rebutt my decision. I want to reflect and this time, make my own decision. It was one of the hardest point in my life and I HAVE TO BE STRONG.

I have to be strong not for myself but for the people around me. I must admit, I don't want to be anybody's burden so I told myself that I can make it. Anyway, I have God who is always with me so I am still not alone. 

What's making all things harder is that I am jobless during that phase of my life. Meaning, I have all the time to cry and feel bad. And I guess it wasn't good so I then planned to find a job. I have to be busy for me not to think of sad thoughts. I know it will be hard to work while on that stage but I have to because I don't want to cry the whole day. Luckily, I found one and that helped me.

Slowly, I felt that the wounds are being healed. Slowly, I have answered those questions in my mind. Slowly, I have made my decision which cannot be broken by anyone. Slowly, i opened up with my friends and loved ones. Slowly, I feel free again.

Fast forward today. I am writing and doing this blog because I think I am (though not totally) ready to share what's in 'me' now. I cannot tell all in a detailed manner because there are some things that are already healed and must not be opened again, but this may be a good start. 

It's been 6 months and I guess I have made the right decision. As what I am always saying, HAPPINESS IS OUR CHOICE. What happened was not my choice but it's my choice on how am I going to face it. It is always up to us on how we will react when hard times happen.

For me, I decided to close the door, reflect, and forgive first before making any decision. People may not understand me for choosing to be with myself during those times but real friends will not ask any question and will just support me (and they did). I choose to cry not to be drowned in sadness but to let the pain out and I succeed. Now, I can feel the freedom that I want. 

It's been 6 months, almost, I guess, and now I am ready to choose happiness over sadness. Now I am ready to share 'myself' again. 

To my friends, family, and to the people who never judged me and my decision, 
A BIG THANK YOU! 

Life, thank you for all the lessons. Keep it coming for me to learn more. 
Lord, thank You because You let me understand how right it is to hold on to You more during the hard times.
Love, I will continue to share you with others and will never get tired of doing it.
