Pain

It has been a year since our uncle left us. Our family never felt such emptiness ever since he was taken away from us by people who don’t value the meaning of family, of life.

We did not only lost a family member, we lost a loved one. Someone who values life as much as we do. My cousins lost their father, I lost an uncle and a godfather, my dad lost his brother, my auntie lost his husband and my grandma? He lost his son.

Imagine how painful it was for us to learn about the death of my uncle, how much more for Inay. A parent should never, ever bury his child because the child should be the one burying his parents, not the other way around.

So it has been a year. Imagine how time flies. We continued living normal just like before. We still do things like a normal family would do whenever we get together but you know, there will always be that hole in everyone’s heart. An emptiness that would never be filled.

Yes, time heals all wounds. But the pain? It never goes away. You just get used to the feeling of being not able to see that person.

But then,GOD HAVE AND WILL ALWAYS HAVE THE BEST PLAN FOR ALL OF US.

All her bags are packed

And she’s ready to go. Well,she went already.  :p

I’ll be spending my year here in the Philippines without my bestfriend. She was bound for Singapore this 10:40 in the morning to work there for a year or a year and a half. It’ll be a big change for me and her family as well.

We see each other almost everyday since our junior year in high school and at least once every week since college and after college. She’s my bestfriend and sort of boyfriend. Lol. Since were both single.

I’ll miss having her around. But a year is faster than we can imagine and before I knew it, she’s back already. I just want her to experience everything she wants to experience in SG and be back more fierce and prettier than ever. I’ll just miss her so much.

 

LIFE

Yes, Life is very fast, indeed. And as the cliche goes, we never know what we got ’til it’s gone. 

Yesterday morning, my friend’s ex-boyfriend passed away because of a motorcycle accident. I only heard about the news last night. I really don’t know the exact details of the incident but I felt a pang of pain and loss because I know that he still has a lot of dreams for his family. He is such a good man. Even though I haven’t seen or talked to him for the last 3 years because of lost of communication and sorts.

I met him when I was 18 years old. He was a nice guy and easy to get along with. I actually wanted him for my friend. They made a good pair but well, they did not end up together. But they remained friends.

He lived a short but meaningful life,I suppose. Even if it was short lived, he enjoyed his life to the fullest. He may has still an unfinished business, but God has a much better plan for him, for all of those who had gone ahead of us. We only appreciate life when someone we know met an untimely death. I think that we should always live our life like it would be our last. Because we never really know when our time here on Earth is up. We’re only borrowing our life from God, He owns it and He is the one who knows when and where He will take it away from us.

So, take time to appreciate everything and everyone in our life. Let’s live, laugh and have lots of love always, in all ways.

March it is!

So yes,it’s officially the third day of March. This year is passing by so quickly and we haven’t even notice it. But I am loving every bit and part of it.

March here in the Philippines marks the start of summer season. Hello sun,bikinis,sunblock,family,friendship and love. I am so excited for you! Well, I just hope March would be good to me, to my family and to you guys, as well.

Enjoy every part of it! 🙂
