I'm older, smarter and GREAT :D

"Someday, we’ll run into each other again, I know it.
Maybe I’ll be older and smarter and just plain better.
If that happens that’s when I’ll deserve you.
But now, at this moment, you can’t hook your boat to mine,
because I’m liable to sink us both.”


I read this from one of the notes I wrote way back and I'm definitely older, smarter and GREAT!!!

I woke up into a nightmare

I didn't want to wake up.

I was having a much better time asleep.

And that's really sad.

It was almost like a reverse nightmare,

like when you wake up from a nightmare you're so relieved.

I woke up into a nightmare.

Felt like the 4th of July. Crap.

I remember riding in a taxi one afternoon between very tall buildings under a mauve and rosy sky;

I began to bawl because I had everything I wanted and knew ......

I would never be so happy again

:(

Life is all about ASS

Let's celebrate like you're 21!

Alam mo ba 2 years ago, muntik ko na makalimutan ang birthday mo? Salamat na lang sa friendster ( uso pa sya nun) notifications, hindi sya nakalimot. >:) Kaya isa sa mga naging new years resolution ko ay ilagay sa calendar ng phone ko lahat ng mga birthdays ng mahal ko sa buhay. It worked last year. Konting kalembang lang ng alarm sa umaga ng September 21, naalala ko na! No sweat. Hahaha! But fate played tricks on me, nasira ang phone. Digital na ang karma, ang bilis!

O baka naman magdamdam ka, mahahalata ang edad pag nagiging sensitive na. =)) Hindi ko naman nakalimutan, sadya lang mahina ako sa mga numero. Ilalakad ko sa senado na gawing letter ng alphabet ang mga dates ng birthday para hindi naman mahirapan yung utak ko. Pag nag overworked ito baka mag short circuit. Baka mag ala-LORELIE ako at maghanap ng "tunay na pag ibig" =))

Alam mo yung pressure sken pag birthday mo? ( as if naman gumagastos ako noh? haha) Alam ko kasi pipigain ko na naman yung utak ko sa pag sulat, mapantayan ko lang yung mga mala-encyclopedia mong nobela. Plus, baka ipa-translate pa ito ng nyowa mo, patay na ang maliligayang araw ko. Pero since birthday mo cge, i-translate natin. Since uso naman ngaun ang mga translator, (kay Shamcey, hindi. ) let's give way to Mr. google translate. :))

So pano? Birthday mo nga. I hope you appreciate the amount of thought I put into a decision not to get you a birthday gift. >:) And I won't change my mind. Hahaha!

Happy Birthday bebegerl!

Someone from across the pacific remembers your birthday without FB reminder.

LOL ( lots of love?)

Letters to Juliet

‎"What" and "If" are two words as non-threatening as words can be. But put them together side-by-side and they have the power to haunt you for the rest of your life: What if? What if? What if? I don't know how your story ended but if what you felt then was true love, then it's never too late. If it was true then, why wouldn't it be true now? You need only the courage to follow your heart. I don't know what a love like Juliet's feels like - love to leave loved ones for, love to cross oceans for but I'd like to believe if I ever were to feel it, that I will have the courage to seize it."

:)

Birthday GIRL-ie :)

Your birthday is a reminder how I was redeemed from an unbearably boring childhood without you coming out first. :) Life maybe tough now, but it couldn't get any toughiER for a toughIEST you... plus US your sidekicks.

We LOVE you dearly.

Happy Birthday everdearestbestcousinfriend! :)



"So WE walk under a bus, WE got hit by a train. Keep falling in love, which is kinda the same. WE've sunk out at the, crashed OUR car, got insane. And it felt so good, We wanna do it again. "

Close, Open, Happiness!

How my heart swelled with unfathomable elation just merely watching you. How your giggles brought my soul on euphoric heights and gradually snatched me out of this worried mind.

I skipped a lot of the "cuddling", swear I'd be missing more.

Sure you grow fast, but I love you dearly twice your size.

A FATHER'S RULES FOR FINDING FULFILLMENT

A must read:

A FATHER'S RULES FOR FINDING FULFILLMENT

Be courteous, be punctual, always say please and thank you, and be sure to hold your knife and fork properly. Others take their cue on how to treat you from your manners.

Be kind, considerate and compassionate when others are in trouble, even if you have problems of your own. Others will admire your selflessness and will help you in due course.

Show moral courage. Do what is right, even if that makes you unpopular. I always thought it important to be able to look at myself in the shaving mirror every morning and not feel guilt or remorse. I depart this world with a pretty clear conscience.

Show humility. Stand your ground but pause to reflect on what the other side are saying, and back off when you know you are wrong. Never worry about losing face. That only happens when you are pig-headed.
Learn from your mistakes. You will make plenty so use them as a learning tool. If you keep making the same mistake or run into a problem, you’re doing something wrong.

Avoid disparaging someone to a third party; it is only you who will look bad. If you have a problem with someone, tell them face to face.

Hold fire! If someone crosses you, don’t react immediately. Once you say something it can never be taken back, and most people deserve a second chance.

Have fun. If this involves taking risks, so be it. If you get caught, hold your hands up.

Give to charity and help those who are less fortunate than yourselves: it’s easy and so rewarding.

Always look on the upside! The glass is half full, never half empty. Every adversity has a silver lining if you seek it out.

Make it your instinct always to say ‘yes’. Look for reasons to do something, not reasons to say no. Your friends will cherish you for that.

Be canny: you will get more of what you want if you can give someone more of what they desire. Compromise can be king.

Always accept a party invitation. You may not want to go, but they want you there. Show them courtesy and respect.

Never ever let a friend down. I would bury bodies for my friends, if they asked me to . . . which is why I have chosen them carefully.

Always tip for good service. It shows respect. But never reward poor service. Poor service is insulting.

Always treat those you meet as your social equal, whether they are above or below your station in life. For those above you, show due deference, but don’t be a sycophant.

Always respect age, as age equals wisdom.

Be prepared to put the interests of your sibling first.

Be proud of who you are and where you come from, but open your mind to other cultures and languages. When you begin to travel (as I hope you will), you’ll learn that your place in the world is both vital and insignificant. Don’t get too big for your breeches.

Be ambitious, but not nakedly so. Be prepared to back your assertions with craftsmanship and hard work.

Live every day to its full: do something that makes you smile or laugh, and avoid procrastination.

Give of your best at school. Some teachers forget that pupils need incentives. So if your teacher doesn’t give you one, devise your own.

Always pay the most you can afford. Never skimp on hotels, clothing, shoes, make-up or jewellery. But always look for a deal. You get what you pay for.

Never give up! My two little soldiers have no dad, but you are brave, big-hearted, fit and strong. You are also loved by an immensely kind and supportive team of family and friends. You make your own good fortune, my children, so battle on.

Never feel sorry for yourself, or at least don’t do it for long. Crying doesn’t make things better.

Look after your body and it will look after you.

Learn a language, or at least try. Never engage a person abroad in conversation without first greeting them in their own language; by all means ask if they speak English!

And finally, cherish your mother, and take very good care of her.

In Denial

Deep within a forest, a little turtle began to climb a tree. After hours of effort, he reached the top, jumped into the air waving his front legs and crashed to the ground.

Once he'd recovered, he slowly climbed the tree again, jumped, and fell once more to the ground.

He tried again and again, while a couple of birds sitting on a branch watched his sad efforts.

Finally, the female bird turned to her mate and said.

"Do you know what, darling? I think it's time to tell him he's adopted."

FACT:

People are delusional.

COLD-HARD-FACT:

They are unaware that they are being delusional.

MATTER-OF-FACTly:

It's a disease most commonly referred to as " IN DENIAL"

What I need to learn about LIFE, I learned from PANTALON

Oo, pantalon.

Hindi ako mahilig bumili ng pantalon, once in a blue moon lang. Bukod sa hindi ako madalas magpantalon dahil may uniform sa trabaho, hindi ito mabilis maluma kaya matagal ko mapapakinabangan. Sa factory outlet LANG ako bumibili, minimal damaged kaya MURA LANG. :D It may sound peculiar, but life really did flash before me right in the middle of the "fitting room" and that 5 cold jeans lying on the floor.

MAHIRAP PUMILI LALO NA KUNG MARAMING OPTIONS

"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get." Very common among women lalo na when it comes to shopping. Marami kailangan i-consider, the FIT, the PRICE, and the QUALITY and/or BRAND. Ang problema, hindi ito all in one seasoning pack or 3 in 1 coffee, syempre pag branded mas mahal at hindi araw araw ay SALE. The worst part, YOU HAVE TO MAKE A CHOICE.

In this life, options never run out of stock. Whoever said " Wala na kasi akong choice kundi.. " was lying. Options are choices in a different set of letters. Nag eexist sila sa lahat ng sitwasyon sa buhay. We just have to pick out one that suits us in a given situation. Pick wise for a trick comes with it - NO RETURN, NO EXCHANGE.. only LESSON LEARNED.

HUWAG IPILIT KUNG HINDI KASYA

Kung size 27 ka pero 26 ang pinili mo, malamang hindi kasya. Minsan depende din sa brand, kahit size mo na hindi pa rin fit. Pero ipagpipilitan mo ba kahit alam mo na ikaw lang ang magsa-suffer in the end? Give up. FIND THE ONE THAT FITS RIGHT.

Lemme get this straight and simple. Mahal mo. Mahal ka ba? Sya ang buhay mo. Mabubuhay sya ng wala ka. Iniiyakan mo. Umiiyak dahil sa iba. It's like squeezing a square peg into the round hole hoping it's malleable enough to go in. Have you succeeded? Yes, in deforming the hole... deforming yourself.

KUNG MEDYO LUWAG, MAG SINTURON

Isang criteria ko sa pagpili ng pantalon ay "ALLOWANCE". Kailangan may space pa lalo na sa bewang pag marami ako nakain, lumalaki ang tyan ko. So it goes without saying, maluwag sya pag gutom ako. :)) I need BELT POWER! In as much as we need some SPACE TO BREATH, we also need SUPPORT to keep us IN PROPER PLACEMENT. Ang mga BELTS sa buhay natin ay ang ating pamilya at mga kaibigan, THEY WILL NEVER LET US DOWN.

Ang PANTALON. bow!

Generic

1. morning squabbles --talking 'bout my "5 more minutes in the bed" thingy-- with myself.

2. juggling my innate Jekyll and Hyde faces throughout the day.

3. "to eat or not to eat? that is the question"--battle, more on rant.

4. absence of nocturnal entertainment (tv, movie marathon, etc.) or the presence of it ( bugs and more bugs) is an equal catastrophe my poor brain deals with.

5. off to sleep, only to go back to number 1 again and again.

HOW GENERIC.

High Blood PLEASURE

That delight of being able to languidly couch on the swivel..

zest with uninterrupted "view of the unknown" ( tulala ) >:)

it's a disease everyone has acquired.

Hell must have frozen over.

Ergo, the devils migrated.

I can hear the bells

I can hear the bells

Today's just the start 'cause

I can hear the bells and,

Till death do us part and,

Even when we die we'll look down from up above

Remembering the night that we two fell in love,

We both will shed tear and

he'll whisper as we're reminiscin'

I am very fond of weddings, the traditional one. Given the fact that I was accustomed at a very young age ( hmm, 9yrs old?) to the family's bread and butter, Couture or in layman's term; DRESSMAKING. But before you get the wrong idea, it wasn't like high end ala Rajo Laurel fashion line, just right on the budget, everyone-can-afford type of dresses. I, particularly, eyed on wedding gowns my mother would delicately suture, probing each details, defining each line. Being that much acquainted with wedding gowns, never was I enthralled with the thought of donning one someday on " you-know-what ". Needless to say, I had enough of my dress-up days.

Now, what's the point of this blog?

Shoo the bugs away, I ain't gonna marry soon. But my alter-ego will in 2 years time. :) She just got engaged! And I can hear the bells, is that a crime?

That excitement as I watch how Nanay patch it all together. Hmm.

Call me BAD, I would love it. :D

She is beautiful…. her mother says so

She is the most intelligent person…. in the company of idiots

She has a very shapely figure…. but all in the wrong places

She has a lot of talents….that are best kept hidden

She is very sweet…. sickenly so

She is very friendly…short of being a stalker

She is a kind person… the kind you stay away from

She loves dogs….as kaldereta

She has a sense of humor… that others don't get

She is honest…when not caught

She is very creative…specially in making excuses

She is heartwarming…like a heartburn

She can be counted on… to always screw things up

Weather News Update

Typhoon Rage is still in the area of responsibility. A tropical cyclone such as this, normally, is a build up from low pressure. But this one is unique — it has a lot of high pressures coming from all sides.

Expect numerous thunderstorms that will produce gusty angerwinds and/or flooding tears rains in the coming days. So it would be best to take all necessary precautions as this typhoon is still gaining its strength from the continuous upsurge of high pressures.

This tropical cyclone is wreaking havoc everywhere. Hopefully, it is not powerful enough to produce tidal waves or spawning tornadoes. But if it does, everyone is expected to run for their lives. :))

If you are in the eye of the storm, please do not be deceived by the clear skies and light winds. The storm is not yet over —- for after the calm comes the torrent rains.

This is a warning, please evacuate soon.

PRICELESS

That excitement...

.. the moment the plane lift its nose for takeoff;

the calmness when it finally settled on its required altitude,

“PRICELESS”.

Because of you, in the gardens of blossoming

Flowers I ache from the perfumes of spring.

I have forgotten your face, I no longer

Remember your hands; how did your lips

Feel on mine?

Because of you, I love the white statues

Drowsing in the parks, the white statues that

Have neither voice nor sight.

I have forgotten your voice, your happy voice;

I have forgotten your eyes.

Like a flower to its perfume, I am bound to

My vague memory of you. I live with pain

That is like a wound; if you touch me, you will

Make to me an irreperable harm.

Your caresses enfold me, like climbing

Vines on melancholy walls.

I have forgotten your love, yet I seem to

Glimpse you in every window.

Because of you, the heady perfumes of

Summer pain me; because of you, I again

Seek out the signs that precipitate desires:

Shooting stars, falling objects."

- Pablo Neruda-

I Will Still Love You

Talking 'bout how my thoughts run randoms over the things that matter most.

I WILL STILL LOVE YOU

Love 'em and leave 'em

Give them the air

Hurt and deceive them

Say you don't care

Break their hearts and let them fall

Like rain on your back stairs

Then call me up tomorrow

You know I'll still be there

When the moon disappears forever

And the sun shines electric blue

And the mountains and trees tumble into the sea

To rest there for eternity

No matter what you do

I will still love you

So if all your bridges go up in flames

And if all your lovers strike you too tame

Or some sad song of love you hear

Can make you call my name

I will be there in a minute

And you know I'll feel the same

When the moon disappears forever

And the sun shines electric blue

And the mountains and trees tumble into the sea

To rest there for eternity

No matter what you do

I will still love you

So the weary traveler

Tired of passing through

Stops to get his bearings

And stays on to wait for you

When the moon disappears forever

And the sun shines electric blue

And the mountains and trees tumble into the sea

To rest there for eternity

No matter what you do

I will still love you

I will still love you

Summer, Cebu and Me.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.

Oh how summertime reminded me so much of Cebu. It only took a month long beach hop-till-we-drop, endless roadtrips, luscious foods, unlimited redhorse, funfilled days and boozeblast nights, and the beyond compare "LOL" moments in between. Those and all gradually changed my life. I was never the same. Summer have never been and will never be the same.

Pangungulila

Nangungulila ako sa'yo.

Hindi ko maapuhap ang mga katagang magbibigay ng kahulugan sa lambong na dulot ng pangungulila ko sa presensya mo. Nais kong ikulong ka sa aking mga bisig ngayon ngunit tila malupit sa akin ang panahon at pagkakataon. Napakalayo mo.

Lubhang napakahirap pagmasdan ang pagpapalitan ng dilim at liwanag kaalinsabay ng unti-unting ring napipitas na panahon na wala ka sa aking tabi. Ang mga umaga na tila naghihintay din na masilayan ka sa kanilang pagdungaw sa silangan. Ang mga takipsilim na wari'y nananabik din mahimlay sa init ng iyong kandili at kapagdaka'y iuuyog ng malamyos na hangin ang alingahot ng maghapon sasal ang taimtim na dasal na sana sa bukang liwayway ikaw ang unang magisnan. Subalit hungkag ang mga isiping ito. Napakalayo mo.

Nangungulila ako ng labis sayo mahal kong.... Mindoro.

:)

Essay and How I passed grade school.

" What I want to be when I grow up? "- There at one corner of that four walled, well ventilated classroom, was this kid stuck in that question.

I was not a witty kid. I never excel in anything aside from " most sickly" neither received awards except " steroids sucker " (as what my doctor called me) for taking in 12 tablets of steroids a day, a maximum intake for a then 10 yr old me.

You can now visualize from that point how "school" treated me and vise versa.

Probably the most brutal part of it was taking the exams I literally didn't have the foggiest idea. Next best thing was failing. Ah. However, there was one subject I consistently and inexplicably passed with flying colors.

ENGLISH. naks!

You might get the wrong idea, I was not good in grammar or literature for that matter. I understood a few and the rest were pain in the head. You know the bonus part? Essay. Teehee. Thank God I mastered the art of blabbing in a ranting sort of way. :) And to whoever invented it, i can kiss your ass now fella. :))

After getting all soaked up with my own sweat, I started to write a sentence.

" When I grow up I want to be Happy. " All it took was a sentence and I was on my way to 10 points score for an excellent essay.

Well, that was history. =)) :))

Sharing my cup :)

Limang minuto lamang ang kinailangan ko upang pagtibayin at simulan ang aking desisyon na PAGBABAGO. Bagaman ilang araw rin na minumuni muni ng payak kong utak kung gagawin ko ba ito? Ewan. Sa anong kadahilanan? Ewan. Kailangan ba talaga? Ewan.

Basta gusto ko lang. Papalag ka? >:)

Klik dito. Klik dun. Sa isang bigla, naging COFFEE TABLE ang blogsite ko.

Bakit Coffee Table?

Uhm. Sa totoo lang wala nmn akong coffee table. Kung saan saan ko lang pinapatong ang kape ko. Basta solid surface na hindi sya matatapon, kahit sa loob ng kubeta pa yan, keri lang. May mga pagkakataon na gusto kong bumili lalo na pag napapadaan ako sa appliance center pero naisip ko din na may mas marami pang importanteng bagay ang dapat ko paglaanan ng pera at hindi kasama dun ang coffee table.

Kaya ito, bunga ng obsession para sa isang coffee table, ang tema ng aking blog.

A refreshing way to start back to square one is to share my cup. :)

Loveletter :) because it's a letter full of love. :)

Dear Tatay at Nanay,

Parang kailan lang kami ay mga uhugin pa. Mga musmos na ang tanging langit ay ang maglaro ng tumbang preso sa gabi, gumawa ng papel na manika, maghalu-haluan na ang yelo ay dinurog na piraso ng semento, gumawa ng langis sa mga pinigang dahon ng gumamela, magpalipad ng saranggola sa likod ng bahay, tumambling sa uhutan, mag-dive sa irrigation pagkatapos ng eskwela, umakyat sa puno ng may puno.. at marami pang iba. Mga bagay na inuulit ulit kong alalahanin habang ako’y malayo sa inyo. Mga bagay na nananatiling langit sa nahihinog ko nang utak.

Sinong makakapagsabi na noon kami ay gulping hahamit sa laugan? Na hindi mapatali ang mga paa namin pag nasa labas na lahat ang aming mga kalaro at kami na lang ang kulang para sa dampa-dampaan. “Maglinis ng bahay. Maghugas ng pinggan. Magwalis ng bunsuran.Punuin ng tubig ang banga. Pag natapos saka lamang maglalaro “ Duet pa mandin kayong dalawa sa litanyang yan araw araw. Swerte na pag natapos ng alas dyes. Pag inabot ng siesta, paktay na, isang pilit na tulugan naman. Sige ka, pag hindi natulog magiging utdo daw at hindi na malaki. Ay hanep! Sana ay uso na ang cherifer nun para hindi na kailangan matulog sa tanghali. Anung hapdi ng mga mata namin sa pagpikit na kunwari ay tulog para payagan na magtumbang preso pag papalubog na ang araw. Pag nakalusot naman at nadala sa pakiusap na maglaro kahit walang siesta, mamaya ay siguradong abot abot na ang sipol ni Tatay kasabay din nun ang naghahabulan naming mga paa pauwi sa bahay.

Lumaki kaming hubad ang pagkatao sa mga kritikong marahil ay naghihintay na kami ay magkamali o maligaw ng landas. Mga tao na handa kaming pukulin ng bato sa isang baluktot na gawi.Same people, same crowd, same critics.. mula noon hanggang ngayon.

The hardest, being your children, is to maintain the standards the society had set with us being the example. Sabi nga, one wrong move and you’re dead. Mahirap, in the sense na , kahit na pagkakamali na namin, these critics has a way to bounce back the negative comments sa inyo. That part was unbearably painful sa akin.. sa amin.. kasi alam namin na nasasaktan kayo. Our shortcomings are not yours. When we sin, that doesn’t make you a sinner. We’re no angels. We make mistakes once in while pero hindi po big sabihin nun ay hindi kayo naging mabuting magulang.

May nasulat akong essay nung 2nd year highschool ako.Ang pamagat ay “ What I Will Be 10 Years From Now”. Hirap na hirap ako maglatag ng mga ideya kong karera nuon.Una, malay ko bang mahirap pala kitain ang pera? Hinihingin ko lang nmn iyon sa inyo. Ikalawa, matagal pa yung 10 years, bakit po-problemahin ko agad yun? I’ll cross the bridge when I get there, sabi ng utak ko. I came up with a crappy essay with a sensible ending. Haha! Here to show off the last part :D

“ What I Will be 10 Years From Now”

I’m not really sure.Teacher. Nurse. Doctor. Writer. Musician. I can’t be just a bit of everything I want.I might change my mind every now and then and just be a simple house wife?But whatever and wherever life takes me 10 years from now, successful in my own field or not, I’m certain I’ll remain to be the loving daughter to my parents and loving sister to my siblings. Years won’t change a thing."

Mahirap i-criteria ang pagiging mabuting magulang dahil sabi nga nila, lahat ng magulang hangad ay mabuti lamang para sa kanilang anak. Things kinda get messy on this process, some kids aren’t that “accepting” while some parents keep on “insisting”. You know how it went after.

Isang bagay lang siguro. Pag malalaki na ang mga anak at nagkaron na ng sari-sariling buhay yet still at the end of the day, in the depths of their hearts, they wanna go home.

I do... with much anticipation.

With much longing,

Ur-super-daughter-wannabe ♥

"Gusto ko lang naman ng Mcdo fries eh." :)

Girl: "girlfriend mo na ba ako?"

Boy: "ayoko nga..di pa ako ready eh."

Girl: "ha?"

Boy: "demanding ang mga girlfriend.. gusto gan'to, gusto ganyan..ewan!"

Girl: "gusto ko lang naman ng Mcdo fries eh.. "

Boy: " talaga?! "

♥♥♥

I love how Mcdo ads got me happy cells population boost! Remember Gina and Lolo? little Frankie singing and her mega mom? and now the two kiddos...

I love how the ad showcase both the innocent and witty side of kids these days. I love how the lines were delivered, that certain struggle for words, the almost mumbling tone of the boy, both their acting were very raw yet very real. I love how it brought me down on memory lane.. those carefree days and me, a kid who just wants fries.

Mcdo's " LOVE KO 'TO " really has the kick.

and oh, for the single ladies out there, if you want a boyfriend, go crave for fries. Nothing else. >:)

Who Was I?- Juris Fernandez

Isa kang halimaw Juris. :))

Chorus:

Who was I? When I keep your tears from falling?

Who was I? When I come to ease your pain and sit by your side?

Who was I? To believe that I was your bestfriend

Was I just another memory to forget?

"I'm in the arms of Jesus and he sings me lullabies."

"An Angel in the book of life wrote down your baby's birth. And whispered as she closed the book "too beautiful for earth."

To G'lhie: I may never really decipher the depths of the grief being on your shoes, ( anything close to grief is an understatement now ) but know that nothing will change between members of the family. Remember those dress up and paper dolls days? If someone got beat up, WE GOT YOUR BACK.

"Daddy please don't look so sad,momma please don't cry.

Cause I'm in the arms of Jesus, and he sings me lullabies.

please try not to question God, don't think he is unkind.

Don't think he sent me to you and then changed his mind.

You see I'm a special child, I am needed up above.

I'm the special gift you gave Him, a product of your love.

I'll always be there with you, so watch the sky at night.

Look for the brightest star and know that's my halo's brilliant light.

You'll see me in the morning frost that mists your window pane.

That's me in the summer showers, I'll be dancing in the rain.

When you feel a gentle breeze from a gentle wind that blows.

Know that it's me planting a kiss upon your nose.

When you see a child playing and your heart feels a tug,

Don't be sad mommy, that's just me giving your heart a hug.

So daddy don't look so sad and mommy please don't cry.

I'm in the arms of Jesus and he sings me lullabies!"

Mark 10:14~ "And Jesus said, Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these"

I hate. >:)

“You know that when I hate you, it is because I love you to a point of passion that unhinges my soul."

Someone is fighting a hard battle. Be kind :)

“Have you ever been in love?

Horrible isn't it?

It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain.

I hate love."

It is best to hold hands and stick together.
