we all take differents paths in life,
but no matter where we go,
we always take a little of each other everywhere....

Mind over matter
disclaimer: uber cheesy,i might as well get a grater and start grating myself.
this was a realization made one moonlit sky. electricity went off for an unknown reason, however a boom was heard from afar, and i have to give water to some of our dogs at the backyard. it was dark so i made use of a candle. after doing what i had to do, i walked my way back through the darkness. the ruddy light coming from the candle illuminated my way but i recognized the silver ray of the moon which seems to emit a more powerful light than the candle. i gazed at the wonder of the moon that i forgot i was holding a candle, the meltings of the candle (the paraffin wax i suppose) started dripping continously at my hands. it was very painful of course but i didn't lose grip of the candle, i withstand the pain. why? because i knew all the consequences of letting go of the candle.
..i gues this was me. i am too concerned with consequences. some people become to passive to love and get hurt at the end. yea, at least they have loved but what's the use if there's nothing good for you in return. on one hand, when one is much aware of the consequences of falling and being in love, one'll just have to hold back everything than live complicatedly. if the head dominates the heart (or if you are too righteous, the hypothalamus) then love would be but fleeting memories. the wiser the person gets the harder it is for him/her to find the person to love.
on the other hand, some are just in love with the idea of being in love. the illusion of being in love, missing someone, thinking of someone when after all they are not really in love with the person they just instill in their minds that they are in love. love should be the sole reason for loving, if not then that is not real love (could be infatuation, admiration, obsession, revenge, personal satisfaction, in short selfishness.) i personally think that we do not really need to be with a significant other to be complete, we're already complete after all. we only take significant others to share our complete beings if we they don't come, then we've got nothing to lose.
i do not agree with the philosophers who said that love starts from the feeling of loneliness, then that would be something selfish right? i think it's an attraction of souls. first external attraction, then the attraction of souls and this would go on for some time..:P hahaha my own phenomenology of love, take that Max Scheler hehe..
anyway, being too critical to being in love just makes me impractical or bitter.hehe. filipinos simply loves within a mileu. heck, i don't even really know what i was talking about the whole time. kudos to you reader for being able to come this far, you were able to stand this gibberish post. hehe..
think happy thoughts!

"it doesn't hurt to be optimistic, you can always cry later" - nope, not my principle..

“Mangarap ka at abutin mo ito. Huwag mo sisihin ang sira mong pamilya,
palpak mong syota, pilay mong tuta o mga lumilipad na ipis. Kung may pagkukulang sa iyo ang
magulang mo, pwede kang manisi at magrebelde. Tumigil ka sa pag-aaral, magdrugs ka, magpakulay
ng buhok sa kili-kili. Sa bandang huli, ikaw din ang biktima. Rebeldeng walang napatunayan at
bait sa sarili. Kaya … enjoy life. Learn how to play the game.” — Bob Ong from Stainless
