Scars For Me & Souvenirs For You

Sunday, January 4, 2009

Life is beautiful. The world ain't half as bad as they paint it to be, really. I am truly content with what i have these days. And i should be grateful for it. I do not intend to take any of this for granted. Cause these opportunities in life don't come by often. Of course, there are the daily squabbles in life but those can be fixed if you don't run away from them or ignore it totally. Besides that everything is right where it's supposed to be. December (2008) was one fruitful month. I cherished every moment of it and that made me look forward to 2009. And we're not even one week into Jan and I am loving it already.

However there is one part of me which isn't looking forward to the next two weeks ahead of me. Maybe i am not prepared to confront my emotions cause i have been really strong about everything and moving along so gracefully. But i hope this is who i am and that it's not just a facade i have been hiding behind. There isn't just one pillar but many pillars of strength that i can fall back on. I refuse though. I need to stay grounded cause it is something life's lessons have taught me so far. I am just glad i have the people that matter most in my life standing by me, prepared to catch me if i fall despite my refusal to let them. This i am truly grateful for. Sometimes i feel like i do not thank God enough for all these souls he has blessed me with.

You I personally want to thank. For wanting to whisk me away over the weekend so i can have a peace of mind. But i think it'll be a complete waste of moolah my dear. I am not gonna run away! I have to confront whatever it is i need to accost. I'm a big girl, remember? :)) However I promise you, Feb we will go on that holiday we both deserve. In the mean time you can always buy me more books?? Haha, it will keep me and my mind occupied. For sure! Then again i have four books earnestly waiting to be read sitting on my shelf. This reminds me..I do intend to have my very own library in my new home! and a huge one at that. Comprenda?

As for my two bestfriends, Raine and Steffie - the three of us have become such busy bees, with our own commitments at hand. Steffie being the gorgeous mommy that she is with her oh so cute 2 year old bundle of joy she's blessed us all with, juggling work amidst all that! Raine with school every other day and of course i have school too! And now with tuitions and what not since the new school term is here. We may not call each other up on a daily basis, let alone meet up like how we used to back in the day. But somehow we make it a point to drop each other text messages or try and squeeze a dinner date or two just to catch up and know we're all doing fine! and that's somehow become mandatory in our so called busy schedules, with schoool, work and boys. And i dare say, this will go on for a long time to come. What more when Raine and I actually go out into the working world. Or when i intend to leave for Aussie in time to come. I am just glad that this 9 year long friendship hasn't gone down the drain and it's been worth the fights, the tears, the emotions, shared joys and laughter we all have been through. On to our 10th year as bestfriends, I am glad i ushered in the New Year and that too, to a better 2009 with you guys by my side. There was nothing more i could ask for. I love you two dearly - never forget that.

ps: its your 21st this year steffie. where is it gon be at? VEGAS?! ;))
