Today another year comes to an end and honestly, I have a lot to be thankful for.
The beginning of this year didn't come easily; I lost loved ones and almost lost myself. But with the help of Prayers, friends and strong family support I was able to make it through.... with flying colors, glitters and butterflies of course...
To my dearest friends who never fail to keep me from breaking the rules completely and go cray cray (despite The #panicroom events in life) thank you for every effort you make to keep my sanity intact.... the advice's, words from the heart and long long conversations even from a distance! (time difference didn't matter) Every effort is appreciated from the heart, I love you guys! My friends have become my family through the years and I treasure each and every one of you. I may not have grown up with the same culture but you've accepted me as crazy as I am (even if my tagalog is madalas mali spelling lol). We can't deny it we are getting older and I’m ever so thankful that we are still in each other’s lives. Looking forward to more crazy moments and life changing milestones with ya’ll.
I've made a lot of new friends this year and for that I am most grateful. There were moments when I didn't know what relevance each person had but now I see how much of myself was transformed for the better because of them. One friend in particular calls me Ms. Congeniality (u know who u are), I just love meeting new people because I find comfort in their company. I feel that our differences in life have a way of teaching us of what is significant. In short kung ano meron ka wala ako and ano meron ako wala ka so we need each other, diba?! It doesn't matter where you’re from as long as you understand and accept who a person is then you’re in for a lifelong triumph. The gift of friendship is truly irreplaceable.
Friends= more people to laugh with me, cry with me, guide me, inspire me, learn from and more people to share the best of life with. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. And so if I made you laugh even just a little bit then it was my pleasure because within that moment I got to touch your life and I got to share a part of me with you. So Thank You!
Yes, it was a sensational (yes exaggerated) year for me simply because I got to learn, discover and explore within myself the things I don’t usually do or am not used to doing because I've always kept myself in the "zone". As my daddy would say "always act properly". I enjoyed it while it lasted. Good girl gone bad (for a while). 2013 was a memorable year but December was my most memorable month of all, every single highlight of my life was in it. It was filled with so many memories that I cannot even describe in one word. I cried, I loved, I laughed (a lot actually), I realized things, I went a little overboard, I took a chance, I made a difference and most of all I learned to forgive. It was a whirlwind of emotions I never knew I was capable of handling on my own. My heart grew fonder and stronger with every heartbeat. Maybe I needed the chaos just so I could mold myself around it and one day come to realize what it all meant. I didn't understand the “why’s” when it was all happening but I’m thankful of how everything approached clarity at the right moment.
To those I've hurt, had misunderstandings with, had bad bad bad days with in the past patawad, minsan wala ako sa tamang pag iisip at kulang pa sa kaalaman sa buhay para umintindi sa lahat nang nagaganap. minsan hindi ko alam agad ang sagot, minsan i refuse to understand, minsan confused lang, at minsan nag papanic lang, sorry naman. It was not purposely done na may masaktan ako because I myself don't like the feeling of getting hurt. It sucks! I am still hopeful that one day maaayos ang lahat, mapapatawad mo ako and we can truly say "thank you for everything", in god's time.
This time around I bring with me every lesson learned, every experience experienced, every emotion felt and every single detail of advice I received to welcome 2014 with all optimism. I close my eyes, wish upon a star and pray that everything will fall into place. I believe the right people are the ones who come into your life unexpectedly and change you forever.
This is life and it is happening now, no Regrets just Love.
So to the future..... Hi, let's do this!
