Weddings and Anniversaries Too

Weddings make me cry and anniversaries makes me cry harder.
Today is the 30th wedding anniversary of my parents which reminds me in 5 months time I will be turning 30. When I was younger, with the less mathematical side of my brain, I counted backwards to check how many months pregnant my mother was when she got married. She was 4 months pregnant when she married my Tatay. I would not write about the story behind that though, after all it doesn't matter much.
March 31 is a reminder that I was already 4 months in my Nanay's womb when she got married. But most importantly it reminded me of their love for each other. I have always felt blessed that after all these years they are still together - getting stronger. I would want to see myself with Hubby still 30 years from now.
Thank you Nanay and Tatay for showing me what unconditional love is all about. I may have learned a lot from school (thanks to them also for sending me to the best schools) but I want you to know that you were my teachers. You showed me what love really is.

Something Nice

Here's something nice that I would like to share, got this from a friend's email.

How To Be Wild at Heart

1. Know who you are by forgiving who you're not. - this is quite difficult for me as of the moment, but I am trying

2. Accept and move on but never give up. - always believed in this

3. Treasure your dreams. - let me add, and make it happen

4. Never be dissatisfied with what you have. - I did something healthy few days ago, I made categories of the things that I own (i.e. bags, shoes, etc.) and listed down each item that I have in every category and I found out I have more than enough and I realized I should be thankful. I feel blessed.

5. Heed warnings from those you respect. - specially your parents'

6. Get out, clear your heart, let go. - I should try to do this more often.

7. Know the difference between anger and wild. - =P

8. Figure out who you are apart from everyone.

9. Contribute to others well being.

It's weekend once again and I'm happy to spend time with my family. It's just me - always a sucker for bonding time.

Just A Few Lines

Hubby, being my number fan and blog follower, has been asking me why I haven’t posted anything. I guess I can be charged guilty for being lazy in doing my blog chores for the past months.

I will try to be more diligent this time. I can’t start to be diligent today though hehehe.

Here’s something for my Hubby. ILY!


"Everything"
By: Alanis Morissette


I can be an asshole of the grandest kind
I can withhold like it's going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby and you've never met anyone
Who is as negative as I am sometimes


I am the wisest woman you've ever met.
I am the kindest soul with whom you've connected.
I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen
And you've never met anyone
Who's as positive as I am sometimes.



You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can't relate
And you're still here



I blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My passive-aggressiveness can be devastating
I'm terrified and mistrusting
And you've never met anyone as,
As closed down as I am sometimes.


I resist, persists, and speaks louder than I know
What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I go


I'm the funniest woman that you've ever known
I'm the dullest woman that you've ever known
I'm the most gorgeous woman that you've ever known
And you've never met anyone
Who is as everything as I am sometimes
