Tonight's insight about L O V E
When it comes to love/ choosing a lifetime partner, it is so important that you are either exactly on the same level/ the other one could support and grow with you.
For love means growing together.
Nobody goes ahead of the other without doing one’s best to push the partner forward with you and nobody gets left behind, being merely a spectator.
Love is an active reinforcement of growth...
Life's 'Oh well'
I’m praying that this detest i feel towards my step—- (please ask her for details as i won’t even begin elaborating the fugliness of her influence and actions) won’t turn me into a cold indifferent stone. Because i’ve had too much pain ******** and i need to believe in myself even more, that the good things i put out in the world…will come back as good results....

My Mommy
I feel like i am evolving into my own womanity…
I had another lengthy, happy and very healthy conversation with my mom on the phone. What’s great about growing up with her and even until i moved away from home at 17 (to study…) was that our communication lines never really got blurred. It was always open and i’ve always been so blessed to have been allowed to express...

Experience takes precedence to writing. One can’t possibly write with lavish heartbeat sans the richness of experience. While there is so much that the imagination can hold, there is no substitute to reality and the memory being immortalized, fiddled and captured, even more beautifully… in words.
It couldn’t have been said much better:
“We write to taste life twice, in...
Livin La Vida LOCA
Sometimes i feel really thankful for what i have on my plate. Full. Meaningful. Fulfilling. :)
But at times it gets really insaaaaaaane, i can’t help feel dizzy, sleepless, and sometimes can’t really help ask myself so many times why i dragged myself this way. Even worse: the metaphysical unease starts to settle, and i wrestle with the questions. Can i really do what i do now,...

Aahh!!!
“An independent, condo life in the city is lonely” is the biggest understatement of the century.
I cannot wait…
All i know is, i can’t be living life like this forever. 5 years is long… (i wouldn’t know for sure, but that’s how i see it). Change is far in sight at this point, but i can feel it!
Whenever i pass by EDSA and battle with traffic every...

Always a balancing act.
Spirituality & Material-ity
The real world where we live in, vs.
The ideal place we imagine.
Black & white, Yin & Yang
always a balancing act…
of the Soul and the Body
Transcendence is possible
Breathe in, Breathe out
Peace, Serenity of Mind, Heart & Soul
is possible.
Lightness of body is achieved
When we are aligned in Purpose.

Possibility
That Possibility
of Things unfolding
the way you’ve always…wondered.
And not to mentioned, wanted.
WHAT IF.
What if, LIFE, gives a chance
Beyond what you thought was
possible.
All you did was Believe
in your heart & in your mind,
it could happen.
The Possibility is
thrilling me, killing me…
in anticipation!
I don’t want to ever lose something

It is our failure to become our perceived ideal that ultimately defines us and...

Care to?
This is really how it is like everyday… Me and the 4-walls of this room i am happy to be sheltered in, but where i sometimes also catch myself wishing for someone to talk to.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m used to it. But i’ve never felt comfy/at home with it and i still find myself longing for a friend.
My dearest friend Desi just might give me a puppy. I just might adopt one!...

Examined thoughts, Some alignment
There may have been times when i was afraid to write my thoughts for fear of being misjudged, misread, misunderstood. Although introspection comes to me very naturally (as i am more of an introvert, really), i have come to choose not just my words, but even my thoughts quite as often as i am self-aware.
For heavy thinkers, sometimes you need to try to filter your thoughts, without necessarily...

Now Showing: the ugly truth
Moments like these (the ugly truth, confessions, spilling the beans) make me really feeeel uneasy.
I’m a close book most of the time.
I don’t like confessions.
I hate having to think that some ugly portions of my life really do have to be owned by me like my life for 2 months with my EVIL stepmother…and how she came into all our lives once upon a time, to change the course of...
Don't be nice. Be sincere.
i hate it when…
you have something very important to say, whether great or just awful, then you play with words, to let me guess the words that would come out of your mouth
you go around the bush
just say it…
straight to the point, please
i can’t emphasize it any clearer how much i APPRECIATE truthfulness, transparency, and genuineness
don’t be nice. be sincere.

Ala's Dos: soledad →
alas-dos:
The thing I value most right now is my solitude. Having complete possession of my own thoughts, mind, and feelings. Lingering for as long as I like in that interior room where my person is at complete liberty to play, to think, to feel, to be.
Solitude used to be loneliness, when I felt that…

Dear 17-year-old me...
In a few months time, you’ll be ready to kick off those shoes and pack up your bags. Enjoy your best summer ever at home.
You have made a big decision and whatever brought you to this moment, believe that it was meant to be. I’m proud of you because after making all those plans and not seeing them through, given your parents’ preference and given you really wanna please them,...
