Random Thoughts #1

What else do you see in the picture other than the obvious fact that it is a hibiscus flower? What image does the picture brings to you?

Me, I see friendships that have blossomed and later withered away with time and distance.

I see family ties being permanently severed no thanks to ingratitude and insistence of letting go of everything. [Papa Carrie, mark my words. You know your girl; when she said it, she really meant it because she could no longer be a gummy bear, allowing relatives to squeeze her - left and right, top and bottom.]

She's tired of fielding off questions that should be instead redirected to Mama Carrie; reticence is her current wish as she feels that one should only ask her if they are concerned and not merely being busybodies to gossip about it behind her back about how she's being such a useless kid for not planning in advance.

She is who she is, alright? She answers for her behavior/character to no one but to her parents; she regards them as the only people whom she could trust as she knows that the Carries will support her and have her back - no matter what.

Mama Carrie believes in one thing: God has their girl's plans all worked out, but she has to learn from her own mistakes and regrets to move on, stay true to the right path and unearth what His plans for her are.

Standing there, nostalgia about the past lingering in the air

It definitely has to be one of the best places that I've ever been to but I had a problem with the weather. Being so close to the water, it should be cooling to the soul and not the opposite.

Spending only a night there is never enough, but each night spent there will burn a hole in the wallet even deeper.





It's terrible to remember everything that had happened on that day whenever this song is played. The conversation with Mama Carrie on the drive home. The conversation with Bya on Skype about love and its aftermath.

4/22/2012

I don't know if it was fit to call it a shopping mall because there was no resemblance to it and it wasn't a community center either.

I saw a family of four with the children obediently walking in front of the parents, who were holding hands and deeply in love when we passed them by on ground floor parking level. Although we were early, all the parking bays had been taken up but I had my companion drive straight to a particular row where all the bays had been reserved for the important guests and the organizer had so kindly reserved one for us. Not only that; he even reserved the best seats for us.

There was a makeshift stage at the very front of the sound-proof room and leather chairs with armrests were arranged in such a way that it was neither cluttered nor squashed. I had to play the part of an usherette, guiding people to any vacant seats and bringing out additional plastic chairs for those latecomers while my companion remained seated, killing the time on his smartphone.
