Acceptance

It’s sad to let go of someone who you thought was “the one” for you.

I did that today. I cried. I prayed. I accepted.

It takes faith to look beyond the hurt. Yet I trust my God and my faith tells me that it was all meant to be.

My heart knows that now and I am at peace with it.

After a while you learn
the subtle difference between
holding a hand and chaining a soul
and you learn
that love doesn’t mean leaning
and company doesn’t always mean security.
And you begin to learn
that kisses aren’t contracts
and presents aren’t promises
and you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and your eyes ahead
with the grace of woman, not the grief of a child
and you learn
to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow’s ground is
too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling down
in mid-flight.
After a while you learn
that even sunshine burns
if you get too much
so you plant your own garden
and decorate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone
to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure
you really are strong
you really do have worth
and you learn
and you learn
with every goodbye, you learn…

Why I Write?

I write to express myself, to connect and to learn...

I grew up surrounded with journals and I can still remember how I used to hide my “dear diary” from my mom. (hihi).

The thought makes me smile.

I am introspective by nature and I am self revealing too. I’ve always been comfortable sharing my thoughts.

So as I express myself here, I technically share my life journey to anyone who come across my blog.

The blogname was driven from the lyrics of “Seasons of Love” from RENT-the famous rock broadway musical.

Though the musical revolves around the issue of HIV—the song never fails to remind me to simply “Live”.

That life is fleeting and that every moment should count.

That I should fill my life with love and memories.. learning curves and beautiful moments.

Truly living life...
