The Martian has landed!

Hi again everybody. The Martian has landed!
It's been a long time since I posted a blog here in Blogspot.

Due to the uncertainty I forgot to stay tuned with my blog. Now, due to boredom I decided to once revive this blog of mine and post topics that are interesting. I know there are only few visitors in this blog but still I will continue to post topics which are interesting ones. I hope that there will be new persons to visit this blog…

Thank you!

I guess that's all for now, I promise I'll blog more frequently from now on! Ciao for now!

EMERSON-MANILA








Before arriving at Emerson, I knew absolutely no one with the exception of my (best) friends in Davao. I guess I was lucky that I actually knew at least four of them: my newly found friends. I finally can understand and be able to relate my job and enjoy the company of these fellas namely: Mercy, Jason, Joeff, Mitch (my team) and the rest of Motors and Appliances Components (MAC).

However I was still very nervous about the new environment I was going to be exposed to. It is great that I have met a wide variety of people already, all whom I consider to be my close friends. Although we all come from different backgrounds and locations, we get along together great and we have become so incredibly close.

Cheers to the MAC-ICG Group! And to the whole MAC Dept.

sun up til sun down

Why do we end up getting hurt by the people we love? Why do we have to get hurt in the first place if we (us and the person we choose to love), really love each other? Why do we have to loose that love?

These questions take a life long journey to answer, but bits and pieces of these tend to get answered by the time we have our own little "moment". Let me share you mine...

Early this year, i met this person. We went out for a few months. I came to know part of the person because the person gave me permission to take a peak of what the person really is. The person would share thing from the past, kahit na sa tingin nya eh hindi magiging magandang pakinggan. I valued that honesty and trust, so in turn i also shared who really this person is. Sad to say sa tingin nya, I'm too good to be true, we even made a joke na sya yung devil at ako yung angel. Devil this person maybe, i chose to accept this person, his good side and his not so good side. The person accepted our "little world" and one day, we decided to call whatever's between us "special". Until the something happened.

The person suddenly lost track of "us" and began to detach itself from me. Here i learned the value of patience. If you really love somebody, learn to wait. How hard it may seem, have that discipline to stop and wait for the person. Its like having this journey together when you suddenly realize, your companion choses to walk slowly o just rest for a while. Have the courage to wait for your companion or until the person signals you to go on with him.

It hurts so much when you feel suddenly alone, when in fact you should not be because you know there is somebody special with you. And no matter how you wait, you still end up going through that journey alone. Masakit kung sa masakit, pero anong gagawin mo?

I will not answer the questions I've said above. I'll share with you may realizations instead.

That its not you, its him/her. For somebody who knows how to love, you're always careful not to hurt the person you love. Its like loving somebody the way you would love yourself. You're always careful on the things you do and you say so as not to cause the one you love hurt.

You are capable of loving. When relationship fails its nothing but normal to feel pain which no pain-killer can remedy. Each of us has our own way of recuperating. For some it takes weeks and months of wallowing to that sadness. But to a certain point you need to pick up your shattered pieces and start a new. Here i learned that there's nothing wrong with me. I know how to love. Yes i got hurt in the end but at least i know how to love. Some people do have relationships but actually not relating. (tama ba grammar?) Its ok wallow and be sad but when you've decided to pick up yourself, remember that you should be proud because you showed them that you know how to love, and that you are capable of loving and knowing its true meaning.

So this is say to you reading and to myself as well: Don't be afraid to love again. Yes you got hurt but that's just the now, remember that there is tomorrow. Somebody is there making its way to your life so you have to prepare. Remember the lessons you've learned and use these lessons to your advantage but always allow yourself to commit mistakes for in those mistakes are new lessons to be learned. Never harbor ill feelings to those people who have caused you pain, they just don't know how it is to love. Be brave, the sun raises tomorrow.

Etcetera

It's so easy to say the right things. It's so easy to sound nice and sweet. When you're face-to-face, it's no challenge to bring forth a smile. Yet, it's not easy to be real.

Aren't we all masters of the spoken word? We can recall cliche's with a fillip. We can pick our minds of timely quotes to ease a weathered soul. And with our mastered tones, we soothe a heart in pain.

Yet, not all find it as easy to put those words into action.

How many times have you been assured by a friendly voice to "go on and challenge life," for if everything else fails, I'll be here -- an ear to hear out your frustrations, an arm you can hold on to, a shoulder that you can flood with your tears, etcetera, etcetera....

Yet, how many times has the world frustrated your attempts, whamming you twice, thrice over and you suddenly find yourself alone in the abyss of failure? Ringing in your mind is that sweet, reassuring voice of wisdom. But when you look around, it's just a voice, the owner gone, caught up in its own world.

These quotes and phrases are but words sewn up together to sound nice. It's prodding meant only to impel a beginning. It inspires you to start, encourages you to keep on the road.

lil bit

I feel a lil homesick but I know God has planned for me and lessons to be learned here in Manila (Emerson). I am overly positive of myself that I will make it through. Maybe not in a instant but with hard work. It was hard for me to leave since i've got a lot going on there in Davao. My hometown will always be my home. I'll just think of it this way...No man discovers new horizons without losing sight of the shore. I'll accept challenges and enjoy being out of my comfort zone, because I know in the end, my destination is the journey itself.
