A trip down memory lane
28th Jul 2010 by Chris Sa totoo lang, wala kang dapat ipagmayabang dahil wala ka pa sa kalingkingan ng pagiging ina ng nanay ko sa amin!
That’s me, imagining the worst line I wanna deliver to the biggest b*tch of them all.. and I’m daydreaming.
I’ve been too tired, and it felt like I’m punishing myself at work. I needed to attend to some personal matters that really matter. Today, I thought of throwing stuff away. Yeah, I like to throw stuff away. Its a new habit that I have suddenly formed out of the Ondoy experience. The whole tragic experience brought me to an understanding how life can be short and that there are far too many things that should be experienced.
I lost a lot of things that were very important to me that time. I’m quite a sentimental person, but in the end, when Ondoy washed them away, I learned something important. VERY IMPORTANT. Its that life isn’t about the material things that you think matter to you, but the memories that you have for each event, each page of your life.
Some of the most painful things I had to throw away were books. Imagine how loudly I screamed when I saw my whole cart of books swimming inside the house! And it even included my precious yearbook (wherein, I dearly hate the editor for editing my eight-worded self description–as if she ever understood about individuality! Gaaahh, I’m so not talking about it here and now.. hmph!!!). It had a whole collection of best seller books I haven’t even touched in years, yet I kept promising myself I ever will complete reading them all. more…
and some are dreams of expressing desire to be happy and taken cared of
