endings and beginnings

i watched army wives s04ep13 online, replayed it two times already and yet i couldn't help but cry again on those touching scenes. the episode is about saying goodbyes. yes, i know, i've been home for more than a month, 1 month and 3 days. i am really glad i am home but watching this episode made me think about the times when i was writing thank you and goodbye notes, and saying goodbye to the friends i made in the US. i was even asking myself where's the good in goodbye? well, i am saying it yet again, a wise woman told me it's all good. every moment in this lifetime is precious. every step of the journey IS the journey. she was right all along. and this woman is one of the many whom i miss.

it's always hard to say goodbye. it's part of attachment. Angeles Arienne cited Harrison Owen’s The Immutable Laws of Spirit which are ‘whoever is present are the right people to be there; whenever we start it’s always the right time; what happens is the only thing that could happen; and when it’s over, it’s over.’ i didn't want to think of the fourth law because i didn't want it to be over, but i had to let go. in the immortal words of semisonic every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.

(god, i can't remember his name. i remember he works at the ateneo de manila university). we exchanged cellphone numbers in the chatroom and there started our friendship. i lost communication with the one whose name i can't remember but nath and i never lost communication, either through text messages or friendster messages. there is ...

february 15. childhood imagination - this is a factory of ajinomoto at the nlex. dwarfs go into this giant ajinomoto at midnight, when there are no people around, to get the ajinomoto that we buy from stores. LOL! this is actually the new shape already. my childhood imagination was with the old shape.

happy new year

happy new year!!! i’ve been meaning to post since before the new year. however, there was so much traffic in accessing the internet maybe because of the many people who update their profiles and/or send their holiday greetings. plus, i had to delete many spam comments in my friendster blog site. i don’t really understand why they are there and they just keep on piling everyday. anyway, because it’s a new year, i will have a new year’s resolution. this is the 2nd year of posting my new year’s resolution. just read on my previous posts because i have mentioned this quite a few times and i even evaluated myself if i was true to the promise, hehehe. and i plan to continue doing it even if 2008 has passed. so for this year, i resolve to save. i have been working for almost 9 years now and i haven’t saved any penny. i have a bank account and all but there’s really nothing in it. i resolve to start doing this this year because i just thought that i am not getting any younger and i am n...
