On Being Human

( I forgot to blog this one. Good thing I rummaged through my notes. I wrote this when I was still in Manila few months ago. Another dramatic moments.) What's new!

It’s hard to admit that sometime in our lives we are losing hope. When we are struck by immeasurable pain of tragedy, we cry and kneel in defeat. It’s hard to deny from people that behind our smiles and laughter, there hides a lonely and miserable soul. We cannot deceive others from the pain that we are feeling inside. Why?

Because each one of us shed a tear for the same reason. It may happen in different ways but still it’s the same pain and suffering that everyone has faced. Maybe this is one thing that makes us human – enduring the same misery.

There are times when I thought that I was so unlucky to experience the worst things in my life. I never realized that there are people out there who are suffering more than I am. Well when you are in so much pain, you will no longer notice what’s happening around you.

How could it be that a soul with good intentions is the one to suffer the most?

There are truths and even lies in this world that remain to be a mystery. Even if we try to figure it out the answers wouldn’t jus come out.

I am afraid of becoming selfish because I wouldn’t want other people to cry and be hurt out of selfishness. But at times I thought of becoming selfish. I wouldn’t deny that sometime in my life I wanted to be selfish. But I can’t.

I don’t want to see myself in victory out of stealing happiness from others.

Maybe this is what makes me human.

Searching for my own happiness and the happiness of others.

My Same

I'm crazy over ADELE these past few days so I downloaded her songs and I found " MY SAME" which reminds me of someone. Someone stubborn but sane, someone stranger but unforgettable.

You said I'm stubborn and I never give in
I think you're stubborn 'cept you're always softening
You say I'm selfish, I agree with you on that
I think you're giving out in way too much in fact
I say we've only known each other a year
You say I've known you longer my dear
You like to be so close, I like to be alone
I like to sit on chairs and you prefer the floor
Walking with each other, think we'll never match at all, but we do
But we do, but we do, but we do

I thought I knew myself, somehow you know me more
I've never known this, never before
You're the first to make up whenever we argue
I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know you
You're so provocative, I'm so conservative
You're so adventurous, I'm so very cautious, combining
You think we would and we do, but we do, but we do, but we do


Favouritism ain't my thing but,
In this situation I'll be glad...

Favouritism ain't my thing but,in this situation I'll be glad to make an exception

You said I'm stubborn and I never give in
I think you're stubborn 'cept you're always softening
You say I'm selfish, I agree with you on that
I think you're giving out in way too much in fact
I say we've only known each other one year
You say I've known you longer my dear
You like to be so close, I like to be alone
I like to sit on chairs and you prefer the floor
Walking with each other, think we'll never match at all, but we do

Color me Lonely

People come, people go,

It doesn't really matter cause

I still don't know if they can change

the colors of a heart

Time will tell, I may see

That someone who will matter will

Just turn around and change my world

With skies of gray to blue

Color me lonely

That may be true

Color me lonely

If it's all the same to you

But someone will come

Paint all the hues

Coloring me something else

Please do

Aren't you lonely too? those times when there's nobody who

Will set u free and make u feel u really want to live

Color me lonely

That maybe true

Color me lonely

If it's all the same to you

But someone will come

Paint all the hues

Coloring me something else,

Please do

I still don't know if they can change

the colors of a heart

Time will tell, I may see

That someone who will matter will

Just turn around and change my world

With skies of gray to blue

Color me lonely

That may be true

Color me lonely

If it's all the same to you

But someone will come

Paint all the hues

Coloring me something else

Please do
