..live anyway..

 One of my simple joys when I'm on bed is to  have my legs elevated on the pillow. The bedroom light was already turned off and my lazy eyes are ready to doze off. Yet, I can't allow to let this day pass by ignoring the wonders of being alive. Though I'll be honest that the past days were dragging days for me, a toil I will not share anymore cause being sad is as infectious as being optimistic. The temperature in the East, I wished, can fry even the little emotional ordeal I'm trying to shrug off. I just have to deal with it gracefully, peacefully, and gorgeously (as needed). 

I went to the bathroom to do my pre-slumber ritual. I turned off the lights simply because I just wanted it off. I cringed for the dark, blamed my unconventional thinking but stayed on the throne anyway. The slimy window, I noticed, emit the flimsiest rays of lights which in turn lightened the comfort room. Looking at the mirror in silhouette moments, I've proven that God's creation is never a mistake=)


You may feel like you are in the dark room right now. You will frown for a moment, be sad for days, cry a little, shed tears; you closed the door for a choice and stayed in the throne of loneliness. It may look like it's impossible for the light to creep through. The hand of hope will surely reach for you, it may not be immediate but it will surely touch you. So live anyway!

There might be dreams that you might think had reached the dead end. People around you seemed to quit believing that one day, you'll get to your destination. The road feels like full of rocks and bumps someone during the night scattered them when you were busy dreaming for your dreams. Keep steadfast, for rocks can be sweep aside and bumps can be overcome with tires of strength and perseverance. So live anyway!

Your job may not be producing your desired fruits. It drains your joy and not making your bank account fat. It seems like enthusiasm was left on the punch out machine and you declare it's out of service. Keep paddling though, for waves will pacify with the rising of  the sun. Pray for your hands that they may be a source of inspiration, for your feet that others may also dream to propel forward. Pray that others may realize that even a hopeless tree can still bear fruit when touch by the greatest Man ever alive. So live anyway!

Your heart may be ruthlessly broken over and over again. Love seemed to be a scarce commodity you think that heaven must have hoard all the cupids. Take heart, and defy the scarcity. For one day. the sleepless nights and tears will say thank you it was all worth it. You still got a heart, and it is very capable to love. So live anyway!

You may be in profound sorrow, impossible situations, and unrelenting ordeals you don't want to give it a try. Stop. Stop listening to the voice that wears you down and tears you apart. The clouds will be driven aside, the sun will majestically take the front and it will blast a glorious rays you know it's worth giving life another try. So live anyway!

I may not be in good emotional physique but I will not surely sit in the throne of loneliness for prolong duration. As what I can reiterate, I'm still a concoction of pessimism and optimism. And I chose to be happy despite of dot dot dot. I'm still so alive. And so I'll live anyway!=)

My battery is running out. It's time to bid goodnight.
Wishing you a blessed weekend! 
God bless everyone!=)
