on life and living
when one of the twin souls pass on earlier than the other and the promise was not fulfilled, i learned that the one who passed on can not cross over until the other has found the happiness that was due to what would have been theirs.
he will not be allowed to be in the proximity of the one left behind close enough to be felt until the one left behind would realize that there are things that happen just so it happens.
i am talking mumbo jumbo, maybe. but i want to believe that the Almighty is indeed forgiving and generous.
getting to our destination is being like on a train station. having our twin soul passing on earlier than scheduled is like having that train leave earlier. we missed it, we get upset. if we get too caught up on having been left, we won’t notice that there had been trains that passed us by. when we realize this, we are then faced with the decision whether to get on the one waiting or not. if we really want to get to where we are planning to go, we have to get on.
with all the emotional rollercoaster ride i have been having in the past week, it is only today that i learned love does transcend time and space.
Courage, Cowardly

Just today, this ticked me off:
“Sure, the person has strength··· strength in odor”
Dude, you may have meant it to be funny, but I see the loser in you instead.
La Chilly-Chilexperiencia

The view from my window at Time Suites Apartments
It has been a few weeks since I arrived from the City of Santiago de Chile. While I was there, it was cold beyond the cold I have experienced in my lifetime, even colder than the Fall of Cali or Winter of Houston. The moment I set foot in my temporary home for a few weeks, I was flown back in time when I was growing up in my little hometown called Iloilo. I felt at ease as though even the heavens were welcoming me.
Hello, Santiago!
It has been some weeks since I first came to this city… this is actually the second time around and the travel is a little bit more eventful compared to the first one when I was only with two more from our team.
