So I’m not the most patriotic person on the planet but I do love my country and people and culture.
It breaks my heart seeing my country get destroyed by Bagyong Ondoy on the news.
It breaks my heart every time I see an elderly helpless, cold and frightened amidst the flood. (And old people have a very special place in my heart!)
It breaks my heart seeing families torn apart, homes destroyed.
Survivors, not being able to rejoice because they are dead inside; they survived, their families did not. They have no more home to go to, no more belongings.
And here I am, safely housed in our apartment in Dubai, far from the chaos.
I just want to fly there and hug every single one of the victims and give them blankets to cuddle in and food to eat.
*sigh*
I hope this ends soon.
“What makes a moment so special is when you block out the past and don’t think about the future, it’s when you live for NOW. You live for what’s happening. You enjoy everything that’s going on. You treasure every second of it. Nothing keeps your mind so occupied as the thought of, ‘I want to remember this as one of the best moments in my life and to look back at it as a memory I’ll always treasure.”
- Donna Mendoza
Written by a very good friend of mine.
This is extremely true. Sometimes there are instances when I can’t enjoy a particular special moment because of certain experiences from the past. Or because I’m too worried of the consequence it would bring in the future. They would always be there, sitting at the back of my mind, preventing me from completely BEING in that moment. Just to enjoy.
But there are times as well when I just let go of everything. Forget the past, forget the future and just be in the NOW.
I forget mistakes of the past and possible consequences in the future and just…
… live.
It is during these moments when I really feel like I’m alive. Like I’m living to the fullest.
And man, is it a great a feeling. :)
When you wake up and realize it’s too early for you to wake up, so you force yourself back to sleep but you can’t fall back asleep because you’re to focused on going back to sleep, saying “GO TO BACK SLEEP GO TO BACK SLEEP GO TO BACK SLEEP” in your head and you end up wasting 2 hours lying down trying to go back to sleep and before you know it, it’s time to wake up again?
No?
It’s just me then.
How odd.
We learn something new everyday.
