What can do you do when a friend is heartbroken?

What do you do when a friend is heartbroken?

Perhaps tell her words that you think will ease her heart

Help her get some sweets or buy her ice cream to put her in glee

Comfort her with all your heart and hope it eases her soul

Or maybe just sit there with her as she vents her heart out

Words of wisdom or some love quotations will never ease a broken soul

Nor will a heartbreak soundtrack nor a sweet flick movie

What matters most is just to be there in that moment

So when she’s ready to break down you’ll let her fall and you’ll catch her

Unlike that guy who let her fall but unknowingly went by and took the nearest exit

Just be there for her

Words will never be enough

Just let her cry and all will get better in the end

I know words can never suffice and heal all that’s aching

But dear friend, just know were here

Its true what they say, boyfriends come and pass

But your real friends will always stay by your side and stick with you

I dont know what else to say

But cry it all out, let lose all that hatred and frustration

We will continue to listen

Up till you finally say

“Im better off without him

Im okay now”

Cheers girl! There’s someone out there for you

And we’ll all together continue to pray for that 🙏

Friends through Milestones~

I dont think Im ready to let go of this night just yet



Its moments like this when you realize you did something well in the past.

Its moments like this when you realize the universe never owed you anything but it gave you back an awesome gift.

Its moments like this when you realize you are blessed beyond compared.

Its moments like this when you realize these are friends for keeps and you ought to have them till infinite days of bliss, of ups and downs, in hope and in love.

Perhaps plans usually gets scrapped and cancelled because maybe were just destined to celebrate something beyond our years could ever think or imagine.

We were then young and naive, not knowing where life may lead us, but guess what?

Here we are slowly celebrating each others milestones....

I used to watch this on movies, but never did I realize that experiencing it first hand would be like riding a roller coaster ride.

Its like every snap of a picture is like a flashback of how it was in the yesteryears.

Of someone searching for love, and now of to marry the man of her dreams.

Of someone breaking to us an awesome news about her bundle of joy, making all of us legit titas and tito.

Its been an awesome journey, I cant wait to continue moving forward.

Distance or time maybe a hindrance but I know, this friendship shall last.

Till the last person marries.

Till the last person gets children.

Till the last person retires

Till the last person becomes a senior.

To more memories and more moments together.

Change is inevitable, but everything becomes bearable with friends by your side cheering you on and lending a helping hand.

From lecture halls, to CEU's clinics, to Manila hotel, to Manila hotel again, to our work places, to preceptor-ships, to annual conventions and to many more places and milestones, I'll continue to close my eyes and dream with you guys by my side. Thank you for making the past 10 years amazing <3

Love,
your maknae x

crossroads.

i was always that kid who never wanted to grow up,
not because my childhood was never great
i just wanted to savor every moment of it
being young felt like a passport to do all things without much to think about

looking back and reading prose from recent years
I realized i was growing up and i was struggling
i was struggling to joggle a new life that's set before me
i lost track of my passion and i lost time for myself

i forgot how it was to actually feel passion burning from deep within
i forgot how it was to take in something and live in the moment
i forgot how it was to actually feel like a kid without any responsibilities
i forgot to live, and to actually be in that moment.

maybe i was right,
i never really wanted to grow up.
but would do i do?
i can never take all the years back.

we were never meant to age backwards.
we were always meant to keep moving forward
to stop and enjoy breaks
but continue to strive and go further

its always great to look back and remember old memories
i will never forget the little prince and his friend the fox
nor will i ever forget the elephant and the boa constrictor
time is only relevant, to age is inevitable

we can always come back and enjoy the old days
the feeling it brought and the happiness that once stayed
but its always a great thing to look forward to what lies ahead
to the journey that awaits

growing up will never ever be easy.
i just have to stand tall and believe
that i can conquer tomorrow, one step a time.

because i may always regret not being a kid again,
but i will always be that kid with big dreams.
and right now, right here...
i'm bound to achieve those goals, just wait and see.

growing up

My thoughts have long been filled with unending errands and ideas that run a jolt I have long been contemplating of writing and going back to my core That alone time of just simply being quiet Longing to reminisce and bask in life's wonders Working has put me in a four cornered cage Trapped within four walls, it feels like confinement. My thoughts no longer free to run wild. I miss long walks and just staring at the sky Looking at tall buildings, wondering how long it took to build them Life outside this four cornered stall continued to flourish Whether I got to be there for it or not Trees got taller, kids grew bigger Some places no longer what they used to be And these pages I write on, they're fresh As if waiting to be written on Life continues moving Whether you participate or not Whether this notebook remains empty or filled Gone are the days of frolic and idleness I wish I can fill these pages again Ooze with some inspiration And jot down nonstop Which I once did Its true, things change And so does circumstance I wonder if things ever go back to normal Or maybe this is really just part of growing up? enveloped thoughts. 071818.11:09pm
