Trance

   Slowly I opened my lethargic eyes while in my mind I am expecting same old routine which goaded my will to go back to sleep again. But a mysterious scent abstracted my senses and so I lazily opened my eyes. A bizarre of emotions hurriedly passed through my veins when I saw rose petals all over my bed. I was in deep thoughts and so my optic nerves responded to my vagueness. My eyes rest in front of my door and there I saw the culprit. He was sweetly smiling as he affectionately stares at me while holding a tray. Certainly, I can smell the aroma of my favorite café vienness with a hot honey dip pancakes. Yeah, he brought me a breakfast in bed.

    There are so many questions I want to ask him but I wanted to savor every minute of this moment. How I missed him and I wanted to hug this man whom I ever dreamed of to be with. He placed the tray on the desk beside my bed as I started to talk but he stopped me while he took my hand and gave me a diamond studded ring. Tears started falling when he whispered on my ear how he loves me and he was asking me to marry him. And there is no word in the dictionary how can I describe what I am feeling. I hugged him so tight and then the alarm rings! Geeez! It was just only a dream and will forever be one of my trances.

September Paranoia

In a week time it'll be the end of September and I thought I have already forgotten the past and yet it is still haunting me until now. As a matter of fact, I fear this month coz there is this feeling of paranoia that something so unexpected will happen again. I never liked residing in an emotional trance ever since this remorseful love story happened.


Cliché, yet like everybody else I have also a fair share of a regretful love story.It was this month when I started to believe that forever does not really exist. Happily ever after will always remain as a tale and it is not existent in the real life. I became so inferior and felt so insecure about everything. I grieved for a long time and it was etched in my heart that there is really no true love and men are all born to be polygamous. It is their uncontested ego which lulls them to the boulevard of infidelity. My apology to my unfair way of thinking yet I thought that way for over five years now.

Whew, it's been five years and I can still freshly remember every single moment of bitterness and lie. I thought I have already buried the past but whenever there is an occurrence which elicits it I felt like the hands of time pushed me again to go back and let me feel that rueful moment in my life.

On whether to go back or stay…

  Déjà vu, this dilemma was been my situation a year ago, same month and day. I was been offered a very tempting job abroad with a very good salary, a brand new car, a decent flat and an unlimited supply of food, pretty much better than my current job at the moment. Last year, I declined the offer because of the theory of fairness and common good. Like what I always say, I can't stay in an emotional trance for a long time. And now, it is all coming back, I am all here again!

            If I will go back I could buy anything I want. My long time dream to have a brand new car will just only be a snap. I could build a house for my parents and can even make a flyover (lol!) coz these greedy relatives of mine won't give us the right of way we were asking. But I know if I will go back, it entails a lot of sacrifices. A good relationship might be shaken and there'll be possibilities that we won't end up together. It is a very difficult task… I hope I could make up my mind sooner. If you are in my situation what will you do?

Been there, done that...

"Been there, done that", an adage adopted from a lawyer friend. I never realized what does the adage really mean, it was just days ago when my neurons fired and transmitted a very evocative realization.

    It's been a year now when I left a place where all cravings in your mind can be grabbed in a second. It is a place where you can get anything you wish for without any limitations. It is a den of no boundaries and a circle of beyond. Definitely, it is a haven of a dreamer, like me.

    Hypocrisy will haunt me if I say that I never liked the roller coaster ride in this blissful yet treacherous desert. But things aren't always what they seem. Especially if you inflicted pain to the persons you treasured most and when the whole obsession is an emotional trance. I felt like, I was so unfair and iniquitous, that was the time when I decided to let go.

    I always say, destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice but at this point I will negate this long time belief. Hence, destiny is a matter of chance. For even if you planned something and you know it will be in its places but if its not for you, it will never be.

    But what is important now is you learned from these experiences. Reconcile the mistakes and move on. It will be an intricate journey but I believe that time heals all wounds.

Price of Being Poor

If you are poor you have less power.
They won't even recognize you.
You can't buy the things you need.
You can't crave for luxurious possessions.
They won't even treat you nice.

Passé, yet true.

But these are not my angst for being pitiable.
I grieve because your own blood won't distinguish you,
because of the sad fact
that you are not as wealthy as them.

I am pooled in a melancholic mood
because they are not treating us fair.

So instead of wishing and working hard to be like them,
 I'd rather be poor, simple and unrecognized,
for If I have all the things they have now,
I might akin to their lifestyle…

Renew and Reconnect

A fish," according to an old saying, "would be the last to discover water." The extremely familiar tends to lie, undisturbed, below conscious levels of awareness.

    The Creator designed humans inimitably. Nevertheless, some beings have cognitive resemblance with respect to spiritual facet and that is the negligence of spiritual empowerment.

    Spiritual Dimension is the core of your life, your center and your commitment to your value system that provides the basic "leadership" to your life. It's a very private area of life and a supremely important one. It draws upon the sources that inspire and uplift you and tie you to the timeless truths of all humanity. And people do it very, very differently.

    Many of us consider ourselves Spiritual. We try to live life in a kindly way, pray some, and be considerate. We may be great meditators and positive thinkers, but each of us can face a time where we are overwhelmed, depressed, over burdened, or worried. What if's and worst case scenarios abound. It's almost as if a downward spiral pulls us further away. What can we do to easily renew our spirit, reconnect and jumpstart the importance of this valuable relationship?

    Balance is essential. When your spirit lacks, when you are overwhelmed, the balance is lost. To regain this balance try these 7 Steps to Spiritual Renewal:

* 1 - Think Positive

* 2 - Pray

* 3 - Meditate

* 4 - Go to Nature

* 5 - Be Creative / Play

* 6 - Journal to reconnect

* 7 - Give in a Positive Way

    Year 2006 is almost over and while you treat each day of multifaceted intricacies, now is the perfect time to renew your spirit.

Thoughts of letting go…

Letting go is the inner action that releases the fear and upset. The moment you let go, everything seems to change. With the fear and upset gone, you see your situation very differently. You become creative and discover solutions that you could never have seen before.

Holding on causes tension and restricts freedom. Letting go does not mean losing or having to give something up. Letting go means allowing things to exist as if they were in the palm of your hand.


This is what happens in life. The more you are able to let go and flow with life, the more life takes care of itself. You may not always get what you want, but you can always be free inside. You can restore both your peace of mind and your effectiveness. You can create a life that works.
