BRIDGE ACROSS FOREVER

Sabi nila, the greatest act of love is letting go. Letting go of the person you love most, and let them live their best life without you.  Edi andito tayo at one of my darkest points of life, listening to 241 by Rivermaya, tapos naalala ko si Rico Blanco at Maris Racal. Nag break sila because apparently, Rico proposed marriage to Maris, but she's not ready yet. She wants to explore and know herself more. Salute for prioritizing herself and not accepting the proposal, kasi she might just end up unhappy and disliking her husband because she sacrificed a big step in her career. Anyway, ang point ko dito was the act of letting go. Rico let her spread her wings, and watch her become the best version of herself. Finding happiness and wonders of life without him.  Anyway, my kwento today is not super similar, but I felt it was a good story to share with you (tagal kita di nakwentuhan blog), I remembered that time in my life, when I thought I was gonna marry my first love. I was young...

 Lately, I've been thinking about life, my dreams, some negative thoughts - comparing myself to my batch mates who made something already for themselves, starting a family, am I ready for that? Changing careers. You get it, I have a lot going on in my head. It hasn't come to a point na magbbreakdown ako, but I am longing for my friends. During college, before we took the board exam, or that was after I forgot. We went to a spontaneous Tagaytay trip, then we sad on a parang ledge ba or something overlooking the city. Ang pinag uusapan namin, ano na kaya mangyayare satin? Sino kaya unang magkakaanak, sino unang mag aasawa? San kaya tayo mag wwork? Mga ganon. It was so pure, and we were clueless of what lies ahead of us. Fast forward to today, all of us I would say walang napariwara. Lahat kami are working, yung iba doctor na nga and some of us nag asawa na, and may pamilya na. Me? still figuring out if I am really ready to take the leap. I would not say na naghihirap ako, I am li...

May dalawang bagay na medyo nabbother ako at kelangan ko ng kasagutan talaga. Una, bakit may parents na gustong dalhin ang baby nila sa Disneyland. Take note, mga 3 - 8 months ang pinag uusapan ha. Walang yaya na kasama. Tatlo lang daw sila. Hindi naman matatandaan ng baby yon. Kahit pakitaan mo ng pictures, di rin naman nila matatandaan. Basta alam nila nag Disneyland sila nung baby pa sila. Nag enjoy ba sila? Also, mapapagod lang yung parents mag alaga, mag tulak ng stroller. Di pa sila makakapag rides. Please enlighten me. Edit: Because this has been in my drafts for years, I got good insights coming from my friends who have done this with their kids. The gist of their answers were "creating memories", although hindi pa to masasama sa core memory ng baby, it will be sa parents. Since parents experience burnout as well, going to a place where their inner kid would enjoy is a great ice breaker to their exhausted parent bodies. haha. basta ganon. It was an eye-opener.
