the last song

 

The Last Song.  Exactly one week after watching this film, I lost the most important man in my life…  I can still remember how emotional I was while watching it.  I felt that in more ways than one, that Nicholas Sparks’ masterpiece tugged my heart to its very core.  I can relate so much to Ronnie on how she tried to be there for his dad until his last breath…just exactly what I did…  In the movie, Ronnie and her dad Steve connected thru music while my Fuder and I had this connection thru good food and good conversation. 

I have so many memories of him kept in my heart but this film also reminds me how lucky I am to have that kind of relationship with my Fuder.  The level of pain of losing him is much still the same, needless to say, while writing this blog, tears began to well up in my eyes… it’s just not the same without him.  I have so much fear that one day, I can no longer recall his voice and the tone of his laughter.  I don’t want that to happen…

Now, I’m trying so hard to live my life the way he wanted me to live it.  I want him to be proud of me even he’s already up there.  I am now 33 and I will get older, but to him, I will always be his little girl… his bunso…

I love you ‘Tay! ♥

p.s. btw, this is something i learned from my fuder
"Dreaming is free so dream without limits, no boundaries."

wish granted

When Yen asked us to go on a road trip, we're all willing to go but the problem was Ate Memey might not be able to join us because she's still recuperating from her surgery.  So we settled for an overnight bonding with Yen's special request, there should be a BONFIRE!

So Duck tried his best to find the perfect place and luckily, he found one.

someone like you




SOMEONE LIKE YOU
By: Adele

I heard, that you're settled down.
That you, found a girl and your married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things, I didn't give to you.

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold it back or hide from the light.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited.
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded,
That for me, it isn't over.

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best, for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah.

You'd know, how the time flies.
Only yesterday, was the time of our lives.
We were born and raised in a summer haze.
Bound by the surprise of our glory days.
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded,
That for me, it isn't over.

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you say:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead", yay.

Nothing compares, no worries or cares.
Regret's and mistakes they're memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remembered you say:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yay yeh yeah.

‘Heard this song “Someone Like You” by Adele.  Sad song but as I grasped the lyrics, I ended up smiling.  Few years ago, in one way or another, those were the exact words hidden in my heart, “Nevermind, I’ll find someone like you.  I wish nothing but the best for you too.  Don’t forget me, I beg…”  Those were the things I wanted to say.  The exact emotions I kept. 

But now, it’s a different story.  Things have changed.  People change.  I for one, changed.  Looking back, it still amazes me how I was able to recover and rebuild myself again because at that time, I was so broken.  Alive but dead.  I may be one of those brokenhearted who wished not to wake up again because the pain was so unbearable.  But now, I have come to realize that everything happened for a reason.  It was part of Father God’s divine plan for me.  I had to go through all those pains, anger and heartaches.  It took me quite a while before I accepted what happened.

It was a beautiful story with a beautiful beginning but it has to end.  Some good things never last cliché?  Maybe yes but maybe not.  Now, I’d like to say that maybe it was just a prelude to our individual stories.  He had found his one great love while I remain waiting until Father God reveals His plans for me.  Before, a lot of questions were in my mind such as what went wrong, what happened and so many why’s.  I can’t believe at that time that he’s capable of hurting someone, especially me.  More than a girlfriend, we used to be the best of friends.  But eventually, I realized that no matter how harsh or gentle he did it, I would still end up hurting.  It was something he can’t avoid even if he tried.  Getting hurt was inevitable.  In all fairness with him, I want to believe he really tried that’s why our relationship lasted for almost four years.  It was not perfect.  There were bumps and forks on the road, but all in all, it was four good years.

He may not know this, but I somehow admire his courage of getting out from his safe zone and what he used to call home to go after his real happiness.  But their stories are not mine to tell.  They’re the only ones who can narrate the events that took place in their union.

As for me, I’m still waiting for that someone that Father God chose to be “God’s Best” for me.  But right now, while waiting, I just enjoy the gift of being single to the fullest.  I’m giving myself the time to explore the things I wanted to do.  Learn to be a better individual each day and be the best person I can be.  I have all the time to grow and I don’t want to waste that given opportunity.  I want to love myself more.  So when the right time comes, my “God’s Best” will see me as a whole person.  And afterwards, it is now my time to start my own “happily ever after” story. ☺

More love to everyone! ♥
