Quotes from three of the books I’ve read early this year.

The Time Keeper by Mitch Albom
…. That holding on to things “will only break your heart”

Sometimes, when you are not getting the love you want, giving makes you think you will.

But common sense has no place in first love and never has…

It is never too late or too soon. It is when it is supposed to be.


The First Phone Call from Heaven by Mitch Albom

… the pain we suffer is a way to make us appreciate what comes next…

There is a time for hello and a time for goodbye. It’s why the act of burying things seems natural, but the act of digging them up does not.

People do stupid things when they are tired.

Love.. You are born in it… you return to it.

What is false about hope?

If you find one true friend in your life, you’re richer than the most. If that one true friend is you husband, you’re blessed.

Desire sets our compass, but real life steers our course.


Every Day by David Levithan

Fair enough. Tomorrow is tomorrow. Let’s end today on a nice note.

I wake up thinking of yesterday. The joy is in remembering; the pain is in knowing it was yesterday.

Kindness connects to who are, while niceness connects to how you want to be seen.

There are many things that can keep you in a relationship. …. Fear of being alone. Fear of disrupting the arrangement of your life. A decision to settle through with that’s okay, because you don’t know if you can get any better. Or maybe there’s the irrational belief that it will get better, even if you know he wont change.

There will always be questions. Every answers leads to more questions. The only way to survive is to let some of them go.

No past. No future. Just present. Give it a chance.

When first love ends, most people eventually know there will be more to come. They are not through with love. Love is not through with them. It will never be the same as the first, but it will be better in different ways.

    Ang bigat sa dibdib ng mga quotes na ito... pero mas napaisip ako dito..."It’s why the act of burying things seems natural, but the act of digging them up does not."

    Andon na ko sa intention of burrying things eh, pero pagdating don sa actual na ibabaon mo na para makalimot, saka ka magbaback out... hanggang di mo na magawa... siguro nga tama yong quote, kasi malamang sa alamang... kung matuloy yong act of burying... baka the following day, hinukay ko na ulit hahaha

      We all have different coping mechanisms in accepting realities and hurtful moments in our past. Usually, they might look weird for some people. Eventually, we will have to totally let go :D :D

    Hmmm... what's the deal ba with Mitch Albom and almost everybody else is raving about his books? Insipirational ba genre niya o yung tipong parang self-help book?

The Man Behind the Metaphors

The skies had been dark like a storm is coming. It had been raining the whole night long and when I woke up that day, I had fears that Sir Jonathan can’t come to school anymore due to the heavy downpour. I opted not to ask for I may just get the dreaded response. I prepared for school. Ate breakfast, brought my laptop since I thought I may just have to stop by a coffee shop after school and finish the item analysis I am doing. It was very difficult to get a ride. I wish I can afford to buy a car and save myself and my stuff from getting wet and so that I can bring more things to school for experiments and so that I can to all the places I wanna go to and I don’t have to worry about over-packing stuff and I have thought about all of these just because its raining heavily and I have no school bus anymore L When I arrived, the school seem deserted. No kids nor parents were at the gate. The guard told me that the principal decided to suspend the class lest the heavy rains cou...

Just a few days ago, I posted   This Is Plagiarism   together with other write ups. And I never thought I would have this kind of Reply from   Mr. Tripster   J   who called himself   The Epaloid Lover na Feeling Ako Yung Sinulatan Here’s the entire comment: Mr. Tripster 14 March 2013 08:39 This is epalness.... Hi! I'm fine. It's really great to hear from you. I'm not trapped in the future, I do not dwell in the past. I'm simply in your dreams. You have difficulty finding me because you sometimes look in the wrong places and in the wrong moments of the day. Therefore, I cannot manifest in your world. My present is a blur and yet it's blissful. But everything will be clear if we both make a decisive choice and a giant leap of faith in our lives. How soon? I really don't know. We don't ask silly questions. It's just that sometimes we need wisdom. I'd like to be there now. But I'm no master of my time. I'm n...

11 Things I Will Miss

-
Malapit na malapit na! Magpapaalam na ko sa pagkabampira. Ang pinakaunang kong career ay nagsimula sa BPO hanggang sa napadpad na ko sa mga “captive sites” companies, at hindi ko ipagkakaila ang malaking pasasalamat ko sa   pagkakataong naibigay sakin sa loob nang mahigit anim na taon. Marami akong natutunan, maraming nais kalimutan at syempre mas marami yung nais kong manatili lalo na yung pagkakaibigan at mga aral sa buhay na nabuo habang ako'y nasa trabaho at nakikisalamuha. Dahil ako ay magbabagong-buhay, nag-isip ako ng mga bagay na talaga namang mamimiss ko pag umalis ako sa pagka nocturnal being. 1. Airconditioned Office - Ang init ngayon! Obvious naman, ang mga callcenters/corporate centers ay may aircons, may alam ba kayong hindi? Ipagbigay alam sa kinauukulan.  2. Ergonomic Chair - na most of the time ay ergonomic bed na din. Natuto akong matulog nang nakaupo.--those split-second moments of opportunity para makadaupang-palad si Sleep.  3....
