Lost?

It is 1 am, and I cannot sleep. I keep thinking about my life so far... thoughts about the future, thoughts about what I have done with my life. Thoughts about what I should be doing are floating in my head right now... I try, but I cannot get a solid grasp of what they are. I cannot even put them to words, but I know, I am at a point in my life where I am reassessing my direction, my priorities... deciding what road to take... deciding whether to throw caution to the wind and follow my heart or stay rational and logical and follow my brain...
It is tough when you do not know where you are. When you are fearful that you have missed a corner and now traveling down a very different road. It is hard when you cannot read the signs and there is no way for you to know which direction you ought to take. It is scary when you know that you have no one other than your self to blame for whatever mistakes you made...
Run and hide or face it... seems so simple, but in truth is very hard to answer... I wish I had the courage to face everything head on... but sometimes, there are things that are better left in the dark... better left unopened... better left alone... and this thing... whatever it is, seems like one of those things... I will try to leave it alone for now... and then reassess maybe in a few weeks time, if I have enough courage or will to face it...

Chronicles of an Emo Bear 104

I should be happy right now because this was the sign I prayed for. This is what I wanted. This is the “right thing” to do. You just made it easier with your “stupidity”.

BUT… why does it feel so difficult?

It is so damn difficult to push away someone you desperately want to stay because it is the “right thing” to do. But what hurts more is when find yourself still wishing the person is there despite the fact the person cannot be with you.

“The farther I go away from you… the closer you feel inside…”

Anak ng…so EMO!

On Annoying Drivers

Would you tolerate the so-called skills of those annoying bus, taxi and jeepney drivers? Would you let their king of the road attitude go by? Or would you allow them to stress you and go neck to neck with them?

These infuriating drivers have their reasons for acting as such. Imagine weaving through only in the Philippines traffic all day long. It is a tough life out there, you know. They need to make a living by getting as many passengers and trips as they can. However, are these good reasons or explanations for their actions? How come in other countries drivers of public transportations follow the rules? Drivers should have discipline kasi.

Then again, how could people have discipline if people with authority break the rules as well? There are rules but no action or no right implementation. This is sad.

So what would you do? Let those reckless drivers get away or stand up for what your rights?
