According to Quizilla, this is moi...hmmmm...pwede....

Your wings are DRAGON wings. Massive and covered in scales, they shimmer with strength and magic. They are the most obvious display of your power - though it runs equally throughout your heart and mind. You are uncompromising and grave, with a profound sense of justice. You have firm ideas about what is right and what is wrong and set out to fix what problems you can. You realize that you are more capable of dealing with life and evil than most, and as such you see it as your responsibility to protect those who cannot defend themselves. You have existed since antiquity and as such you are wise far beyond your years in this lifetime. While you strive for fairness and peace, if someone should steal from your cave of treasure (though not all that glitters is gold) or compromise the happiness of you or one who is close to you - they have signed their death warrant. You have a mighty vengeance and will unleash it upon such people immediately and mercilessly. Arguing with you is useless...you rarely back down and are known for holding firm in your beliefs. Sometimes you feel intensely burdened with the troubles of others...acting as a Guardian can get so wearisome. But you never give up...you see it as your life's mission. Often very introverted, you can be so smart...it's scary. Such a combination of intelligence, creativity, power, beauty, and magic is often intimidating to those around you - who are also unlikely to understand you. Arrogant, proud, overserious, and sometimes a bit greedy or obsessed with whatever treasure you choose to pursue...you have enchanted people for centuries, and will continue to do so.

Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end...

The end of the road, leastways for the one I have walked. I took a turn today. One that might come up and bite me someday. But I turned anyway. The fork in the road seemed the best way to take for the journey. T'was no easy task, believe you me. The road I turned from was always kind and accomodating. The type any traveller would want to tread to the end. 

Actually, the road that this leads to has always called out to me. There were roads back a ways that in retrospect I could have taken. But it seems it was fated that I should turn today. And I have come to realize that even if I didn't turn this way, tomorrow, the road will always inevitably lead me to this road I am now walking on.

This road is for the moment, dark yet not gloomy. I am alone, with naught but a few whispers of confidence the wind brings every now and then. It seems bumpy, uneven and the travel seems slightly uphill. Fog covers most of the visibility, and I cannot see any but a few feet in front of me, yet I can feel that my feet were made to tread this path. The road beyond calls me to it with a power I cannot comprehend, and pulls me with a power I cannot easily brush aside.

I fear the road, yet I fear more for what might happen if I turn back.

I fear the road, yet somehow I know it was the one appointed for me to take.

This road is mine now.

And I will walk it.

I will walk it till it turns again into some sunny crossing where against all hope, all that I have dreamed of, I will find. And there I hope to find that beginning, from that some other beginning's end.

http://quizilla.com/users/wgryph/quizzes/What%20Finding%20Nemo%20Character%20are%20You%3F/

Well, I can now honestly say that I have a favorite TV show. Even if I don't watch it on TV, that's just a technicality. "Friends" Forever! hehehe.

Friendaissance

In a previous post, I mentioned that 2004 barged into our lives like an elephant in a china shop. When huge things barge into a room full of fragile things, then there's bound to be broken valuables here and there. Thankfully, that elephant was a calm one. Despite its huge girth, all it managed was a few broken plates, lots of shaken plates, lots of plates and cups displaced, and more than a few nervous wrecks breathing heavily in its wake.

So, to recover from that jarring start to the year, some friends and myself locked up at our pad (owned by the tres muchachos - popot, slither and I) for five days, basically doing nothing but watch "Friends" DVDs. We managed to watch seasons 4-9. That's 24 episodes per season. And yes, if you must ask, we did'nt get much sleep. We did get to laugh much, and cry a lot, and laugh again and again. All thanks to "Friends".

It's really very therapeutic, doing nothing but that. (Honestly. For those who are interested, just give us a buzz). But more importantly, we rediscovered our great friendships which were stretched by distance, time, and lack of communication. As Phoebe so eloquently put it, we had a "Friendaissance" during that brief week.

To those who stayed at the pad, I hope we could do that again. When the time comes that the "Friends" show is no longer there, I know you guys will still be around. So here's to Friends! May they keep us laughing even when we've seen the episodes hundreds of times over. And here's to real friends. May we all grow old together, and never have one divorce between us!

Chasing Dreams...

Yet here I am. I chase…I dream...I chase...

Whilst browsing through my clutter of files in my PC, I came across this. Can't remember when I wrote this though...

Somewhere

I know where you are,

My heart feels you are far…

Yet I feel your love more keenly than I feel my own breath

So much that I am winded whenever your thought touches

I love you and you know, but I am not there

Yet you feel me more keenly

than the pale warm rays that touch your eyes in the morning.

When I sleep I always pray, that somehow,

Yours and my dreams will meet,

in that place where only the angels dare

In that place beyond all time, all love and soul,

There between the waking and the dreaming

In that place where all else fails, save you and I

Cocoy, borrow. Thanks.

Love Song

Rainer Maria Rilke

How can I keep my soul in me, so that

it doesn't touch your soul? How can I raise

it high enough, past you, to other things?

I would like to shelter it, among remote

lost objects, in some dark and silent place

that doesn't resonate when your depths resound.

Yet everything that touches us, me and you,

takes us together like a violin's bow,

which draws one voice out of two separate strings.

Upon what instrument are we two spanned?

And what musician holds us in his hand?

The Pad Boys with the newlyweds Cocoy and Amy Campos.

Just trying things out. I've forgotten how to upload photos. Bear with me. Here's wawel doing his thing at the ROTK Premier...

Roller-Coaster

Mae Govanen

I resigned from work today, effective 30 January 2004. Yes, from this point I am jobless, and the funny thing is, I am not afraid nor worried.

And why would I be? I have a God that saw me through a very tumultuous start for 2004. From day 1, meaning January 1st, it was apparent to me that this year will be a year of dramatic changes. Months worth of wrongs had to be made right in a week. Years worth of sorrows had to be faced in a span of days. And whole lifetimes of habits and perceptions had to be erased and modified in less time that it takes to bake a cake. Yes...it has been a trying first three weeks. But despite all the difficulties, God has led me and the people involved through it.

And it was not only me. A lot of my friends had a very difficult start of the year too, and I can say with confidince that they too feel God's movements in their lives. They're doing well, and I thank God for that.

The roller coaster ride is far from over though, since the first month is even barely over. Many things still need to be set right. Many questions, still unanswered need to be shed light on. Many fears are there that still need to be faced.

I have a feeling that this year will prove to be a most memorable one.

The roller coaster ride goes on...

"Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go."

- T.S. Elliot

Well, in the spirit of my Re-blogging, I'm posting some of the more memorable posts I made in the first one. Here goes...

The Sun...
At first I thought you were an angel,
but now I know you are not.
No, but something more…
You are the sun. An earthbound star
You are gravity. Pulling me to you,
making me turn,
revolve,
whether I would or no…
Yet I cannot touch you, for you are fatal aflame
You burn, when I get too close.
You are the reason I wake every morning
Hope, you give to keep running another day
Darkness creeps in when you’re not there
And like everything else in this world
My life starts, and ends with you...

When I'm gone
When will you love me?
When mine arms can no longer hold you,
When my ears cannot hear your silken cries?
When will you love me?
When I am no longer there to dry the raindrops from your eyes?
When will you love me?
When all chance for this heart and yours to beat side by side is gone,
When my eyes wander far from your face...to the horizon, to the unknown?
Do you love me now? Maybe...yet only you would know.
Mayhap, you will love me when I'm gone.

Forgive me, I flinched
Forgive me, I flinched when you pushed away
I'm not a superman afterall,
no matter how much I try to be for you
I'm human, like all those who came before
I flinched, hurt and weakened
You are my kryptonite afterall

...

I believe that we were sent into this world for a purpose.
I believe that we are sent here with someone, that we were not meant to fulfill that purpose alone.
I know I was sent here, with her.
Only that in our descent from that place where time and love meet, we were separated.
I found her, I think.
Years ago, coming from my low of lows.
Yet I didn't recognize her
But I know I had loved her then.
And the years passed, and we lost touch,
and found each other, in a neverending cycle of "Hi's" and "Hello"'s.
And in the last, I realized that I loved her, but...

Re-Blog.

I'm Back...I guess.
