just thoughts

change may or may not be a very nice word, sometimes.

it is often said that change is the only word that can change - over time, without being felt, may even be unwelcome, even amongst friends, colleagues and neighbors. from where i am at, we are having a change in the outlay of plans, values, ideas, ideals and ideologies. with or without allowing anyone to, even at a glance or a mere murmur, to inhibit the clause for change, beyond the ordinary, even after the call of duty, albeit the stench of traditional, existential, and, nihilistic adherence of the status quo that may, or may not, blow up in our very own often misjudged, often miscontrued, sometimes misunderstood, mishap, double jeopardy and freedom often taken away - either by brute force, silent demeanor, lethal and or often tactile feelings of absence - from the heart, to the mind, to one's humanity, and existense.

altho, things may often get heated sometimes, volatile to the fact that change may, or may not, take a back seat towards the unrelentless assault, still, grateful inspite of every problem, or worries - freedom is in the air once more - blessed to what's here and now. Often, glad for all the realities, that my or may not bite, still looking forward to all that's within our grasp and to all the imprints of the mind that we are still hoping to achieve, and or may have already achieved.

my take: change
is always a welcome respite to being Pinoy.

summer thoughts

so, how's your summer vacation's been?

if you're askin' me...mine's been sweltering, svelte and really sweaty (of course, it's a grand summer vacation, hehe). and i've started to really adapt and adopt my neutral tones (that's skin, surfin' and sunbathin'), amidst a lot of shoppe and shop talk with my family, circle of friends and my S.O. (hmm, significant other? or maybe, just maybe: simple overtures that may constitute to a great deal of musicality, notes of theatrical originality, take your pick...), for abbreviations and letters may mean a lot too, or may differ in some sense. you get my drift, naman di ba? (grins)

while on the topic of summertime, one of my fave songs by Richard Marx come to mind: "Endless Summer Nights"...just a few lyrics and i am in my smiley & sunshiny mood again...

...and i remember how you love me
time was all we had until the day you said goodbye
and i remember every moment
all those endless summer nights...

my take: do remember that each day, and, each night will leave a thought of either bliss, or sad memories, these are but pains that both you and I need to go thru...for each day will always be a learning experience and another chance to dwell on the varying shades of life.

ciao, bella!
