We can’t expressed ourselves if we’re always making false personality just for the acceptance of others.

Dumaan kami sa flower tunnel kung saan may mga nakasabit na quotations. "Follow your bliss." I read it aloud. Hinawakan ko ang quotation na iyon. Raeden stopped to check on me. I smiled as I repeatedly utter the phrase. "Yes. Follow your bliss." Napatingin ako kay Raeden. "Not true to all, tho. Not all people are given the chance to follow their bliss." Like me.

Ngumiti naman siya sa mismong harapan nito. "Don't ask how...trust yourself and love yourself." Tinuro niya ang bahagi kung saan nakapwesto ang puso nito."Kung ano man ang nakaraan mo, let it out, speak it out from people who you trusted the most. Iyong mga taong alam mo at nararamdaman mo na papahalagahan ka kung ano bang meron ka noon. Huwag kang matakot, huwag kang tumakbo. Harapin mo nang may lakas ng loob ang nakaraan para sa iyong magandang kinabukasan." Seryoso niyang sagot sa katanungan ni Laishia. Napayuko naman ito sa kaniyang sinabi.

“I believe that’s what authenticity is. Authenticity starts when you stop pretending… not for the world, but for yourself.” Naalala ko bigla si Uncle Easton na halos pagurin ako sa kama ngunit hindi naman ako magawan tignan kinabukasan. “In a world full of filters, it’s easy to forget that real life doesn’t come with the option to smooth your skin or fix your mistakes in one tap.” Napangiti ako nang bahagya. “Pero ang totoo, doon tayo natututo.

She nodded at me. Ako naman itong binigyan s'ya ng tipid at sensirong ngiti. I grasp her cold hands in mine. "Hindi mo kailangan ipakilala at ipakita ang sarili mo sa lahat. Hindi mo kailangan hangarin na sana lahat ay magustuhan ka, kaya dapat magpakatotoo ka lang. Kung sinong may gusto sa 'yo at tanggap ka, doon ka. H'wag mong ipilit ang sarili mo sa taong ayaw sa 'yo."

"Okay, tatandaan ko yan anak." "Tsaka last step 'tay, mahalin mo po ang sarili mo. Mahalin mo ang sarili mo nang mas higit pa sa pagmamahal mo sa kaniya.
