Niyakap ko ang sarili ko nang mabasa ko ang message niya. I can't stop my own tears. Parang may sarili silang buhay. Alam nilang nasasaktan at

Ngumiti nalang din ako. Wala na rin naman akong magagawa dahil ito ang buhay na pinili ko. Kung tutuosin din naman, marami naman talaga akong choices. Ewan ko ba kong bakit hindi ko maiwan ang ganitong buhay. Dahil kaya talaga ito sa pinaniniwalaan kong sanay naman na ako sa ganitong buhay at lalong-lalo na kay Ohani o sadyang unti-unti na talaga akong nagbabago dahil sa kanya?

tanong ko. “Hindi na pera ang usapan,” sagot niya. “Lahat ng tao may presyo,” sagot ko. “Hindi kapag survival na,” balik niya. Napangisi ako nang bahagya. “Then we make him choose.” Lumapit ako sa kanya. “Protection o kamatayan.” Hindi siya gumalaw. “Hindi na ikaw ang nagbibigay ng choice,” sabi niya.

“Two…” Hindi makapag desisyon si Stefan. Hindi niya nais sabihin kung nasaan ang mga ito subalit kinakailangan niyang mabuhay. Para sa kaniya ay ito na ang pinakamabigat na decision making niya sa buhay. “You already made your choice. One…”

A choice, that's to make, a responsibility if you wanted to. You need to be okay with being uncomfortable because it's going to help you grow. Reason why, your by my side is also a choice of mine. To keep and love you forever.”Napatango na lang ako. Nakapikit parin ako ngayon. Sabagay may punto din si Sean.

Because I am now freeing myself from everything that has been keeping me away from You. "Be reassured knowing that it is your choices that determine whether you will live your best life. You can choose to suffer, or choose to rise above, and I promise that you can always rise above. Most importantly, in finding your strength and striving to persevere, you will always be able to handle anything. When it comes to fighting the odds and roadblocks, just always tell yourself this simple truth: you've got this, Ramona..."

"You were human. And that girl made her choice. I know it may sound as though it's easier said than done. But what she did was not right too. She knew your friend was already in a committed relationship. Yet she chose to still be involved with him. At the end of the day, your life is defined by the choices you've made. She made a choice. All you could have done, if there was ever a chance to was to guide her on what she could have done. But then, it wasn't something that she wanted to do. She made her choice." "Somehow, that simple truth is too hard to actually accept. Bakit kaya ganun no? We wish for the people who left peace. Pero tayong naiiwan ang hindi nagiging payapa sa pag-iisip tungk

tanong niya sa akin, pero mukhang may halong biro. I smirked. “I chose to because I have to. Wala akong nakitang ibang choice noong panahon na ‘yon,” I said and waited for his reply in the darkness. “Ang pagpili palaging na sa iyo. It's something that depends on you all the time. Katulad ng mga magulang natin, they chose what's the best for us and that's their your choice for you, para sa iyo mula sa iba. Sometimes magde-decide ka rin nang ganoon like me, I chose to help you not thinking of my own sake, desisyon mo ba na maligtas ka? It's the difference between the two, we decide for others and we decide for us. Choosing sometimes was the hardest thing but if you choose carefully you can cha

She was so sick, she almost died. It became the turning point of my life. I just realized how naive and stupid I was when it comes to love. I was willing to give my all, wala akong tinira sa sarili ko. Kinalimutan ko lahat ng tao at bagay na nakapaligid sakin, I only focused to that one person. At first, sakanya ko sinisi lahat. That's how shallow I was. Pero nang tumagal, na-realize ko na kasalanan ko 'yon lahat. It was all on me. I make decisions with my own life.

"Because it's easy to tame others than to tame myself."
