Poems About Being Yourself の小説・ストーリー

My every word was filled with virtue and conviction. "Being soft does not make anyone less of a person. Sometimes, we also have to be weak in order to grow stronger. Do not ever change just to conform in other people's world. Just be yourself and rule your own queendom." I gave a one last alluring smile before uttering my thank you. Everyone clapped and it was my signal to elegantly go back to my position. Nakangiti man ako habang nakaharap sa audience kanina ay hindi ko maiwasang mapapikit pagkatalikod.

Pagod na umupo ako sa kama. Fashionista ako pero sa pagkakataong to, i cant even dress myself. I want to look perfect. I sigh and lay the half of my body. Eotteokaji? ( what should i do?) I remember that i had this kind of scene on my mv. Napaupo ako. Ano nga bang ginawa ko dun? The song was all about being yourself. So the act was also about.. Being yourself.. Thats it! Napatayo ako at humarap ulit sa cabinet. All i have to do is be myself. I pick what clothes i think represent me. I smiled. This is me.

At biglang sumiklab ang sakit sa aking puso. “ I lost my beauty because I let someone else define it for me. I was a mess, I was broken. So, I built this brand to remind every woman that she can say to herself, ‘I am the most beautiful.’ It’s not a gift from anyone else. It’s a gift to yourself.” “Isabela…” mahinang bulong ko. Ilang taon na ang nakalipas pero parang tinutusok pa rin ng kutsilyo ang puso ko. Pakiramdam ko, ako pinaparinggan niya.

Sabi nila hindi masamang tumakbo, kung talagang masakit na. Hindi masamang tumakbo hidndi naman ibig sabihin noon ay talo ka. Hindi masamang subukan, minsan makikita natin ang sarili natin na mag isa. Hidni ko makakalimutan ang paborito ko na pahina noon sa libro na ilang ulit ko ng binasa. "It is all you have lost, that set you free."

I am not here because I am less than anyone else, not because I am unworthy, not because I am unappealing, not because I fall short when bringing attributes to the table. No. Due to a series of choices made by me, and only me, I am here. I remind myself that the race is long, and in the end, it’s only with myself. I remind myself that regret is a heavy burden to bear and the pain that comes with it is far from cheap. I remind myself that doing what makes me happy, regardless of what others think, is not only an important part of life, it is the only truth I know and the only part of my existence that I am sure of.

Kung anong tapang ang mayroon siya para magawa iyon ay hindi niya alam. “Sana ganyan ka rin sa sarili mo, Liberty. Handa kang ipaglaban ang iba pero hindi mo magawa sa sarilli mo…” mahina niyang sambit. “Be kind to yourself, please… you are all you have. No one will save you from drowning but yourself…”

Isang perpektong eksena, isang pamilyang buo, masaya, at walang puwang para sa kanya. Kasunod ng larawan ang maikling mensahe: [Kung may konting self-respect ka pa, huwag ka nang pumunta rito at ipahiya ang sarili mo.] Hindi na niya kailangang hulaan kung kanino galing iyon.

Kabanata 22: fooled If you don't love yourself, nobody will. Not only that, you won't be good at loving anyone else. Loving starts with yourself, of course. Hindi naman kasi iyon isang panandalian na bagay na kayang-kaya mo agad ibigay. Ang kaya mo lang naman ibigay para sa isang tao ay ang mga salita mo lamang, ngunit hindi mo kayang panindigan at iyon marahil ang aking kinatatakutan.

Muli na naman akong naiyak. "You don't need to be good for anyone or for me. Don't do it for anyone else, do it for yourself." Niyakap niya ako palapit sa dibdib niya. Binaon ko ang mukha ko doon, walang pakialam kung nababasa sya ng luha ko. Umiiyak pa rin ako. "Sana mahintay mo ako. Gusto ko maging karapat dapat sa 'yo balang araw."

Hindi ako kasali sa kanyang mundo, at mas lalong hindi sa mundo ng mga mayayaman. Tumigil ako sa harap ng salamin, at para sa unang pagkakataon, pinangarap kong makita ang sarili ko bilang taong totoo. Ang taong walang mga lihim, walang kasinungalingan, at walang iniintinding status. “Kung ikaw lang ang kayang maging totoo,” bulong ko sa sarili ko, “siguro mas madali lahat.” Bumaba ang tingin ko sa laptop. May notification si Jayden. Isang text message mula sa kanya.
