Thoughts About Life Novels & Stories

Gusto niya na rin ng tahimik na buhay at magkaroon ng sariling pamilya. Gusto niya na ring maranasan na walang problemang iniisip, gusto niya ng payapa ang isip niya pero hindi niya maiwasan na hindi isipin minsan kung mararanasan pa ba niya yun o kung ito na ang buhay na nakatadhana para sa kaniya.

"In what way?" "I used to think that everything was about business, about success," tugon niya, tila malalim ang iniisip. "But you... you've reminded me that there's more to life than just work. You’ve been a constant presence in my life, and I’ve grown to rely on you in ways I didn’t expect."

Nalulungkot ang nanghihina niyang mga mata. "Things happen when you least expect them. You shouldn't be regretting your life choices. Instead, cherish them. Either they were the worst or the best. There's no more point of regretting. Move on from the past and look forward to the future. That's the best you can do to enjoy your remaining days," I said. He then looked at me and smiled. "Seems like you know a lot about life." "I am no expert. I just know how you feel with your situation right now. I knew the feeling of something about to end and you can't just do something about it. All you can do is to live everyday and wait until your last breath comes."

O ewan. Sa ngayon ay masasabi ko na rin naman na nasanay na rin akong mabuhay ng ganito kahit papaano. Nag aalala pa rin ako paminsan minsan, oo. Especially everytime that I am having thoughts about my job, my family, and my friends. Maisip ko pa lang kung gaano sila posibleng nag aalala sa akin ay napapabuntung hininga na lang ako. Iyon lang naman kasi ang pwede kong magawa sa ngayon.

Kailangan ba talagang masaktan para may matutunan? We are suffering a lot because we only think about how unfair life is, we ask a lot, and we complain a lot. Hindi natin nabibigyan ng halaga kung gaano tayo ka swerte sa mga maliliit na bagay. Ang buhay ay napaka komplikado, akala natin sumasang ayon na sa atin ang pagkakataon ngunit dahil lang sa isang pangyayari biglang mababago na lamang ang lahat. We need to cherish every triumph and happy moment we have with each other. We need to make memories every passing day just to remind ourselves that we are so blessed and grateful.

Malaya akong magmahal, magbigay ng tawad, magbigay ng inspirasyon, at lahat-lahat para mai-offer ko sa buong mundo ang layunin kong dapat na gawin. Despite the hard times in our lives, we seldomly forget to see the good things. I know it's too blurry to see how to survive but isn't always about merely surviving. It's all about living. It's all about how you are existing at the moment, if we only die once? Then live now. I'm not saying that it will be easy, but take your time, after all this isn't a race, it's about championing your own path in the pursuit of your victory.

Kanina pa umuwi si Spencer at talagang tinapos namin ang movie, and after I watched the movie, many realizations hit me. Oo, hindi madali ang buhay; marami pa tayong dapat pagdaanan at ilalaban, marami pa tayong isasakrapisyo. At higit sa lahat, marami pa tayong mga taong makikila na hindi natin inaasahang sisira sa ating pagkatao. Life is all about survival and we are all a players in this game called 'life'. tho, that's life.

It’s tiring to overthink about a lot of things. And maybe I was thinking that my life right now is not really the life I expect it to be. “What are you doing?” tanong ng isang malamig na tinig na galing sa labas.

she muttered and kissed me on the cheek. Napangiti ako sa sobrang saya. I feel so contented. Wala talagang pinipiling oras ang mga masasaya at mga malulungkot na karanasan sa buhay. Life is not all about pains and sufferings. It's not all about joy and excitement. It's not only about love or sex or failures. Because life makes this world balanced. Life makes us attain our own equilibrium to be stronger than before. Every situation comes and goes. But if we take courage and stay strong, we'll always win every battle and fight.

Nawalan na ako ng oras para magmuni-muni. The older we get, the more we realized that being grateful because of simple things makes life more beautiful; waking up every morning, drinking a cup of coffee while reminiscing the dream we just had, looking forward to see the smile on children's faces and just wondering what will happen for the day or the next coming days. The older we get, the more we realized lots of things. More questions to ask and more answers to seek. There will be a time that we will asked ourselves if what we did or had was all worth it; the sacrifices, the pains or the heartbreaks.
