SOON

Barren hills of sadness and pain
Mountains of emptiness and rain
Amidst it all the sun hasn’t shone.

Alas, my heart, cease your cryin'
Soon, a flow’r will bloom in the rain.

Run, my heart! No home for you here
Sing your sad song, cry your bitter tear

Gales of sorrow in this sea of horror
All around you, darkness and terror... but pray,
In the night, a moon shall be born.

Mourn, oh heart! Death is at the door
End of the pain and crosses you bore
All is gone now, love’s not your own
Love lost, loneliness won.


but...


beyond the horizon,
the sun is shining
the tears will end
the heart will mend...

soon.....

sorry, everyone... didn't mean to rub my transient depression on any of you... give me two more entries and i'll be as good as new... i mean, as the old me... it's probably just a coping mechanism, cuz now that the physical pain has abated, the pain inside seemed to come to the surface...

of big shoes and lessons

April 2001 I woke up early this morning and went straight to doing my weekend chores...like hanging a two-week worth of laundry under the sun (before the sun is up), afterwhich I went back to bed to do some reading. Three hours later, my mom came and said, "Men ina-no? Ollaw law!" (Are you ready? We're about to leave!") I was confused for a moment then I realized it's the first Saturday of the month and I need to be somewhere to teach. It totally slipped my mind as my mind was still all over the place from Xami's stay in the hospital and then traveling right after it and coming home again. I changed and put my things in my backpack and was gonna put on my shoes only to realize I don't have any appropriate shoes. I asked the hubby if I can try one of his and a pair looked not so bad as the others. So off we went with me looking like I have boats attached to my feet rather than shoes. I used the lesson that I prepared for a women's conferenc

ADDICTIONS

My addictions are weird but I think these are not unique to me.  I have three addictions and I am very glad that I have overcome one of them, at least for now.   #SUGAR_ADDICT  Over a month ago, I was probably one of the worst sugar/carb addict there is.  Since I was diagnosed with diabetes almost three decades ago, I went into a rollercoaster of dieting and fasting and binge eating.  I would weigh myself, get disgusted with what I see and resolve to eat nothing for a week. I would lose 10kg, then the following week, I would eat all the calories that I restricted myself from and more.  Then in April of last year I tried the ketogenic diet and it was working for a month or so until an aunt commented that I will get all wrinkly and saggy if I lose too much weight and my mind used that statement as an excuse to go back to my standard way of eating which has always left me feeling and looking bloated, inflamed, fat, and ugly.  It also aggravated all my health issues specially w
