The Fool

A fool is one who goes on trusting; a fool is one who goes on trusting against all his experience. You deceive him, and he trusts you; and you deceive him again, and he trusts you; and you deceive him again, and he trusts you. Then you will say that he is a fool, he does not learn. His trust is tremendous; his trust is so pure that nobody can corrupt it.

Be a fool in the Taoist sense, in the Zen sense. Don´t try to create a wall of knowledge around you. Whatsoever experience comes to you, let it happen, and then go on dropping it. Go on cleaning your mind continuously; go on dying to the past so you remain in the present, herenow, as if just born, just a babe.

In the beginning it is going to be very difficult. The world will start taking advantage of you...let them. They are poor fellows. Even if you are cheated and deceived and robbed, let it happen, because that which is really yours cannot be robbed from you, that which is really yours nobody can steal from you.

And each time you don´t allow situations to corrupt you, that opportunity will become an integration inside. Your soul will become more crystallized.

Commentary:

Moment to moment, and with every step, the Fool leaves the past behind. He carries nothing more than his purity, innocence and trust, symbolized by the white rose in his hand. The pattern on his waistcoat contains the colors of all four elements of the tarot, indicating that he is in harmony with all that surrounds him. His intuition is functioning at its peak. At this moment the Fool has the support of the universe to make this jump into the unknown. Adventures await him in the river of life.

The card indicates that if you trust your intuition right now, your feeling of the 'rightness' of things, you cannot go wrong. Your actions may appear 'foolish' to others, or even to yourself, if you try to analyze them with the rational mind. But the 'zero' place occupied by the Fool is the numberless number where trust and innocence are the guides, not skepticism and past experience.

Natawag Ka Na Bang Sir?

Tanong sa kin ni adik yan kagabi. Napagisip tuloy ako. Ilang beses na ba? Hmmm...sa natatandaan ko, siguro mga tatlong beses na...dyan sa Pinas pero hindi dito sa Qatar. Sa tatlong beses na yun, 2 dun ang alam kong hindi sinasadya at isa ang sadya. Anong dahilan? Ewan, nangaasar lang malamang. Kung papatulan mo ikaw ang talo. Isipin mo nalang na malaki ang galit ng mamang yun sa mga babaeng mas gwapo pa kesa sa kanya. Baka inggit lang kasi ikaw may girlfriend, samantalang syang lalake...wala! Ganun talaga, you cant please everybody. Masyadong masalimuot ang mundo sa mga taong katulad natin. Homophobia still exist. Tatay ko nga homophobic, what more yung ibang tao. Swerte mo nalang kung lahat ng taong makakasalamuha mo maiintidihan at matatanggap kung ano man ang choice mo. Pero kung tanggap mo sa sarili mo kung ano ka at kung sino ka, tatawanan mo nalang malamang kung ano man ang sasabihin ng iba.

dahil...

di ka naman nabubuhay para sa kanila.

pero...

kung ipipilit pa rin nila sa 'Sir' ka kahit sinabi mo nang 'Mam po, hindi sir!'

Aba...Aba...

Sapakan nalang!

ang pag-ibig natin ay walang hanggang paalam
at habang magkalayo papalapit pa rin ang puso
kahit na magkahiwalay tayo'y magkasama
sa magkabilang dulo ng mundo...

I Ask The Impossible

I ask the impossible: love me forever.
Love me when all desire is gone.
Love me with the single mindedness of a monk.
When the world in its entirety,
and all that you hold sacred advise you
against it: love me still more.
When rage fills you and has no name: love me.
When each step from your door to your job tires you--
love me; and from job to home again, love me, love me.
Love me when you're bored--
when every woman you see is more beautiful than the last,
or more pathetic, love me as you always have:
not as admirer or judge, but with
the compassion you save for yourself
in your solitude.
Love me as you relish your loneliness,
the anticipation of your death,
mysteries of the flesh, as it tears and mends.
Love me as your most treasured childhood memory--
and if there is none to recall--
imagine one, place me there with you.
Love me withered as you loved me new.
Love me as if I were forever--
and I, will make the impossible
a simple act,
by loving you, loving you as I do.

3rd Na!

Happy 3rd Baby!

I Love You!

...despite the fact that you make me crazy

to the point of almost losing my sanity,

...though you keep blaming PMS everyday of the month for your tantrums & kapraningan.

...despite the fact that you always get on my last nerve.

i wouldn't trade you for anyone else!

mahal kita....mahal kita hindi yan bola!

----------------------------------

'You come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly...'

Thank You

My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why
I got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
and I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be grey,
but your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad,
it's not so bad

I drank too much last night, got bills to pay,
my head just feels in pain
I missed the bus and there'll be hell today,
I'm late for work again
And even if I'm there, they'll all imply
that I might not last the day
And then you call me and it's not so bad,
it's not so bad and

I want to thank you
for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
is having the best day of my life

Push the door, I'm home at last
and I'm soaking through and through
Then you hand me a towel
and all I see is you
And even if my house falls down,
I wouldn't have a clue
Because you're near me and

I want to thank you
for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you
is having the best day of my life


----------------
it may not be as ideal as we want it to be for now,
but just the thought that i'll be seeing you & hearing you
even from a distance is just plain BLISS...
you keep me sane amidst all the craziness around me
but sometimes, you are the one that's making me crazy!haha! =)
I LOVE YOU though...through & through....
i hope i can give you the world...
if only i could...
