The Call

There comes a time when people cry and regret the things they haven’t said and done when the person was still there with them. You’ll wonder what if you did those and said those when you had the chance, before it’s too late. It is then you’ll realize that time isn’t forever and everyone has their own limit. It is then you’ll realize that time is so precious that you have to spend it wisely. And you’ll realize that we can’t go back to those times in the past.

I knew that my mother was dead but I didn’t react because it wasn’t sinking in my head. It was too unexpected and I definitely couldn’t believe it. My mother is still here and she’s not gone, maybe she went somewhere else. But then my relatives were crying and now it hit me so hard that the thought of my mother can’t be with us finally came through me. My eyes were leaking with tears and it won’t stop and I just can’t stand the fact that I don’t have my mother anymore.

The hot air filling the room woke me up. I felt there were tears in the corner of my eyes and opened my eyes and darkness was there I checked my phone and it was already 10 o’ clock in the morning. A glimpse of light greeted me as I opened the door. Thank God it was just a dream even though it felt so surreal. I rushed down the stairs and dialed the telephone number of my mother’s office.

As our short conversation was coming to an end I knew in my mind that I have to say it before it’s too late and I finally said, “I love you Ma.” Knowing it was just a dream definitely made me realize that we must treasure the time we have to let our loved ones feel we love them and we care for them. As much as possible we have to do it every day so that we can feel the happiness because it made them happy. Time was given by God because each of us has to use it to create memories that would last forever. Living a life without any regrets would let you think that you can go because your duties are done. 

Gal Pals

Suddenly found a quote on Pinterest saying, “We weren’t sisters at birth but we knew from the start we were put on this earth to be sisters at heart.” Nothing compares to these girls from the things I am proud having of.  They were those kind of chums who were like precious gems that you would keep forever. I wish that laughter, sadness, craziness and happiness would strike us once again to bring back the old times when we were still together. I’m not saying that we’re torn apart now but sad to say we attend to different schools now and that’s what keeping us apart.

Let me introduce my gorgeous best of friends. The girl on the left is Chrislee Torres next to her is Fely Enriquez  and on the right is Roushayne Agravante. Even though the distance keeps us apart we still have time for each other like hanging out sometimes when everyone’s free. But one of us don’t really have her free time because Fely’s living in the other dimension just kidding, to be honest she’s in Manila and we miss her a lot though. I find myself being comfortable with them and I can show the real me.

I’m going to describe Chrislee as a girl who’s strong on the outside but fragile on the inside, she tends to show herself as an independent young woman who faces her circumstances seriously but sometimes not. We call her Shayne, it’s her nickname and she’s a fighter she’s also vigorous in terms of dealing her problems but sometimes it’s burden is too heavy that she cries and seeks out for our help. Fely’s a girl who can be crazy sometimes but not literally because sometimes she can be fun, angry, annoyed, irritated, cute, full of jolliness and etc. But when you get to know her you’d understand what she feels and how you’d react on how she sees things in her own perspective. My group of gals have different personalities which makes them standout.

I can’t forget the moments we shared, the fun and laughter I experienced. My world with them is like a rollercoaster, I enjoy the ride of life when you’re not alone. Making me feel I’m not lonely in this world and that is because they’re beside you in sickness and in health, in sadness and joy, in pain and in sorrow. In this world nowadays it’s hard to find things that are real because it’s getting rare. The value of friendship is priceless that even the richest man who lives can’t afford it. There are things in life only you can have, only you can find and only you can keep.

The memories we share I won’t ever forget. These past episodes of us keeps us being connected together as one and as an individual. Life might give us the greatest challenge to test our friendship and I’d truly hope that we could overcome this together without one of us letting go from one’s hand. I am proud to say that these unbiological sisters of mine are truly the best of all and that I thank God for giving them. I’d be treasuring the people I love and keep them warm in my heart.
