I don't have much to say but I am thankful for another year of life. Happy 24th birthday to me.

I am actually walking while writing this — from locale to home, maybe a kilometer away. I've been doing this for almost 5 years, and sometimes much later than 12:12 a.m (current time).

It's always a midnight ritual after Thanksgiving to thank God, observing how the world is sleeping. It's a form of free therapy, a privilege to witness a scenery that differs greatly from daytime. The soothing sound of air gives me gentle hugs — I feel it all over my body, especially now that the cold December air penetrates my skin. The silence conveys a message, "Stop for a while, and everything will be alright!" The calmness envelops the usually crowded road, which, during the daytime, is filled with cars and trucks causing heavy traffic congestion. I love this scenario and consider it a privilege.

Birthdays aren't a big deal for me, but this day is an exception. Kindness truly moves people, and I am happy to be one of those who are moved by it. I'd be lying if I said that this year is not exhausting. However, I know that there's light at the end of this tunnel.

To those people who have always been there with me in this sojourn, I cannot thank you enough, nor can I repay you in cash, literally, for all the inconveniences that I have caused you. Let me just assure you that WHEN I HAVE THE CAPACITY TO HELP, I'LL PAY IT FORWARD. I'll pay it forward.

I have nothing to do since it's the holiday season, so I decided to rummage through my things and organize them in a box. Every now and then, it's my ritual to check all of those; I don't know, maybe it brings me back to the time when I was truly happy. An instant time machine.

Those things are from my high school years – a notebook where I wrote my poems and flash fiction. I didn't even realize I had written that much until today.

That one in the photo is somehow close to my heart because it's me—a 16 or 17-year-old kid—believing how dreams might lift me up. As I mentioned before, I stopped college for three years due to financial problems. However, when I'm working, it feels empty inside me. That emptiness pushed me to study again after three years of working. It's been two years, and is it hard? Yes. But is it worth it? Absolutely! To those people out there, it's never too late to become what you might have been. Start working. Start dreaming and keep dreaming!

MODERN OZYMANDIAS WEARS SUIT

Flash fiction | by ANak

My advice to the youth today is to complete your education as much as possible. Having a good educational background is still crucial for gaining trust in the workforce. After all, who would trust someone without education for a job position? I've experienced rejection before, so despite life's challenges, I worked hard. Everyone aspires to become wealthy or have financial stability. I did everything to improve my life. I pursued my goals, and others' opinions didn't matter. They were just envious. If I had paid attention to them back then, would I be a successful businessman like this now? A little investment is all it takes for an election, then you'll be satisfied with the public's money collection.

i'll get through with this. 🙂

[anakpil]

if sun still shines,

rain still falls,

and earth still rotates,

then I still love you.

[anakpil]

At this point, I realized that what we all want is to be happy.

[anakpil]

I am at peace right now.

[anakpil]

it's time to fire the torch of my passion. Almost 2 years of playing and not focusing on my very purpose why i decided to start again.

[anakpil]

it's nice to be back here on tumblr. i am reading my writings after a year and it's nice to reminisce the pain while i am now at my 100% healed heart condition. Oh, another thing is, after working for three years I decided to go back at school and study again. it's been two years since then and it's worth it!

kasabay ng paglalim ng gabi ay ang paglalim ng nararamdaman.

sinasalungat ng ingay ng pusong naghuhumiyaw ang katahimikan ng kapaligiran.

patuloy ang pag ihip ng hangin,

nagdaragdag lamig sa pusong ikaw sana ang pangginaw.

Ikaw sana ang magbibigay ng init,

ngunit ikaw ang sanhi ng sakit.

ako ang nagbigay ng karapatan para ako'y iyong masaktan.

wala kang pananagutan,

dahil mananatiling sikreto ang aking nararamdaman at kailanman ay hindi mo malalaman.

[anakpil]

Maaring wala ngang makakapantay sa pagmamahal na ibinibigay mo sa'kin.

Pero kaya kong higitan iyan, at sa iyo ko naman ibibigay.

[anakpil]

Let's live a life with no expectations, so no disappointments.

mood rn. Come what may.

[anakpil]

Mananatiling bulag ang iyong mga mata sa aking nadarama.

Mananatiling bingi ang iyong tainga sa isinisigaw ng puso na "mahal kita".

Mananatiling kubli ang pag-ibig.

[anakpil]

Walang rason para ibulgar ang mga nakakubli.

[anakpil]

"Hindi buo ang pag-ibig kung hindi ito nasusuklian."

I have to serve the will of my heart. Just take it. Hindi ko kailangan ng sukli. After maubos ng supply, paalam na.
