Hindi ko hahayaang mundo ko'y umikot lamang sa ‘yo.
Ang tanging nais ko lamang ay ang makasama,
Sa pagkamit ng pangarap mo,
Sa pagkamit ng pangarap ko.
Sabay nating suungin ang hamon ng buhay.
At kahit tayo man ay magkawalay, basta’t alam nating sa puso’t isipan ng isa’t-isa tayo ay magkasama.
First things first.
It isn’t that to have an honorable relationship with you, I have to understand everything, or tell you everything at once, or that I can know, beforehand, everything I need to tell you.
It means that most of the time I am eager, longing for the possibility of telling you. That these possibilities may seem frightening, but not destructive, to me. That I feel strong enough to hear your tentative and groping words. That we both know we are trying, all the time, to extend the possibilities of truth between us.
The possibility of life between us.
Looking around things is a vertiginous thing to do.
Kaya ‘wag nang magpaikot-ikot pa.
“Love is a form of prejudice.
You love what you need,
you love what makes you feel good,
you love what is convenient.
How can you say you love one person when there are ten thousand people in the world that you would love more if you ever met them?
But you’ll never meet them.
All right, so we do the best we can.
Granted.
But we must still realize
that love is just the result of a chance encounter.
Most people make too much of it.“
—Charles Bukowski
