Never miss an opportunity

“Never miss an opportunity to make others happy,
even if you have to leave them alone in order to do it.”

Now I've finally decided that I'm letting go. If you can do so much better without me by all means go for it. I will not hold anyone back from doing what they need to. I can’t. . .


 "Look at what it means to love someone. 
Love is not jealous or self-seeking. If you really love someone, 
you'll want the best thing for them... 
Even if that means not being with you."

At the end of the day I know what I am doing and what I have done to try to work things out and make people happy. If my efforts of going above and beyond and everything I could in my power to show you how much I love you I care and that I want you happy isn't good enough . . .  Maybe your happiness can be found else where. My efforts were all I had to give and yet it wasn't enough for you.

One sweet day I will make someone just as happy as she make me and she will be satisfied with just me as I will be with her.

All we'd ever need

While looking for some Lady A music videos I found this fan made video and I've had some flashbacks . . . and while reminiscing I've realized something. . .

 "maybe some things aren't meant to last forever".


Boy it's been all this time,
and I can't get you off my mind,
and nobody knows it but me.
I stare at your photograph,
still sleep in the shirt you left,
and nobody knows it but me.
Everyday I wipe my tears away,
so many nights I've prayed for you to say.

I should have been chasing you,
I should have been trying to prove,
that you were all that mattered to me,
I should have said all the things,
that I kept inside of me and maybe,
I could have made you believe,
that what we had was all we'd ever need.

My friends think I'm moving on,
but the truth is I'm not that strong and nobody knows it but me. 
I've kept all the words you said,
in a box underneath my bed,
and nobody knows it but me.

But if you're happy I'll get through somehow,
but the truth is that I've been screaming out.

It was all we'd ever need.

Oh, I thought it was all we'd ever need.

I should have been chasing you,
You should have been trying to prove,
that you were all that mattered to me,
Oh, you should have said all the things,
that I kept inside of me and maybe,
You could have made me believe,
that what we had girl,
Oh, that what we had
What we had

It Was all we'd ever need

From The Bottom Of My Heart


She's always on my mind

From the time I wake up
'Til I close my eyes
She's everywhere I go
She's all I know



Though she's so far away
It just keeps getting stronger every day
And even now she's gone
I'm still holding on



So tell me where do I start
'Cause it's breaking my heart
Don't wanna let her go



Maybe my love will come back some day
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find their way
Only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
'Cause heaven knows



My friends keep telling me
That if you really love her
You've gotta set her free
And if she returns in kind
I'll know she's mine


So tell me where do I start

'Cause it's breaking my heart
Don't wanna let her go



Maybe my love will come back some day
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find their way
Only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
'Cause heaven knows



Why I live in despair
'Cause wide awake or dreaming
I know she's never there
And all these time I act so brave
I'm shaking inside
Why does it hurt me so



Maybe my love will come back some day
Only heaven knows
And maybe our hearts will find their way
Only heaven knows
And all I can do is hope and pray
'Cause heaven knows



Heaven knows



 
I LOVE YOU. I am who I am because of you. You are every reason, every hope and every dream I've ever had,
and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are together is the greatest day of my life. I WILL ALWAYS BE YOURS. 
--==Man Of Steel==--  

My Fatal Flaw

Even the "Man Of Steel" has a weakness

After everything that has transpired within my 24 years of existence, everyday I still discover something new about life or see things differently the way I've seen them before. For this past few months I've been spending more time on reading books, watching movies, and listening to other people's stories and I always make sure that I wont let a day pass without learning something that is worth sharing to others.

I've made this commitment to my self: "I need to get better everyday"

But before I can get started I still need to figure out the weak spots that I have to focus on. And while on the process of identifying my weaknesses, an image of a very important person in my life suddenly popped out, and I said to myself "She is my greatest weakness,I am the Man Of Steel and she is my Kryptonite". Her eyes, her hair, her smile and everything about her, she has this "signature move" that can make me do anything even if it against my will (of course it is only a metaphor =)), but the more I think about her . . . The idea of "her" being my greatest weakness slowly fades away.


As I reminisce the times that I've spent with her, I finally realized that "she" isn't really my weakness, she is my strength!She is my Lois Lane because she made me felt love like no one else could. She is my "Yellow Sun" the source of my powers, because everyday that I have spent with her was full of great memories and happiness, she brought out the best in me! (Now I feel like singing "Coz' you bring out the best in me, like no one else can do, that's why I'm by your side . . .That's why I LOVE YOU.") She made me fly! I would not perish without her but losing her also means losing my powers, The Man Of Steel will become just a mere human being without super powers.


Realizing these things made me think again . . . "If she's not my greatest weakness, then what is my greatest weakness? my fatal flaw?" Then I finally realized . . . It was me, My greatness weakness is myself . . . the Darkside within me. The negative thoughts and emotions that resides within me. I cannot really remove that darkness but I have to deal with it. I have to focus more on the Light within me coz' it can overpower the Darkside. this time I wont let Darkness succumb my whole being . . . The Light within me might have dimmed because of the recent challenges in life that I have faced, but it never died and it never will.


"It may not be perfect but I believe even in the darkest soul
there's always hope,
people want to believe in something greater,
and it may be easier to hate,
BUT IT IS STRONGER TO LOVE."



As of now I feel like I am a superhero in the making, every challenge that I face in life will add up to my strengths as long as I don't allow it to defeat me."what doesn't kill you makes you stronger"
and I know that I can, I really can, and I WILL GET BETTER EVERYDAY!



" There's a shadow inside all of us, 
but that doesn't mean that you need to embrace it. 
YOU decide who you really are"
Clark Kent (Smallville Season10Episode16:Scion) 

 
Everyone wants to be the sun that lights up your life. But I'd rather be your moon,
so I can shine on you during your darkest hour when your sun isn't around.

The Pencil and Eraser . . .

Let me just share this short story that I have received from a friend just a while ago . . .


Pencil: I'm sorry!

Eraser: Sorry for what? You didn't do anything wrong.

Pencil: I'm sorry because you get hurt because of me, whenever I made mistakes you're always there to erase it. But as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller each time.

Eraser: That's true. But I don't really mind. You see, I was made to do this. We were made to work together, I am happy to work with you and stay beside you,even if I know that I am losing a part of myself on the process. and even though one day I know I'll be gone and you'll replace me with a new one.

Sorry For The Stupid Things . . .


I know that I have hurt you so many times, and I have given you pain and heartaches,and there are no excuses for it, I don't know how can I make it up to you, all I can do is say "Sorry for the stupid things I wish I didn't  do but I do. . ." 

If only I would be granted a single wish from heaven I wouldn't wish to turn back time or to bring back all that was lost, I wouldn't want to undo my mistakes because I would only be a coward if I would wish for that, I want to prove to you that I can be man enough to face the challenges that life has given me. The only thing that I would wish for is "A Second Chance".and I will use that second chance to make up for my past mistakes and be better this time, I want to prove that I have learned my lesson the hard way and I wouldn't be committing the same mistakes again. I cannot promise that everything will be perfect, we might cry and go through hard times together because that is life's reality, we have to go through pain, heartache and many other challenges in this journey and it doesn't matter how many times we fall or fail as long as we can always stand up and fight. Just like what I've said to you before . . . " I cannot promise you heaven, all I can promise is I will get better everyday".

As of now there is nothing more to say, I would just want to ask you to listen to this song . . .



Sometimes we wish for the better
When we have it good as it gets
Sometimes the grass isn't greener
soon as we find out, we forget

Sometimes the fool doesn't know he's a fool
Sometimes a dog he don't know he's a dog
Sometimes I do stupid things to you
When I really don't mean it all



Sometimes a man, is gonna be a man
It's not an excuse, it's just how it is
Sometimes the wrong
Don't know that they're wrong
Sometimes the strong, Ain't always so strong
Sometimes a girl, is gonna be a girl
She don't wanna deal with all the drama in your world

God knows I don't mean 
to give it to you
So girl I'm sorry for the stupid things 
I wish I didn't do but I do

Oh so sorry, oh no, oh so sorry


Sometimes I wish I was smarter
Wish I was a bit more like you
Not making stupid decisions made at the last minute
You live to regret when it's through

Well, sometimes the fool doesn't know he's a fool
And sometimes a dog he don't know he's a dog
Sometimes I do stupid things to you
When I really didn't mean it all

Sometimes a man, is gonna be a man
It's not an excuse, it's just how it is
Sometimes the wrong, don't know that they're wrong
Sometimes the strong, can't always be strong
Sometimes a girl, is gonna be a girl
She don't wanna deal with all the drama in your world
God knows I don't mean to give it to you
So girl I'm sorry for the stupid things I wish I didn't do but I do

Sometimes the fool doesn't know he's a fool
Sometimes a dog he don't know he's a dog
Sometimes I do stupid things to you
When I really didn't mean it at all, at all 





Ask me why I keep on loving you when it's clear that you don't feel the same way for me...
 the problem is that as much as I can't force to love me, I can't force myself to stop loving you...

You're Never Alone!



May the angels protect you, trouble neglect you
And heaven accept you when it's time to go home
May you always have plenty, the glass never empty
And know in your belly, you're never alone

May your tears come from laughing, you find friends worth having
As every year passes, they mean more than gold
May you win and stay humble, smile more than grumble
And know when you stumble, you're never alone

Never alone, never alone
I'll be in every beat of your heart when you face the unknown
Wherever you fly this isn't goodbye
My love will follow you, stay with you, baby, you're never alone

Well, I have to be honest as much as I wanted
I'm not gonna promise that cold winds won't blow

So when hard times have found you and your fears surround you
Wrap my love around you, you're never alone

Never alone, never alone
I'll be in every beat of your heart when you face the unknown
Wherever you fly this isn't goodbye
My love will follow you, stay with you, baby, you're never alone

May the angels protect you, trouble neglect you
And heaven accept you when it's time to go home
So when hard times have found you and your fears surround you
Wrap my love around you, you're never alone

Never alone, never alone
I'll be in every beat of your heart when you face the unknown
Wherever you fly, this isn't goodbye
My love will follow you, stay with you, baby, you're never alone
My love will follow you, stay with you, baby, you're never alone







This is my prayer for you: that your love will grow more and more;
that you will have knowledge and understanding with your love;
that you will see the difference between good and bad and
will choose the good; that you will be pure and without wrong
for the coming of Christ; that you will be filled with the good things
produced in your life by Christ to bring glory and praise to God.







"No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other"    Matthew 6:24
