Sometimes when you read old messages and see old photos, you remember what happened that time how it made you feel. Then you become teary eyed because you miss those days and can't help but compare how different things are now. Those were the days when you were truly happy.

Nothing seems to be going right these days...

Love letter

Nobody talks like this anymore...

Al perderte yo a ti tú y yo hemos perdido:
yo porque tú eras lo que yo más amaba
y tú porque yo era el que te amaba más.
Pero de nosotros dos tú pierdes más que yo:
porque yo podré amar a otras como te amaba a ti
pero a ti no te amarán como te amaba yo.

- Ernesto Cardenal (Nicaraguan Catholic priest and Spanish poet (1925 - ___)

Tagalog translation:

Nang mawala ka sa akin, ikaw at ako’y nawalan:
Ako dahil ikaw ang minahal ko nang lubusan
At ikaw dahil ako ang sa iyo’y lubusang nagmahal.
Ngunit sa dalawa ay ikaw ang higit na nawalan:
Dahil pwede kong mahalin ang iba tulad nang pagmamahal ko sa iyo
Ngunit ika’y ‘di mamahalin tulad nang kung paano kita minahal.
- Translated by Salvador Malig, Jr.


I got an idea from a friend of mine to write a love letter addressed to no one. He said to let the creative juice out and imagine love as I want it to be. That maybe someday I'll find someone to dedicate that letter to. I don't know what to say right now. It seems the heart has a gaping hole that only love passes through but doesn't stay very long.
 
"Sometimes I think you don't mean what you say, but I wonder why you even say it in the first place. It's even so different from what you told me long ago. Maybe you just say it because you're not sure of your own future. Still, your words pierce through like knives that won't budge; and carves a lonely smile on my face that doesn't seem to fade."

Mantra

Stop controlling and let it go. Let the events unfold whatever they may be. Just trust in yourself that you will be alright and keep thinking positive (you suddenly turned into an emotional vampire recently).

If it's meant to happen it will. Enough with the pushing and labels, just enjoy what you think you are now. Keep imagining the good things you want to happen in your life and the whole universe will conspire to make it come true. Believe in the power of your mind.

You've always had this mantra but you forget sometimes:

Let go. Let be. Let God.

Let go. Let be. Let God.



Let go. Let be. Let God.



Let go. Let be. Let God.



Let go. Let be. Let God.



Let go. Let be. Let God.



... just keep telling yourself that and everything will fall right into place.

"When will you love me back?"

"Get a life."

That's what Gary said. He also mentioned I won't get too much intimacy from a laptop and he asked if what I want is to get married to my work.

Well, there you go girl. You want to get married by the age of 26? Little did you know you're already proposing to your job.

Unfortunately my work would not give me a clear answer. But I think this would be quicker and alot more evident in the next few months.

I think people around me are starting to feel sorry for me spending so much time at the office, not going out with friends or not having any date at all. I feel so awful. Work and life is out of balance. *sigh*

What is Marketing?

As a marketing person myself, I find that the following examples are the simple explanations of what we do :) I got this from old forwarded emails. Enjoy!

1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: ' I am very rich. Marry me! '


    - That's Direct Marketing'


2. You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl. One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says: 'He's very rich. 'Marry him.'

- That's Advertising'

3. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get her telephone number.
The next day, you call and say: ' Hi, I'm very rich.'Marry me

- That'sTelemarketing'


4. You're at a party and see gorgeous girl. You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink, you open the door (of the car)for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her ride and then say:'By the way, I'm rich. Will you 'Marry Me?'

- That's Public Relations'


5. You're at a party and see gorgeous girl. She walks up to you and says: 'You are very rich! 'Can you marry Me?'

- That's Brand Recognition'


6. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: 'I am very rich. Marry me!' She gives you a nice hard slap on your face.

- 'That's Customer Feedback'


7. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: 'I am very rich. Marry me!' And she introduces you to her husband.

- 'That's demand and supply gap'


8. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say anything, another person come and tell her: 'I'm rich. Will you marry me?' and she goes with him

- 'That's competition eating into your market share'


9. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say: 'I'm rich, Marry me!' your wife arrives.

- ' That's restriction for entering new markets '

10. You are not at a party and then you realize that there are might be many gorgeous girls in parties all over the neighborhood and the world even! You then climb up to the roof of the house and scream on top of your lungs 'I AM RICH MARRY ME!'

- That's called spam.
