Happy Holidays


i am confused as to how i should feel
about yet another year ending so soon

time flies;
we are all growing up
at this crazily fast pace which i have yet to get accustomed to
(even after all these years)

true, this year flew by
and some days were a living hell for me
but i sure was blessed
to have the many people in my life
who never fail to turn my day around
saving me, time after time, in ways they don't even realize

and it seems that with age come insights
or maybe because this time round,
i spent most of my time watching from the sideline
so i got a clearer picture of almost everything

sure, there are things i still don't get
and probably never will
but what i sought to know have all been answered
in a miraculous fashion
and i cannot be more thankful for that

here's to a better, more enriching 2012 ;)

lesson learnt / note to self:
  • things happen for a reason
  • mourn over your loss if you must, but don't forget to get back on your feet
  • people disappoint, get the hell over that
  • some things aren't worth fighting for, so know when to let go
  • save yourself the trouble, the truth will unveil itself in time to come, you will see
  • don't be so hard on yourself
  • the people who truly care will love you anyway
  • first impressions aren't always right, the most unexpected person may just surprise you
  • take life one day at a time


p.s. i miss being a child
