Unexpected

Life can surprise you sometimes. There are new things in my life now that I never thought I'd write about. Then again... it happened so here goes...

Last week (I think) I said my nth goodbye to Mond who again left for Qatar. I always feel at home with this friend and it is always a joy having him here. Despite the age gap... hehe... we just seem to connect and it's fun spending time with him. Thus, the sadness when he tells me he is about to leave - nanaman. But this time...probably because he has always kept his promise of keeping in touch, I said goodbye to him as if I could just call on him and still get to meet him anytime. Till we meet again my friend... alam ko nandyan ka lang.

On the contrary, tonight I said goodbye to a person I hate. I called him evil at one time in my blogs. And yet, there is a sadness I couldn't explain. Now, I understand how I deprive myself of so much when I do not allow people to enter my life because of my impressions or experiences about them. I now realize that what people do is not what they are. If only to make life richer and relationships sweeter, from now on I promise to not judge people who judge me, not be mad at people who are mad at me, not be disappointed at people who are disappointed with me and to try being nice to people who are not nice to me. I might just get a shot at a friend I would have otherwise shut off my life forever.

I am attending dawn mass now in preparation for Christmas. First time in my 30 years of existence. I hope to complete it ... and so I bid this writing goodbye for now... zzzzzzz.....
