I tried to fit in, trying to blend in with everyone else..

The thing is, it didn’t work out as how I wanted to be.

No matter how much I followed the crowd and did my best to be like the rest..

I was still different. I’m thankful for that.

I was never meant to be just another copy of everyone else.. I am unique in my own ways and I am meant for so much more than that.

I’ve got big dreams, a kind heart and a passionately deep soul that yearns for more than just an ordinary life.

Life’s too short to live unhappy, unfulfilled and empty.

I want to chase my dreams, fight for my future and immerse myself in the beautiful moments.

I’ve spent too long doing things I never should have in ways that weren’t me..

So I’m changing the music, turning it up and setting fire to my life.

I know I’ll still stumble and fall.

I’ll lose my way and get frustrated.

I’m sure I’ll fail as much as I succeed..

But I’ll be doing it my way, by my rules.

I’m not going to ask for permission, approval or acceptance.

I’m making my world what I should have long ago-

Happier, fun and authentic.

I don’t always know where I’m going, but the beauty of the journey isn’t in the destination.

I’ll lift my face to the sunshine, dance in the rain and live in the moments.

So, when you see me out there living my life to the fullest, just smile and join me.

I may be a little weird but I’m always loving, true and real.

In a world full of imitations and trends,

I’ll always be the one thing I love most about myself:

Original and genuine.

It’s up to me to make my choices-

And I’m choosing happiness,

Now and for always.

Uhaw ang Tigang na Lupa- Liwayway A. Arceo

1 Ilang gabi nang ako ang kapiling niya sa higaan. Tila musmos akong dumarama sa init ng kanyang dibdib at nikikinig sa pintig ng kanyang puso. Ngunit, patuloy akong nagtataka sa malalim na paghinga niya, sa kanyang malungkot na pagtitig sa lahat ng bagay, paghikbi... 2 Ilang araw ko nang hindi nadadalaw ang aklatan: ilang araw ko nang hindi nasasalamin ang isang larawang mahal sa akin: bilugang mukha, malapad na noo, hati-sa-kaliawang buhok, singkit na mga mata, hindi katangusang ilong, mga labing duyan ng isang ngiting puspos-kasiyahan...Sa kanya ang aking noo at mga mata. Ang aking hawas na mukha, ilong na kawangki ng tuka ng isang loro, at maninipis na labi, ay kay Ina... 3 Sa Ina ay hindi palakibo: siya ay babaing abilang at sukat ang pangungusap. Hindi niya ako inuutusan. Bihira siyang magalit sa akin at kung nagkakagayon ay maikli ang kanyang pananalita: Lumigkit ka!... At kailangang ‘di ako makita. Kailangang ‘do ko masaksihan ang kikislap na poot sa kanyang mga mata. Ka
