Honestly, ilang araw na din akong
nag-iisip at kumukuha ng buwelo para sumulat ng Valentine note for this year. I
got preoccupied with a lot of things until I got pressured kasi ang lapit na ng
Valentine’s Day pero wala pa din akong naiisip. Until one day, out of the blue,
naghanap ako ng panulat at susulatan at nagsimula na namang magtae ang ballpen
ko. Sa mga makakabasa nito, uunahan ko na kayo. Kung hindi niyo na gusto ang
inyong nababasa pwede namang tumigil, pero kung matiyaga ka gaya ko at gaya niya,
you might find something else at the end.
Let me just start with the things I highlighted from my last year’s post. From
my previous post, Valentimes Day, I mentioned on how people go gaga over the
sight of their suitors, special someone, crush, iniirog o sinisinta when they
are being given with the ever famous, heart-shaped Ferrero Rocher. Hindi ko
alam kung anong napakaspecial at nakakakilig with that high-end golden wrapped
sweets until I received one last December 28, 2011. In my 26 years of
existence, that was the first time I received that kind of chocolate. And I can
attest that there is really something which is beyond words can explain. Pero
kung tutuusin, isa lang naman yung tsokolate na gaya din ng ibang tsokolate.
Nasa kanya-kanyang style na lang yun kung paano ibibigay (in my case it was
very surprising at sa tuwing naaalala ko yun I can’t help but smile the way I
smiled when I received it) at kung sino ang nagbigay. Happiness undefined. Kaya
sa taong nagbigay sa akin ng heart-shaped Ferrero Rocher chocolate nun,
salamat! Sa uulitin at sa muli kong pagbabalik.
Natatandaan ko din at the last part of my note bago ako nagpakaadik mode on
John Llyod’s line sa movieng My Amnesia Girl, I wished na sana sa next
Valentine’s Day (this year yun, 2012) ay may pagbabago naman. It sure did
happen after 12 long months. This time, this is it. My heart is not alone and
at the same time not lonely during the Happy Hearts Day. Thank you Lord!
Actually nagsimula ang Valentine’s ko nang mas maaga. Although hindi ko pa
masabi noon na yun na yung start ng Valentine’s Day ko, ang alam ko nung araw
na yun kami nagsimula. October 23, 2011 quoting the private message, “Add
kita…from Calamba din ako… :)”, hanggang sa naging consistent, constant ang
communication (3 C’s) namin. Online kulitan, pick-up-an (pick-up lines),
kamustahan at day countdowns until we decided to meet when I came back from my
work place in another country. After that night (December 21, 2011) we both
called destiny, when he chose to ride that jeepney to go to our meeting place
(nagkaroon kasi ng misunderstanding about the location) where I am waiting,
everything started to make sense. I thank God for that wonderful moment kahit
na nung una medyo alangan pa ako. After that, surprises started to come overflowingly.
Inaraw-araw niya ako. The person who made my smiles a lot better, who never
failed to do new things for me every waking day. The person who accepted and
embraced me without doubt even if I cannot manage my insecurities. The person
who patiently awaits for my return.
Hindi man kita nakasama nung Araw ng mga Puso, sana nagustuhan mo yung simpleng
surprise ko sa iyo. Lagi mong tatandaan at lagi mong iisipin na mahal na mahal
kita at ikaw lang ang nag-iisa dito sa puso ko even if we are 1726.4 miles
apart. Darating din yung time na we will celebrate special days together. I
just hope na sana as each day passes by, we let our love to each other grow and
be stronger than the challenges and temptations that we are going to face. I know
that it will not be long and we will be together again and do things we both
love doing. Sa ngayon, kailangan muna nating magtiis at lampasan ang challenge
na ito para sa huli, we could say that pareho tayong naging survivor. Salamat
sa lahat.
Adik Mode:
Love is about acceptance and contentment. Yes, that person may not be ideal nor
the one you dreamed about. But if you accept who that person is and is contented
with what that person can offer, then you found something...the seed of a good
relationship. And the key to a successful relationship is to treat it
like a school test. You mark the mistakes but in the end, it's the correct
answers that count.
