Home alone since Monday. My parents on vacation. Am here in the tribe again. I used to be alone but it seems I can't get used to it. And since it's Holy Week, the people here are out there trying to make money out of their pearls along the beaches of Batangas. Ang tahimik!!
I contend myself doing some sketching, listening to music, and eating during my spare time. My mom left me my favorite food in the ref- milk, cheese,danggit,etc. (talk about my allergies!). So i bought lots of what I like! And for the first time since February, I was able to watch tv via satellite.
I came these things that made me think:
While sleeping in my house, I noticed bees sound that night, and by morning, some of them were flying over my bed. So I asked John Mark to check my walls, since my they are covered with curtains. And he found beehives, about 4 of them and the swarm of bees were busy creating another beehive, on the wall atop my headboard! The other badjaos smoked the bees out of my house and got the beehives. It was my first time to taste honey direct from the honeycomb. The milk and honey taste so good! The milk is actually baby bees on the making! So I decided to let the bees stay in my house, so we could collect more honey. Yeah, the bees stayed.... for 1 day! The next day, they're gone!
Bees are peace loving insects. They don't like to be disturbed while doing their " what they're supposed to do.". Busy but quiet and demands to be left alone so they could produce sweet honey. Best produce in our lives come in times we are alone and in deep thoughts. Most of us don't want to be alone. We like to be always in company and got sad and bored when left alone. We sometimes fail to appreciate the value of aloneness. Aloneness is not negative, it's positive! Sometimes, I do, commit that mistake.
Watching ducks swim on the water... how come this heavey bird float on water and even though they dive beneath, they don't get wet? I remember my grandfather who said to us whenever we take baths, " Maligo na maayos, wag paligong bibi!".
Ducks are incredible birds. Poor in flying but best in swimming! They are so excellent in floating, something that I can't even do! Ha ha ha! Life is like an ocean of varying wave sizes and storms! People should be like ducks, instead of succumbing to life's challenges, they should know how to float! When you float, you don't drown no matter how high the wave be! Life could be easy to deal with if we all know how to "float".
Heartbreak is a painful experience. It's one experience I hate! I symphatize with people who are heartbroken. It's easy to fall in-love but it's so difficult to move on after the failure. My gosh! I made the best coffee that morning when a parent told me her son is brokenhearted and can't move on. Talking to this guy removed the taste and good aroma of my coffee! (am the only one talking, and the guy.. he cries!). Seeing a guy cry move my heart and what else will I say but, "put this in your mind: it's her lost not yours!"! Ahuh!
Falling in love is a choice and so is getting hurt and not moving on. So we could make a choice to move on even in one day! Pain and love is an activity of our hypothalamus, it's a big thing to know that we can dictate our hypothalamus to minimize the pain so we could do something to move on.
"Moving on" is the phrase of the week here!
Why are there penguins in the South pole and not in the North Pole? Pareho lang namang may ice dun?
Make each day a day to smile about.
Be like sunflowers!!!
