Circumstances can be the force you had to contend with to stay alive and it is frustrating. Life here on earth is but a series of random occurrences with a predetermined tragic end. We will all die. We all struggle in many different ways. Others are fortunately fit to make it while others had to struggle more without the assurance of succeeding. You worked so hard and planned incessantly for the uncertain future. You tried to do good things in hopes that a good life awaits, but how can you be so sure? You might have such a great day or a lousy one, yet you might still end up dying any moment. They say life is what we make it. Well good for you if your one of those folks brimming with optimism. You can still manage to see a silver lining despite how bad things are going. But not all of us is gifted with that mindset. Not all of us can be helped by those motivational literature they call self-help. Not all of us have enough mental willpower to shrug off every wave endangering...

Naj Jandy: Hello there! I am a free-spirited person who laughs so much, talks so much, but at times prefers to be alone. Yes, I like to socialize but there's also a part of me that yearns for solitude and cherishes the idea of being with oneself. I think this isn't a peculiar attitude in most people, since there's a part in us that gets drained by people. Well in this blog, you'll read random posts about random topics under the sun. I hope you do enjoy!

What Hello, Love Goodbye taught me

It takes so much love to allow someone to grow even if it means being apart from you. It takes a brave heart to release someone whom you have caged with your future plans. It takes trust to understand that more than being your other half, she is also an individual who has her own dreams to chase. You may think she’s too selfish to refuse the ambitions you have laid out for her, but no she’s doing this not for herself but also for you. She exists not for the sole purpose of finding someone to achieve stability. She exists because she has her own map to follow. She may choose a path that deviates from your expectations but it doesn’t mean she’ll forever wander and reach for a destination far from yours. She wouldn’t want to spend the rest of her life wondering what could’ve happened if she fulfilled her aspirations first. Love nurtures. It doesn’t restrict a person from realizing her potentials. She allowed you to be a part of her life not to complete a missing part of her but ...

To All the Wallflowers

To all the wallflowers: Every name has been mentioned but you. Every face has been familiar but you. Every effort and acts has been recognized and appreciated but you. Everyone has established an impression and a lasting memory but you. You walked the streets but only shadows are loyal enough to be with you. For everything that you do, you have always been the vine in a building’s crevice that people won’t take time to notice or even bother appreciating. You have always been the ear and never the mouth that speaks. You have always been the person other people wouldn’t care to miss. You are just a mere back-up for everything. The person no other people in the world would remember to have marked. Always the rejected and the forgotten. You have all the reason to feel sad. You are entitled to feel vulnerability. You are always welcome to feel the demands of pain. The world has been turning lives of other people for the better yet here you are, existing in this world but treated as ...

To Cupid

The letter below is addressed to Cupid written by the NBSB (no boyfriend since birth) Me in 2018. I hope Cupid took this seriously! 😂😂 February 19, 2018 Dear Cupid, I don’t know what so special in having romantic relationships since I’m an NBSB, but I feel pressured whenever people try to associate my name in bold letters on topics regarding being single. It seemed like a low-key manner of telling me to at least deposit in my staggering bank account on romantic relationships. At times it hits me like it's an implied message which leads me to think that they’re comforting me for not being someone’s girlfriend. It’s not my fault. I’m a woman and I always prioritize conservative “Maria Clara” attitude over love ( charot 😏). I wouldn’t want to be a hypocrite by making the first move. I feel like I would appear desperate and pitifully trying-hard to even try flirting. Isn’t it man’s role to impress a woman? ( and now I'm blaming gender roles 😏) Don’t girls get guys b...
