1. If you don’t like the way he kisses you, you won’t like the way he fucks you. Get up and leave. 2. If he won’t go down on you, but expects you to go down on him, laugh. Get up and leave. 3. If you don’t want to do something and he doesn’t respect that, slap him round the face. Get up and leave. 4. If he isn’t okay with the imperfections on your skin, if he says they turn him off, get up and leave. 5. If you don’t want to shave your legs and he thinks that’s disgusting and refuses to touch them, get up and leave. 6. If he doesn’t see your body as a masterpiece, as a complete work of art, get up and leave. 7. If he makes you feel uncomfortable about any part of your body, get up and leave.

I'm one with the Catholic Church in welcoming Pope Francis in the Philippines! May his teachings of love, mercy, humility and compassion resonate with everyone regardless of race, social class, or religious belief.

Though I am not in Manila and could only watch on TV, to see the Vicar of Christ was overwhelming!

I have a great feeling for 2015!

Spent my wonderful 2-week holiday va-cay in Manila with the people I love dearly. That was just so much fun! For the most part, we just stayed in watching, talking, playing, pigging out, laughing, etc etc. We also went out a couple of times to shop, dine and just spent more time together doing anything and everything! I totally missed them.

Anyway back to reality! I'm currently in another city away from home for my new appointment.  But I really don’t mind, because this reality just keeps on molding me to become a better person; career-wise.  If only it didn’t come with so much documentation and people-handling work. But yeah, still looking forward to it!

I just can't wait for more adventures 2015 has to offer. I'm so ready to face and embrace  changes and the learning that goes with it. C'est la vie!

There are days when you just feel lonely even if you know you're loved.

You come up with things like this - Emotional Landmines.

   I cried a lot yesterday. I feel like I am still sad. I keep hitting “emotional landmines”, as a friend recently described them to me. To which she added, ”and usually when we least expect it”. I had to think about that for a while before I understood what she meant that day — emotional landmines. What are those? 

  After much contemplation I realize that what she meant was that it isn’t as easy as just saying “I’m going to move forward now” and everything suddenly turns peachy and life is perfect. Yes, the journey begins there. Just that simply. By recognizing the goal and committing to make a change. But when you get down and dirty with it, the words alone are just not enough. It also takes action. 

  What I realized is that as strongly as I want to make it change, I also, just as quickly and as strongly, get stuck. I go along the new path and from out of nowhere I hit an emotional landmine and get blown to bits all over again. When that happens it can be really paralyzing, very scary, very messy. Sometimes you even have to start all over again, right in the fog, putting all your limbs back on your body.

And kid, you’ve got to love yourself. You’ve got wake up at four in the morning, brew black coffee, and stare at the birds drowning in the darkness of the dawn. You’ve got to sit next to the man at the train station who’s reading your favorite book and start a conversation. You’ve got to come home after a bad day and burn your skin from a shower. Then you’ve got to wash all your sheets until they smell of lemon detergent you bought for four dollars at the local grocery store. You’ve got to stop taking everything so goddam personally. You are not the moon kissing the black sky. You’ve got to compliment someones crooked brows at an art fair and tell them that their eyes remind you of green swimming pools in mid July. You’ve got to stop letting yourself get upset about things that won’t matter in two years. Sleep in on Saturday mornings and wake yourself up early on Sunday. You’ve got to stop worrying about what you’re going to tell her when she finds out. You’ve got to stop over thinking why he stopped caring about you over six months ago. You’ve got to stop asking everyone for their opinions. Fuck it. Love yourself, kiddo. You’ve got to love yourself.

Never good enough

I really don’t know what I’m doing. I constantly seek some type of validation as a functioning adult. I mean, obviously I’m doing something right. It’s just that I never feel “there.” I never feel good enough.

The problem is that I seek this approval from everyone but myself I guess. How do I overcome this hurdle? How do I convince others that I’m not lost in the world when I can’t even convince myself? What would make me change my own mind? I just don’t feel confident in making decisions. I’m so afraid that I’ll regret something or that someone will stop liking me that I overwhelm myself with what ifs.
