Trauma didn't make me nice, I consciously made me nice because I don't want anyone else to suffer like I did. Trauma didn't make me strong, I made me strong. Don't you dare ever tell me my trauma made me anything but scared, broken, and confused. Don't give credit to the abusers for me being a good person. They didn't make me good, I made myself good.

People like to say how "we just learn through pain" but that's BULLSHIT. The truth is we learn through LOVE and being kind is the best way to evolve.

“The first semester of college is awesome, because nobody knows you. Like in second grade I was sent home from school for humping a teletubby. But, in college, nobody knows that, and you can be whoever you want to be”

Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.

Franz Kafka (via lazyyogi)

You touched me ever so Gently. Ever so Softly. I loved the thought of thoughtlessness. Didn’t you?

“It’s beautiful when you don’t look”

This is a random sketch I did in school. It started off as a crazy out of the blue idea. I began to close my eyes and held the pen on my left hand. I had let my hand glide to the smooth paper and let my intuition take over. It turned out imperfect albeit beautiful, nevertheless: the image that transpired.

If only we did that more often. Acting with our soul not with our eyes. Not making what is only visible the priority but the actual substance of something or someone. If we should’ve appreciated and looked at things like an equally spread out paper, we are probably living in a beautiful place right now. No rights are to be neglected, no human is to be treated differently.

As one could probably conclude, I am a mixture of an innovator, a retreatist, and a rebel. That is how I am able to survive this thing called life. I wouldn’t have to elaborate since just by reading some of my blog/journal entries, they are to be self-explanatory.

AGot is by far my favorite Filipino musical since I have only watched barely enough to say a few. I love how art can trigger all types of feelings out of me. How this art did that and how much I can relate to it is indescribable. It gave the perfect amount of humor while keeping the societal issues dignified.

I am one who likes to see all sides of the story and give a little bit of reasoning on why things had happened. I also do that to properly give my personal judgement on to something. I also like putting myself on other people’s shoes just to try to understand why they do what they do. I tried to make an attempt to put myself in Ferdinand Marcos’ shoes and those who abuse their powers. My mind blew. It hurt like hell. I dug into the deepest depths of my thinking capacity in order to justify what they did. Nothing came out as if I had been kept in a dark cave without a torch in hand. But I knew my difficulty to think of possible justifications for their actions is what kept me human. What happened during the martial law gave me more proofs and reasons on why I sometimes hate my own kind, and how disgusting and evil a person can get.

As a youth and a student in the society, my role is to ensure that I keep myself educated and that I STAY WOKE. And by going to plays like AGot, I did just as that.
