I’ve been gone for a while for a lot of reasons and nobody knows my story. I’ve disappointed people along the way and even worse, I disappointed myself. I was silent, I had nowhere to go. I lost people. I realized the world is full of temporary things, even people. I don’t even know if someone will read my story anymore. Everything seems so different. I feel so different. I see people leaving me behind and because of that I learned to appreciate those who stayed. I had that thought of making myself well-known through my stories before, an ambition I thought could make me happy. It’s gone now. . Nothing lasts, not even dreams. Sometimes not even friends. Sometimes not even love but that doesn’t mean it’s not real at all. I think there are times and there are things that are not about making them last forever but instead making them something worthwhile. I know it’s sad when they leave but a new chapter will always come. New people will come. They may not be permanent but they can be worth it. . I know I left people for some reasons and for that I’m sorry. I’ve made promises I couldn’t keep. I feel like I living in my own darkness, the darkness I created myself, pretending I’m fine but really I’m not. I don’t know what my next story is. I don’t even know if I’ll even write one again. But I’ll always be here. Hoping for something to light me up. If you’re reading this, you can leave me, I understand I might not be worth something to you. I won’t even get mad. But I’d be happy if you stay. . ✋🏻✨🤚🏻 . #MindsOfHipster #handmentality #handsinframe #grammerph #freedomthinkers #vscophilippines #fairylights

All your life you've always been afraid. You've always been the one being left behind. You depend too much on people and cling only to their expectations. And the moment they let you down is the moment you lose yourself. You're scared to move on alone, who wouldn't be? . Sometimes you just gotta push through. People will always let you down. They will always break you. But if you decide to leave all those behind, then you'll know there's more worth moving on that staying in. You are limitless so stop letting them decide who you are and what you can do. They can judge you or maybe discourage you. But that's all that they can do. If you won't let them, then they can't touch you. . Don't be scared of people because those who discourage you only know little. Those who choose to go further beyond expectation know better. You are not meant to be confined inside other people's point of view, you are meant to do greater. In the end, you win. That's what matters. . ⛰☁️ . #MindsOfHipster #handmentality #grammerph #curationnation #wheretonext #roamersworld #vscophilippines #phculture (at Mt. Maculot Cuenca, Batangas)

It's when we lose the things we never thought we had that we realize how precious they were. Maybe because we were used to the thought that they will always be there no matter what. And we forgot that they're just like dust that when we hold them loose they start to drip away. . We take for granted those who care all because maybe we are too fed up of the thought that they care and they always will. But for how long? People only stay for as long as they can. No one stays forever but it's sad if we lose them now. . It's sad to think that once you were worth something to someone and now you're only worth a memory. If only we take one moment and think, put ourself in their shoes. Maybe we can see, right now, how precious we are to the people we are about to lose. . 🏜 . #MindsOfHipster #grammerph #freedomthinkers #wheretonext #curationnation #phculture #handmentality #handsinframe (at Dubai, United Arab Emirates)

I know we've through struggles in different ways. We have different stories. They maybe be good or bad and sometimes somehow it seemed the year only passed us by leaving us with empty hearts. It seemed we remember the struggle, the heartaches but is that really our story? . Whatever we've been through is only part of it. And we may feel that we deserve every inch of the struggle but more of that we deserve to create a better story. All the broken ways we've been only lead us to something we deserve. And we deserve the best. . Despite the world being so cruel we should never stop dreaming. We are part of it. And no matter how it puts us down dreams are what raise us up. The year is going to end soon. Another new year will come. It's not new life, it's not new beginnings nor new hope. It's only the continuation of eveything. But we can choose to make it better. . Merry Christmas! ✨🎄✨ . #MindsOfHipster #phculture #grammerph #curationnation #vscophilippines #handmentality

I spent my morning contemplating on myself. On how I've been so far with my life. People have been asking what's behind my story. Or how I've been doing. And honestly I don't know. I guess I'm just so preoccupied with the thought that I'm used to be just with myself. That it's hard to lean on people who aren't willing to do the things you'd do for them. Sometimes I catch myself thinking how it's like to be with someone. Someone who accepts my imperfection. . I've always been open to people who needed someone to share their problems with. I love the thought they trust me. And weird as it seems, sometimes, to be honest, I wonder how it feels like to be them for having someone like me. To have someone I can run to anytime without hesitations. Not that I praise myself for that, it's just that maybe I might never find someone who's willing to do things for me like I'd do for them. Someone like me or better. Weird. . But nevertheless, here I am, as always. Despite of the things I've been through I'm still okay. A lot of things changed, new untold stories but here I am still. Always wondering what's going to happen next. Life just interests me with so much wonders. It's weird to be me. . 😶☕️ . #MindsOfHipster #phculture #grammperph #handmentality #cupsinframe #curationnation #vscophilippines

Most people don't see pass through us. They only see what their eyes are letting them. They see the beauty of photos we share, they see the elegance of life that we let them. But sometimes behind all the photographs is a soul feeling incomplete. People dwell on their impressions, they don't know our hearts. Of what we are going through, of who we really are. . Sometimes photographs are places of comfort for us to hide. Showing them beauty behind the darkness we've been through. Expecting good impressions for a dark reality hiding behind. They judge us without knowing us. And whether it may be good or bad, they don't know our stories. Our photographs are only superficial, a cover of who we really are. . It doesn't matter what we are going through, or what we've been through. It's okay to hide. It's okay to let people see the the good instead of our darkness. But sometimes it consumes us not to be able to express reality. To act the way people want us to despite of how we should in reality to ourselves. Maybe at some point we should think a little, this life is temporary, perhaps a little expression of reality is good. And then it's up for people to accept us or reject us. . 🖐🏻📱 . #MindsOfHipster #handmentality #handsinframe #whitesomnia #viaalto #curationnation #grammerph #vscophilippines #phculture

I didn't greet you to tell you how good the morning is; I greeted you so we can talk. I didn't send you good nights because I went to sleep; I sent you good nights because I can't sleep thinking of you. I didn't make you coffee so you can wake up; I made you one so you can spend time with me. I didn't say hi because I remembered you: I said hi because I thought you forgot me. I didn't annoy you because I'm bored; I annoyed you to get your attention. I didn't ask who is with you because I want to know you're safe; I asked you because I get jealous. I didn't tell I miss you because I do; I told you I missed you hoping you'd say it back. I didn't go away because I had enough; I went away to see if you'd care. I didn't appear for while just because I don't want to; I wanted to know how you were without me. . When time comes you'll see the meaning behind the things that I do, I hope we're not too late. Because I didn't wait for me to move on; I waited for you to feel something. I didn't ask for too much but I can't deny, deep inside, I didn't just ask for nothing. . ☕️♥️ . #MindsOfHipster #handmentality #handsinframe #phculture #whitesomnia #grammerph #curationnation #vscophilippines #cupsinframe #mystoryinwhite #finestessentials (at Nature's Village Resort)
