All Bottled Up...

I'd like to think that I'm Okay, but thanks....Not really...I'm going through a lot these past few months, as a matter of fact, since late last year. But I'm trying to be brave and holding up positively as much as I could...

To those who know me very well, they are aware of most of my personal issues, and my life here at FFF is an open book. I dare bare my soul. What the heck! It's my outlet, and it does make me feel better knowing that I can vent.

A few days more, I'll give up a couple of the most wonderful things that I ever had in my life. Number one on the list is my . He is getting ready to leave home on April 15th, to be independent and live a life of his own. He's my only , and my only "family" here in McAllen, TX. It's an overwhelming mixed emotions for me. I do want to see him learn the ropes and be able to stand on his own two feet without my shield, but at the same time, I still worry. And most of all, I will miss him dearly. Our reunion here in the USA since Dec. 2002 hasn't been that great since he did not grow up with me, but I did my very best to provide him with all the love, comfort, support and guidance that I could give. He has a lot of resentment about the WHY's in our lives. But, I'm sure, in due time, he will understand, and hopefully, will be more appreciative.

I've been out from work since early February due to left shoulder injury that led to surgery. It isn't easy to be home most of the time, feeling bored and feeling low. I've been given constant company by my friends in FFF with their little pictures on this screen. Some of them don't even have a face, but they make me feel better in any way. I am thankful that I'm back to my job on the 13th. It sure is going to help me cope more.

I still have to release a lot of emotions that are all "bottled up" and trapped deep inside me. It's just a matter of days. By then, I truly really hope that I should be okay...

Life on the edge is never easy. Right now, I'm holding on, and holding up fairly....

Ate Elz I know you are a tough woman though you do stumble at times but you always stand up again and face the world with a smile and I truly and sincerely wish you the best!!!You know I also did not grow up with my parents and I also had a lot of resentment but in time when you have to face your own difficulties it´s easier to understand the many reasons...Hold on because many friends surrounds you

We don’t have time left to regret
It will take more than common sense
So stop your wondering take a stand
Theres more to life than just to live

Cus an empty room can be so loud
Its too many tears to drown them out
So hold on,hold on,hold on,hold on

One single smile a helping hand
Its not that hard to be a friend
So don’t give up stand til the end
Theres more to life than just to live

Cus an empty room can be so loud
Its too many tears to drown them out
So hold on,hold on,hold on,hold on

When you love someone
And they break your heart
Don’t give up on love
Keep faith beside
Just hold on,hold on,hold on,hold on

When it falls apart
And your feeling lost
All your hope is gone
Don’t forget to hold on,hold on

my dear Elsa, we cant make life go anti-clock-wise! and we cant pretend to possess what we should not possess! u r ok, I know u r ok! As I said to you somewhere else, happiness should come or start from within us, only then we can enjoy our sorrounding! here, I am not advising, but reminding, the best moments are not those we seek or wait for, but the ones that come when we least expect them! I don't dare to say u r tough, "like other ladies here said" but u r strong, and explored life so well! just remember, u r not alone, and u will never be!

Pretty sis, the cyberworld has its own wonders, and it still amazes me how people who don't see each other and have not known one another other than over this medium can do so much to make a difference in our lives...Thank you too for touching mine...Thank you!

Bro. Sulei..You are very compassionate and it shows in all your posts. That is one rare quality of a man these days, and I'm glad, I was given the chance to meet you and become family member of HVP. Mimi, sure, is so lucky to have you...Thanks, Bro.

Jane, number one, I know that HE is always there with me and for me. Number 2, I get all these strength and energy from people like you who believe in me, and lastly, I always condition myself into believing that I DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE BUT TO SURVIVE. The other options are not feasible, and in so thinking, I truly bounce back...Thank you so much...

it is part of being human to feel down at times...you have been through a lot and survived as a better person...the rest can only bring out the best in you...keep blogging, sometimes it's the best outlet to vent out...

This is ME...I don't need your approval...

hi there elsa...
my day was quite hectic..after driving for my dad to pampanga to go to DFA, a close friend of mine treated me and some other friends to a much delayed welcome back dinner for me...i just got home.


i miss being there...as i can just easily call you via landline, and we can share uplifting words for each other.
remember when i told you, that since i will be going back to here, i want for both of us to feel like we are just a phone call away?
..but even if we are far away from each other, please be assured i am thinking of you always, and wishing you peace of mind and contenment of heart, as you deserve no less than that.


we both can be at our worst - worst looks, worst moods, worst anything, but we will still try to love each other...
good friends dont dissapear to seek shelter when rain starts to pour...they share a loving hug to make each other feel warm.. and keep each other company till the sun shines again..
i love you too my friend...
