Law 40
Despise the free lunch.
What is offered for free is dangerous - it usually involves either a trick or a hidden obligation.
What has worth is worth paying for.
By paying your own way you stay clear of gratitude, guilt, and deceit.
P.S.
tada yori takai mono wa nai
nothing is more costly than something given free of charge…remember.
Where is the moment when we need it the most?You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost. They tell me your blue skies fade to grey… They tell me your passion’s gone away… And I don’t need no carryin’ on. You stand in the line just to hit a new low. You’re faking a smile with the coffee to go. You tell me your life’s been way off line, You’re falling to pieces everytime …And I don’t need no carryin’ on. Cause you had a bad day. You’re taking one down. You sing a sad song just to turn it around. You say you don’t know. You tell me don’t lie. You work at a smile and you go for a ride. You had a bad day. The camera don’t lie. You’re coming back down and you really don’t mind. You had a bad day. You had a bad day. Well you need a blue sky holiday. The point is they laugh at what you say. And I don’t need no carryin’ on. You had a bad day. You’re taking one down. You sing a sad song just to turn it around. You say you don’t know. You tell me don’t lie. You work at a smile and you go for a ride. You had a bad day. The camera don’t lie You’re coming back down and you really don’t mind You had a bad day. Sometimes the system goes on the blink… And the whole thing turns out wrong. You might not make it back and you know. That you could be well oh that strong … And I’m not wrong. So where is the passion when you need it the most? Oh you and I You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost! Cause you had a bad day You’re taking one down You sing a sad song just to turn it around. You say you don’t know. You tell me don’t lie. You work at a smile and you go for a ride. You had a bad day. You’ve seen what you like And how does it feel for one more time. You had a bad day! You had a bad day! Had a bad day! Had a bad day! Had a bad day! Had a bad day! Had a bad day!
It’s hard to love someone who can never be yours.
Time would give you chances…
Chances to talk…
Chances to be together …
Chances to share…
See how it hurts?
You only have chances.
A good friend of mine recently forwarded this message to me and it’s been haunting me since. Some would probably even say…well it’s always better to have had chances than to have none at all. But does it really have to work and hurt that way? Awwww !Hurt is such a strong word! As I’m writing this down, my head is filled with a lot of “what ifs”, “could’ve beens” and “buts” and my heart is aching for unknown reasons …being the Drama Queen that I am of course!
Sometimes it scares the hell out of me to be really happy for a moment with this person because I know I can never buy back time and when that moment passes …that moment is lost forever. SIGH! After that brief but very happy moment… the tendency is to go back again to the drawing table filled with a lot more “what ifs”, “could’ve beens” and "buts"… then you ask yourself why can’t I spare myself from this agonizing reality and idealism called love nga ba?
I guess its becasue love demands a leap of faith…a big great leap that is!
Hope I would one day be brave and gallant enough to take that leap and more importantly …this person would be more than willing to take it with me. But for now…
SIGH…
I guess those chances would just have to do.
Creep
When you were here before
Couldn’t look you in the eye
You’re just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You’re so very special
But I ‘m a creep
I ‘m a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here
I don’t care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I’m not around
You’re so very special
I wish I was special
But I’m a creep
I’m a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here
She’s running out again
She’s running out
She run, run, run run
Run
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You’re so very special
I wish I was special
But I’m a creep
I’m a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don’t belong here
I don’t belong here.
Peter Pan recently left the building…
Can’t believe it’s been more than a month since we last heard him say his favorite line, smelled his fresh brewed coffee in the morning and (sigh…) gave us the reassurance that things will be just fine.
The first few days after he left were definitely unfathomable. Our champion had to leave for a far more important mission. But wait… what I am about to share is not really about goodbyes…it’s actually about … my Neverland.
When Peter Pan left, we felt that it was suicidal on our end to continue the mission. We were literally the Lost Boys and Girls in the story, but something kept us going… insanity perhaps. Later did I figure that we have just rediscovered Neverland and that it did not cease to be such when Peter Pan left. Time does fly when you’re having fun??! Amidst the nerve-wracking deadlines, the never-ending queries, the persistent seekers for truth and the oh-so-many projects, it was hard to believe we, kids, were actually having loads of fun. This is probably the reason why people in Neverland find difficulty leaving.
But of course, it is but inevitable that each one of us …just like our Peter Pan… will leave. But then again… this is not about goodbyes.
So how did we ever manage to smile and laugh our hearts out despite the villains haunting Neverland? I guess I’ll never know and if I ever do find out, I’d probably be out of Neverland then. So what did I ever learn in Neverland? A lot… friendship and camaraderie definitely top my list. I know now that you’ll never get to love something unless you give it your all; until it has pushed you to the limits and still strangely love it a hundred times more. Admittedly, I cried, I smiled… yeah, cursed once in a while… and laughed over the triumphs and failures I’ve shared with the people I now consider my second family.
Why call it Neverland? Hmmm … I guess it’s where simple dreams turn to realities… where uncomplicated joys are within reach and where fun is truly never ending.
recently crossed paths with this beawwwtifullll person… ever met a person who kept you smilin all day?
I Can’t Make You Love Me
Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices
inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close,
don’t patronize
Don’t patronize me
Cause I can’t make you love me
if you don’t
You can’t make your heart feel
something it won’t
Here in the dark
in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And I’ll feel the power
but you won’t
No, you won’t
Cause I can’t make you love me
if you don’t
I’ll close my eyes
then I won’t see
the love you don’t feel
when you’re holding me
Morning will come
and I’ll do what’s right
just give me till then
to give up this fight
and I will give up this fight
Cause I can’t make you love me
if you don’t
You can’t make your heart feel
something it won’t
Here in the dark
in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And I’ll feel the power
but you won’t
No, you won’t
Cause I can’t make you love me
if you don’t
just wanted to share with you guys a nice song…
o walang pait yan ha!
