Prayers

Remember that girl who bullied you yesterday?
Or maybe that boy who teased awful things about you?
Or those people who have let you down?

What do you do to them? Do you bully them back or let them do what makes them happy, and that's hurting you?

There's this line that says "Don't judge the book by its cover." We all know that it's about judgmental people. But come to think of it, are there people who don't judge? 

I have read, seen, and heard about people's lives. About how cruel people to them are and how they just constantly tear them apart. But then again, we can't escape the fact that people like them exist, there will always be someone who will rain on your parade.

But how did these kind of people exist?

Let's go back to the girl who bullied you. Did you notice her scratches? How bout her bruises? No? How do you think is she treated at home? 
Have you heard someone cry in your school's comfort room lately? THAT WAS HER.

How bout the boy who teased awful things about you? Did you notice how he would scratch his head in every exam? Did you notice that he would only tease you when someone else does? What if he's a loner and he just had to do everything to fit in? What do you think?

Sometimes, we just don't know their stories, that's why sometimes, we have to talk to them. Maybe they can be your friend. I know it sounds hard but there's nothing to lose, right?

Here, I pray for the lonely ones. I pray for the bullied and the bullies, I pray for everyone. I might not know your story but I know you've been through a lot, because I did, too. I pray for the abused and the abusers. I pray for the society. There might be a little chance for the world to change their ways but one small act can always become bigger. How bout apologizing to the ones you have hurt now? Or maybe thank your parents for what they have done for you because without them, you wouldn't be where you are now. Forgive the ones who have hurt you and thank the ones who have told you they will never leave your side, and proved it.

Ruined.

We all have these moments when we tell ourselves that our life's ruined. It might be because of a book, a movie, series, talk shows, or anything that we sank our hearts and feelings into. And it just happened to me...AGAIN. Here I am typing in my blog at 3am because I just paused a series that I am watching, I didn't just pause it, I closed that VLC media player and heaved out a stressed laugh because that series was ruining my life. I know that we all got disappointed from the wrong decisions that our favourite characters make and how impeccable their bad timing is, but maybe that's what's making the story more interesting. What if our life's a movie and people have been watching it? What if they get the same reaction we do when we get depressed, sad, or even happy with whatever the main character does? What if the voices in our head are actually the voices of the people watching over our life story? I have thought about that too, it sounds interesting but it...

Hello College, Goodbye High School

April 4, 2014, the day when we finally graduated. It seems like it was only yesterday when we first stepped into our classroom. Days do go by fast, huh? While our graduation song was playing in the background, almost all of us couldn't sing because we were already crying. Parents and guardians were in front of us and after singing our song, we gave them roses and that's when all of us broke into crying. To be honest, I have seen the most beautiful moment I could have seen in my entire life. Everyone was smiling with tears in their eyes and everyone was hugging one another. Even our teachers were teary-eyed. We all said our thanks and apologized to the ones that we've hurt. Our past teachers came, too. Nothing could have been better than that. Today I woke up and realized that I can never study to our school ever again. I won't see the same faces that I have seen everyday in that school. And that school's name is Conperey. Then I also realized that I won't s...

Being Blind

Most of them say that being blind is hard. You wouldn't know where you are, you wouldn't know what's the color of this and that, you would't know how amazing earth is, you'll see nothing but darkness... But being blind doesn't mean you don't have any chances of living the good life in this world. You have the ears to listen, the nose to smell, the mouth to speak, and the skin to feel, and maybe, just maybe, that could be enough. You can listen to nature surrounding you. The rushing of the river, the chirping of the birds... You can smell what you're cooking and make it a perfect dish because you can smell the bad ones from the good ones... You can speak up your mind and also ask people for assistance because you can't really see them but you know they are there... And you have the skin to feel the wind sweeping on your face, the gentle touch of a person guiding you, the softness and roughness of things, and that's already enoug...
