Thoughts about my days

I have been occupied with so many things which kept me from updating my life journal ohmybuhay.

Aptly called, my days have lately been OH MY! Yesterday morning I asked myself who has a bigger problem, Pacquiao or I. The answer is obvious. He has just earned an additional billion pesos. He is putting up a brave face for his humiliating loss but his many pockets are intact and overflowing with wads of cash. My wallet is a black 12 year old Ferragamo, with a five american dollar bill as my taong bahay. I always feel sleepy and tired from stress. I fell asleep four times during Elton John’s concert but my money did not multiply. I do not mean to make fun of what happened to Manny Pacquiao because we all love him but I do not mind sleeping for a few minutes as long as I wake up smiling and laughing all the way to the bank.
But then, I do not think I would even wake up after being hit that hard by Juan Miguel Marquez. I would be dead, instantly.

All this talks about Manny Pacquiao fighting Marquez again for the fifth time makes my stomach churn. If I were his mother, I would palo him and put him in a corner. Stay, don’t box anymore. There is such a thing as enough.

A very close friend of mine who’s the only one who knew what has been troubling me (aside from my family) sent me a text message which made me cry:
“Sometimes, life will flip the script & we find ourselves in situations we never thought we would be.
Life will change without our permission. When difficulty comes it can make or break us.
Whatever we are going thru, we can choose to be bitter or get better.
Or take a stand that we will not be defeated. Discouraged for a while maybe, but not defeated”.
