last night, i laid a cushion outside our room and stayed there for about thirty(30) minutes or so looking at the night sky filled with stars. we usually do this in DLSU, sa ampi. and we get to see a lot of shooting stars. last night i saw one... a red one. it was short but i made my wish. and then i thought about what Mrs. Ang, our LITERA1 prof told us when we read "Dead Stars" by Paz Marquez i think... half of the stars we see at night are already dead. they twinkle or shed light to us because it takes light years for the light to reach our planet. then i thought what it has to do with me and everything that's happening around me at that time...
and then i thought, nothing... i didn't need to be dead to shed light to others, i didn't need to be dead or take up a long time before i can make others smile. i just needed to be me right now... and i know i am going nowhere with this. but the bottom line is, i realized how nice it is to be alive and to be with someone other than myself.
Merry Christmas everyone!!!
and thank you baby for making this a very special Christmas...
