this old friend

am sitting here in the cold. shivering...

had a sudden urge to reread some old messages. 89 threads or thereabouts of exchanges...and i'm just 3/4 done. it's ironic how time can change so many things in life; and i'm specifically speaking of my emotions, and the things that cross my mind while reading the same piece of message now and then. those heart-wrenching moments are now replaced by mere acknowledgement that it's all history. flashbacks of mostly good memories come flooding back like an old film flashing before my eyes. and i nod back at them like old friends. it was a past that had broken me into pieces once, (i vaguely remember those ugly moments; and am definitely not digging further into the pit of my memory for them) but of course i've grown from it. i wont say i'm thankful but i'm certainly glad for the memories that i'll bring along down this road.

now, being back in a somewhat similar situation, and with a clearer mind at this moment, i'd call it a cliche - sad i am but none the less wiser.

it'll soon be over and then, i'll look back and smile at it like an old friend who dropped by to teach me a lesson.

it must be human nature to be curious.
how else would you know if it was a box of chocolate or a pandora's box if you didn't try to take a peek.

sw shared, and i had to shoutout

"if the world was just going to punish me for my choices, it shouldn't have given me options in the first place"

so true

when i thought it'd be clear skies for a little while longer...

it rains.

it's a beautiful day

today has been partly cloudy with light winds...almost perfect with the sun occasionally peeking from behind the clouds.

i can go to dreamland with a smile on my face.
goodnight :)

iGoogle

i'm blogging from iGoogle for the first time. isn't that amazing? or not.

anyway, just a shoutout for today:
if the magic is gone, cease looking for it from the same place. look elsewhere.

it's been raining alot lately

but the sun will shine soon.
and a rainbow will form in the horizon.
just as there's always a silver lining behind every cloud.
