I Invoke Thee....

I have said this before, and I’m gonna say it again, I have the ability to evoke emotions given a certain situation, and when a simple truth is slapped into their faces, the reactions are intriguing. Why does it have to be me, all the time? Is it because of my being forthcoming? Or maybe everyone is having a bad day, and the timing is off? Or maybe we have suffered a lot in our personal lives and we have had enough of it already?

For sure there is suffering everywhere. This has been so since time immemorial. But don’t put a blame on me. Like what has been said, we are who we are, and we become the person that we are partly because of what we have done in the past. The key here is acceptance, we must accept and embrace life and all its letdowns, because the moment we accept it, then we liberate ourselves from anything. It may take a while to accept it, but in the end, when we accommodate it as part of our existence, we can live with it better until it doesn’t feel like it anymore.

What makes it interesting is that we are definitely humans who not only have limits but imperfections as well. Being the person that I am and who I am is something that I got used to. True to say that my friends should get to used to as well, and they must know me by now. The mere fact that we are here for almost a decade, as friends. As much as we wish to deny it, on this level, we just can’t, we have shared so many ups and so many downs that a simple setback couldn’t come between the friendship that has developed with time, no dividing or separating, no rejecting but accepting of our imperfections.

It maybe easy to say I’m sorry, but if the sorry uttered is sweet and true, and if “sorry” will be the only word to ease the pain then we say it, we say it with all our might knowing that the person who heard it appeased. But, let’s make it sure that this doesn’t have to be a recurring excuse…I mean, say sorry all the time. We just have to be careful not to discuss any sensitive issues anymore – not even in a whisper.

I am 32 years old, and everything that I have been thru is a part of my human experience.

I contemplate.

To end, I’d like to leave you with this. The people whom you will come to love in your life will disappoint you; sometimes they will break your heart. But I can assure you that one day you’ll find yourself falling in love again.
