Thank you for introducing this site to me.

Thank you manilastars. I now have a place to go to and de-stress after a hard days work and allowed me to re-establish connections long thought to have been lost.

Same immature too

Dear Papa. Thank you for raising me even if you’re not my biological father. I don’t know if you’d be shocked in knowing that i’m not yours but you certainly made a huge impact in my life. Despite of Mama’s drama overtures and complicit accusations, you’ve decided to leave her and you took me with you. You died 20 years ago. I was on my own, your voice resonated in my head - and it made me through tough times. Little did i learned that secrets were unfolding right before me. I received a card a few years ago that i have to come home and attend a funeral. It was at a big funeral place on Mindanao Avenue where the rich people have theirs. The person who died was an old family friend who i’ve worked for when i was a teen. Remember him, Papa? he told Grandma that i should work during the summer break? i was very keen of having 1200 pesos a month, not bad for a kid who doesn’t know much about Excel but the work ethic is good and learned to value currency and savings. Later on my 18 birthday and on my 1st semester in college - he bought me a present - it was a small expensive watch. I declined the gift and was confused about his intentions and he understood my hesitation. He put the watch in his pocket and then i could hardly remember afterwards. As i stepped out of the car, in front of the grand place. The whole building was well lighted and the smell of burning incense was as rancid as the Pasig river made me dizzy. I got the room number and i entered the door and as I stepped in, all the people who i’ve worked with in my teen years hugged me and shaked my hand. There were strange people who took my hand and made me sit with them. They asked about my flight and i said it was long. How’s my life working for the ‘brewery’ and i said good. The strange people were his 3 sons - all Doctors. First time i’ve seen his boys. ” We’ve decided to return this to you” one of them exclaimed and handed the watch. ” I didn’t know he kept it afterall these years!, it must be 20 years since i’ve seen this!” i gasped and smiled as i held it in my hand. ” We never expect you’d turn down the rolex but Dad always reminded us about that moment you turned it down”. ” we’re actually wondering why you did, Kat..”. “ I was too young to have an extravagant gift.” i replied. ” But did you look at the back of it?”. - No. Then i looked at the back and there were words engraved. My eyes got big and about to swallow a huge lump of spit. Then i read : ’ to my only daughter, I love you always, Dad’.

1. Cry if you must. Shout and curse if you want to. Let it all out... But never invite an alcohol in. It will always be a temporary getaway when you get an alcohol involved. 2. Take a breather. Isolate yourself or hibernate for a while. It will help to clear dark clouds hovering over you. Maybe this is a chance to discover new things you've held yourself back from doing before. It's your road to take now, so enjoy! 3. The trimester of it will always be the hardest part. You're just starting to pick up the pieces and have no idea how or where to start. If you're taking months and years, so be it. Because what's important is you bouncing back being all try to yourself. There are others out there who'd fake their recoveries and these are risky ones. Usually they get themselves involved with a new relationship with another person without having really crossed the other side of the bridge, and they end up hurting that person in the process because there's the stigma of the past. 4. Self preservation. This is one thing I'd always, and always, remind my friends and myself. It's a process, and may take long, but the result is very much rewarding. As you take your time doing this, you also surround yourself with more positive vibes, and begin caring and loving your self all the more. You will even encounter self discoveries, those uncharted regions within you. 5. Don't be afraid. It's your story to write anyway. A. Don't be afraid to take a step on your own. B. Don't be afraid to watch a movie all by yourself C. Don't be afraid to dine by yourself. D. Don't be afraid to travel the world by yourself. And you'll be surprised as to how you'd blossom to another kind of flower. You'll normally exude this beautiful aura that is noticeable. And by then, maybe it's time to take on another chapter...
