Yes, that's what I've been feelin lately, and i LOVE it. I LOVE my family, i LOVE my friends, i LOVE scary movie nights, i LOVE meeting new people, i LOVE new traditions, i LOVE seeing my friends happy, i LOVE reuniting with old friends, i LOVE starting over. I've never thought I'd feel so completely happy with family, friends, school, work, and aha. . . even the love life! ;)
Family.
My mom and I have gotten really close lately, even though we piss each other off every other second of the day, i really trust her, and i even feel comfortable enough to tell her parts of my life and we'd have a conversation about it. My dad's gotten much MUCH better, thank God! He's walking now, and needs limited assistance from me and my mom. I've never felt so close to my family til now, and i love them soooooo very much and i'm just so blessed to have a happy family :)
Friends.
THEY MAKE ME SO INCREDIBLY HAPPY! and i thank them so much for being here for me whenever, wherever. i'm so lucky to have such amazing, incredible, reliable, trustworthy, and not to mention BADASSS friends! I thank my bestfriend kevin the most for ALWAYS being here and for taking great care of me. even though we don't show it to each other, i love him and i'm sp grateful for everything he does! Its also such an amazing feeling reuniting with old friends, one specifically :D She knows who she is, and everyone should KNOW who she is, ahaha. Hmmmm, just the feeling of having such good friends around me make me so completely happy, and for once, NO DRAMA! hahaha, I hope it stays this way, and gets even better! AAAAHHHHHH :D

The Art of Contentment
stole from dinah, who stole from kevin.
WHY HAVEN'T I READ THIS BEFORE? its amazing thoughhh :) it gave me a feeling of empowerment :D
The Art of Contentment. For most of us, being single will be more of a phase than a final destination. This is the best place to practice the art of contentment. Someday, I’m sure most of us will fall in love and get married. But the thing is, love will always be tested.
Someone more handsome, beautiful, more charming, richer, funnier, sweeter will come along. If you have not practiced the art of contentment as a single person, chances are you would be tempted to want that and not cherish your chosen one. Practicing the Art of Contentment as a single person means that you take what life gives you, good or bad.
You’re willing to see it through. It means you don’t walk away every time when things get tough, because it builds in you patience, perseverance, understanding and a hundred different virtues that people in a hurry will never have to cherish.
Being single means you would find how it feels to be alone thus, allowing you to cherish every moment you spend with your chosen one. The art of contentment means you wouldn’t mind if life had to make you wait for so long to find the love of your life, because you know that the waiting would only make the finding the love of your life much sweeter.
Being single is a time of your life when you can get to know yourself better. You can pursue different interest and passions without having to ask another person’s approval. It is a phase when you can keep focus on other things, discover your potentials and talents, and see yourself become more of the person you expect to be.
Allow yourself to surprise you. Stop wasting precious energy trying to figure out why you’re still romantically unattached. It’s all in the mind. Take the time to go see your friends, spend time with your family, do charity work and you will realize that you are not, and never for one moment, was alone.
Try to get to know yourself first before you try to get to know other people. To be truly loved, means to be known and accepted for who you are. How do you expect other people to know you and to love you, when you don’t know who and what you really are? Sometimes the dilemmas we face are not between what is absolutely bad and absolutely good. Sometimes, it’s between what is good and best.
Treat this stage of your life as a phase to evaluate who is good for you and who is best for you. Sometimes, you won’t hear music, or feel magic to know who’s best for you. The heart just knows and it doesn’t need any romantically charged scenario to decide on the matter. Trust in your heart, and trust that time will eventually lead you to, not to the perfect partner, but to the most suitable partner for you. Being single
is a phase of life that we need to be thankful for, because being single means our hearts have yet to choose the best one for us.
Take your time, the world will wait. Being married or being in a relationship doesn’t guarantee that it will make your life happy. It doesn’t guarantee anything at all. Sometimes, it only brings two miserable people together only to make their life even more miserable. Without the right intention, the emotional maturity, financial security and of course, unwavering love, you’re better off unattached.
Living Life. Don’t put your life on hold for Mr. and Mrs. Right, but don’t let it waste away with Mr.or Mrs. Wrong. Life is about things that you do and happen to you everyday. It’s not about the things that could have happened but never did, or things that you think would happen in the future. Live life now. Live it to the fullest and stop beating yourself up, trying to be perfect on a Saturday night date. Allow life to surprise you with it’s most wonderful blessings.

I'll be okay. . .
Why is it that everyday, every hour, every conscious and unconscious moment, YOU'RE still the one i think of. I'm really lost, i don't know where we got to damn lost. Why do things have to be like this. Promises broken and never kept. It still hurts me to see you like this. I know i took you for granted, but i hope you also know that i loved you UNCONDITIONALLY and i poured my heart and soul to you. I just can't stop looking back anymore, it hurts me to think about you. How can i not? But the real question is, how can YOU not. I guess i'll just never find the answer. And again, i think its better this way. . . you know, how we aren't even friends. It's hard not to think about you, but i always find myself doing so. Aaaaahhhh, breakups suck, but this one wasn't even supposed to happen ='/ And thats why its hurting me so bad. . . HMMMM. No, i need to be strong. For my own good, I refuse to think about you anymore, to think that there will be something in the future. I need to move on for myself, and my family and friends. For the people i love and care about, i have to be strong. Especially for you daddy, i wouldn't ever want you to see me in such a wreck. You need me and mommy as your support system. I know things may be extremely difficult for you, but just know that there's always hope and God will always be the one to save us from all this. I believe everything will be great, just please be strong also. I look up to you to protect me from everything, and its so hard to see you like this, weak. Don't be. Pray, pray, pray, and believe that you'll recover from this. I know we've never really been that close, but i'm realizing that every day is a gift, and i need to make every day the best it can be for you. You are my hero, so is mom. I'd do anything for you two, and if that means giving up my weekends to spend time with you both, i'd do it in a second. I love you both so much, and i'm sorry for disobeying you at times, but i'm willing to change. I'm never gonne give up cos this family will always be together. This is just one of the challenges we have to face, but if we overcome this, we can overcome anything that passes by us. I love you both and i will show it more often. Family will always come first.
