TO BE A MAN...

To be a man means a lot
To be a man has different meanings
To be a man is used in different situations
To be a man involves a lot of responsibilities

To be a man requires a lot from a man
To be a man makes a man anxious
To be man is a form of bondage for a man
To be a man gives freedom to a man

To be a man is an excuse for a man
To be a man is an insult to a man
To be a man puts pressure on a man
To be a man is a curse for a man

To be a man a lack of emotions is needed
To be a man a display of emotions is unwanted
To be a man having emotions are unnecessary
To be a man you must be a man

You always have to be a man
But who defines what being a man is?
What makes a man not man enough?
Who created the rule book on how to be a man?
Why do you have to be a man?
Most importantly, what is being a man?

Qudos to the D...

A big shout out, and thank you to the Ds out there, who have what it takes, know how to use it; and have good character to back what they have. Different types of Ds exist, apart from the size, colour, height, age and so on; I group the Ds into three (4) groups, which are: M, R, PD, and the N group. To the M group (aka Messi group), they are naturally gifted, and we thank them very much for that. They are Ds who use what they have very well and are natural at using it to give utmost pleasure or satisfaction. To the R group (aka Ronaldo group), who train very hard and become great at it, thank you very much. Your dedication and consistency are appreciated. To the PD group (Plain Ducks group), who are not naturally good or own as much skillset as the R group, thank you very much for using what you have to help us.  I have met different Ds in my life, some have been good, some bad, thinking about the bad ones is making me angry. To the good ones out there, thank you for be...

I AM SO MUCH MORE...

Do you know what it feels like going through life and not knowing that you are so much more than you know? Well, I just realized it. A few minutes ago, a song triggered all my emotions, because it made me realize that I have been hiding in a shell all my life. It brought to my attention that I am running out of time, that I am perfect, and that I am very insecure. It is crazy that I have been crying for hours because I just realized I have been short-changing myself in everything, be it my school work, grades, relationships, or even within my family. The craziest part is that I did it to myself.  It is even more unbelievable because, despite the thousand cheerleaders that surround me, I was lacking the greatest cheerleader a person could ever need, and that's myself. I have never really been my cheerleader, and it just dawned on me. The level of damage I have done is a lot, and I have to clean my mess before it is too late. This is too much to believe, but I am thankful...

My BAE...

Today , my day was GREAT, I hope yours was great as well . You will NOT believe who made today special. It was no other person than my heartbeat, my boo boo, my darling, my true love, who I never thought I could miss this much. I never really understood the saying, "You never know what you have until it is gone" ; well, now I do understand. I am not really one who gets attached to things or people easily, this is why I am so surprised that I could miss him this much. Thanks for being there when I needed you the most. Apart from family, water (drinking water), hot boys, novels (about Theo, Dante, Alejandro, Alexander, James Mallory, you know the rest) and music, my darling is one of my beloved treasures that can bring a smile to my face anytime anyday. I knew he was in this category, but I never wanted to accept it because he is really not good for me based on some issues. Just the thought of him has made me happy for about a week. Ever since I heard he was...
