Kilig
OK. Let’s get something straight. When I say kilig, I mean:
acoustic music
watching the sky change colors
biking and singing with the breeze
observing birds dance on rooftops
epiphanies in rainy days
elderly couples who walk slowly, holding each other tenderly
fathers & daughters
I honestly apologize for the next string of words, but it needs to come out because I’ll be with little kids later, and I want to give them all the sunshine, the love, and the innocence that I can give them. And I just know that I won’t be able to if I try to domesticate this wild beast in. So here goes:

I’m determined to have a wonderful Christmas this year! I’m so grateful to God for my family who did their best to comfort and console me this year in those months when I was severely heartbroken. It’s amazing how many kinds of relationship you can start appreciating when one kind ends. :)
Yesterday night’s ending was bittersweet. Tomorrow, it will be sweet: parents’ wedding anniversary and Christmas! :-)

Certain choices are difficult to make. But when you do decide to choose them, you will be glad. You’ll appreciate it. And you’ll be thankful to God, and to those involved. For you’ll realize that you have been humble, courageous, faithful, and hopeful. :)
