Leaving yesterday behind


Baby and me, May 2002


For so many months this was my site, my spot... my voice was heard right here...
my pitiful cries, my helpless pleas...

and now I'm leaving.

All the memories I've left behind, I'm leaving it all to you.

This is my lasting gift for you... my love.

Every moment that I spent with you, I'm gonna cherish it forever.

You have become a part of me, What I am now, What I've become, the things I've learned some of it I owe to you.

I want to thank you for your love, and I would forever be grateful for the things we shared.

Our love, each little piece of our time together, I'll hold it close to my heart.

I wish you well, My Baby!

I'm moving on, I'm happy now.

And I wish you'll find your happiness too.

I must admit I feel a little sad leaving this spot, this spot that has been my home in the internet universe...

but I'm just moving on, I'm moving on to a new site... new address...

I'm hoping you'll still follow me there, for all you wonderful people who made me one of their daily reads back when I was the blog addict who writes almost everyday, I hope I'll see your name on my tagboard.

LEAVING YESTERDAY BEHIND
Keno


Since you left me, I never really tried
To put my life to where it should belong
And I've always let the past gone by
I'm realizing that it could be wrong

But now I fin'lly knew
I had to let it go
To make way for a brighter tomorrow

So now I'm leavin' yesterday behind
And fin'lly I've made up my mind
So let the mem'ries stay away
And think about today
I'm leavin' yesterday behind
'Cause now I'll try to live my life once more
The way I did before

Since I know that I never will forget
The memories that made my yesterday
I will try not to let it interfere
The choices I will make along the way


'Cause I'm not livin' in a world of fantasy
I'm here now in the world of reality


So now I'm leavin' yesterday behind
And fin'lly I've made up my mind
So let the mem'ries stay away
And think about today
I'm leavin' yesterday behind
'Cause now I'll try to live my life once more
The way I did before

So now I'm leavin' yesterday behind
And fin'lly I've made up my mind
So let the mem'ries stay away
And think about today
I'm leavin' yesterday behind
'Cause now I'll try to live my life once more
Just the way I did before

Usapang Kalye 3


One afternoon, after we played basketball and we were enjoying RC Cola...


[Makoy] Bwisit talaga yang bata na yan.
[Jhe] Sino?[Makoy] Yan si Mico
[Mokong] Bakit naman?
[Makoy] Napakabastos e, namamakyu! (meaning, the kid was giving him the finger)
[Mokong] e talaga lang bastusin ka siguro, bakit naman kame hinde pina-fuck you-han nyan
[Makoy] Batukan ko kaya?
[Jhe] Gago ka ba? E kung magsumbong yan kay Mang Dante?!?(Mang Dante is Mico's father, a retired AFP soldier)
[Mokong] Dating sundalo yun, baka kala mo, me baril pa yun
[Makoy] E di sasabihin ko " namamakyu yung anak mo e, e kung ikaw kaya Fuck you-han ko, di mo ako babatukan? "
[Mokong] e kung sagutin ka, "Hinde, kse babarilin kita!"
[Makoy] sasabihin ko " e di hinde ko kayo papakyuhan..."


I dont know about you, but I laughed with that exchange of wit, if you may call it wit or just plain humor. But seriously, I wondered how much fear we have for our lives at gunpoint. Why in the world would we humans think about creating something that would destroy life. I don't buy the idea of self preservation, I think its more of being able to control others, of having the power or dominance over another. We live in a world where everybody wants to be king.

I think this world needs to get rid of all things that are meant to destroy and not to preserve... Nukes, guns, weapons of mass destruction and everything that was invented that life itself is against of... Just like Makoy who fears nothing except a gun being pointed to his face. We all need to feel safe with others no matter how big their fingers are.
