Let It Go

"Let it go" 3 words,7 letters, madaling bigkasin, mahirap gawin. 

Paano nga ba ang magpalaya? Wow! Big word. "Magpalaya." 

Paano nga ba palayain ang mga bagay o tao na matagal nang nagpasyang umalis sa buhay natin? Siguro hindi na kailangang palayain, kasi umalis na nga diba? Siguro ang kailangan na lang ay ang pagtanggap. Tanggapin na ang ngayon ay hindi na tulad ng dati. 

Mahirap baguhin ang nakasanayan na. Na para bang mag-uumpisa ka na naman sa simula. Pero hindi naman siguro kailangang magsimula sa umpisa. Ang kailangan lang ay ang magpatuloy. Magpatuloy sa buhay, pero sa puntong ito sa panibagong bersyon mo. Ang bersyon na wala na ang mga bagay na dati ay hawak mo lamang. Ang bersyon na hindi na kasama ang mga tao na inakalang mong habang buhay mong makakasama. 

Sa puntong ito hindi mo na kailangang ipilit na makasama sila dahil sila na mismo ang nagpasyang umalis. Marahil ay wala sa iyo ang pagkukulang. At hindi din nila kasalanan na nagpasya silang iwanan ka. Siguro nasa punto lang kayo ng buhay ninyo na kailangan ninyong mabuhay na wala ang isa't-isa. Para malaman ninyo ang importansya ng bawat isa. At darating kayo sa punto na malalaman niyo na kaya niyo naman palang mabuhay ng hindi kayo magkasama. 

Mahirap, pero kinaya at kakayanin. Kailangang kayanin dahil hindi ninyo kontrolado ang isip ng bawat isa. May kani-kaniya kayong buhay at may kani-kaniya kayong plano. At ang planong iyon ay hindi ninyo kasama ang isa't-isa. Maaaring ikaw ay gusto mong kasama siya, pero hindi ganon ang gusto niya. 

Kaya huwag mo nang ipilit. Bitawan mo na. Tanggapin mo na. Hayaan mo na. Masakit pero iyan ang realidad ng buhay. 


Let it go. Let them go.




au revoir. 😊

Not Every Star Orbits in Pairs

Valentine’s Day is coming, and suddenly, being single feels like a public announcement—like something that needs explaining, fixing, or apologizing for. I don’t really get it. Why is it such a big deal if you’re not in a relationship? Every year, as February gets closer, there’s this invisible pressure in the air. People start asking questions. Some joke about it. Some panic quietly. Others rush into situations they’re not even sure they want—just so they won’t be alone on a specific date on the calendar. And for what? I’ve been single my whole life. That’s not a confession or a complaint—it’s just a fact. Somewhere along the way, I accepted the possibility that this might be how my story goes. No dramatic resistance. No countdown. No desperate waiting. Just acceptance. And strangely enough, that acceptance brought peace. I’m okay not having a Valentine’s date. I’m okay not having one on random Tuesdays, either. But I’ve noticed that for others, being single feels like an emergency. As...

‎Crafts by Bato-Balani

Last Tuesday, February 13, 2024, I officially launched my online small business called Crafts by Bato-Balani. The idea started last year. I have loved creating DIY items ever since. I was making a storage box then, but I couldn't think of how I'd make the cover of the box. I was thinking about how it wouldn't fall off easily. So, I thought of putting a magnet on it. As I was browsing on an e-commerce site, I came across this shop that sells materials for making keychains out of clay and/or resin. Then I asked myself why I hadn't thought of doing that before? I mean, making items out of clay and selling them. When I was a kid, I loved making figures out of clay.  After I finished my storage box, I decided to buy tools that I could use in my clay-making. I bought only the basics: sculpting tools, a rolling pin, and, of course, clay. I started practicing creating shapes. I thought it wouldn't take me long to practice since I'm already familiar with clay. I would sa...

My Happy Playlist

These are the songs that instantly make me happy once I hear them. Can't Fight This Feeling by REO Speedwagon This is one of my all-time favourite songs. Every time I hear it, it instantly makes me happy. And every time I hear it, I always have a last song syndrome. I know this song by heart. I didn't memorise it, but I can sing the whole song without even looking at the lyrics.  It Will Rain by Bruno Mars I know that you don't see this as a "happy song," but every time I hear it, it instantly warms my heart. For some reason, this song brings me joy.  We Are Young Fun ft. Janelle Monáe Hearing this song makes me happy because it brings back memories. Memories from the time when I was at my happiest and, at the same time, lowest point of my life.  Jet Lag Simple Plan ft. Natasha Bedingfield  This makes me happy because of the same reason why I love We Are Young.    My Universe by Coldplay X BTS This makes me happy because every time I hear this son...
