lost

Exactly twenty-eight days after 2010 has kicked in. I've been drawing a picture of what I like my life to be this year long before the so-called magical display of fireworks. To my dismay, I am always left with this empty blank sheet and an annoyingly blinking cursor. Lately, I have doubled the effort to scribble down these words parading inside my thoughts but my mind works faster than my pen. I miss a lot of things. I miss the feelings, the people and the life that used to make me write. I am no more than an inspiring phrase trapped inside an uninspired body. Where am I going?
escalating stress

Policy, puso, pakiramdam------
Recently, I was tasked to take in escalated calls which I really hate to do since I'm not confident about it. They said it's for my own growth. So one annoying Friday night, "I grew". I had the best advice then...Sa escalation daw, may 3Ps silang sinusunod... Policy, Puso, Pakiramdam. I learned.

"You have the potential, you just need to have the desire.."

So my supervisor is lifting my leg for my own advancement. Good or Bad?

Arghh..I still hate what I do.

Go Away!

Stop shaking my foundation down.
Do not appear in my dreams.
Loiter not on my thoughts.
Hide...when in my reluctance,
I sought.

Walk fast my mind if I stalk.
Pour the rain should the sun draw
your shadow.
Bring autumn,
for feelings come spring may further grow.

Shy me away if beside you I dock.
or simply melt
if I study you like Sherlock.
But if your face persists to pry
Let me stop my heart...
Just let love die.

Heartbreak

I was sitting on my station one jaded day when team mates showed me what they had browsed at. A sudanese girl fainted out of starvation on her way to a feeding center while just a meter away, landed a vulture waiting for the young girl to die so it can eat her. The photo was taken by a photographer Kevin Carter who committed suicide months after.



"The pain of life overrides the joy to the point that joy does not exist"
Kevin Carter, Fragment of his suicide note


It was heartbreaking:(

I scowled because I had no shoes on my feet, until further down the street I saw a man with no feet at all.
