philosophy of life
Today was a SUPER hectic day. I had a long exam in Japan then followed by my Philosophical Anthropology class where we submitted a project and then a report due for majors. To make it short, I haven't slept and my cough is starting again. What a semester, I got sick thrice.
However, the highlight of the day is not the STRESS I have been through but the realization I had during my Philosophical Anthropology exam. It was one of the few moments that I really got to relate the discussion to my everyday life. The funny thing is that everything happened just in time. In our discussion, our teacher emphasized the need for acceptance, forgiveness and moving on. She said that "as humans we should be humble enough to forgive the people who have done us bad" because it is through humility that we are able to move on and go one with our lives. My teacher also emphasized that if you have forgiven the person who has hurt you, and yet he doesn't respond back, at least you have done your part. No regrets should be felt. As a matter of fact, you should be able to move on. Those words said by our teacher really struck me. With the problems I am presently going through with a friend, it was just so applicable that it got stuck to my head.
It's been 3 weeks since the last time we talked. Honestly speaking, I don't know when is the right time to actually talk to him. All I know for now is that I miss him terribly. I just hope that he was able to forgive me for what I have done wrong. I know and have accepted the fact that I did something wrong and I am sorry. "Sana lang maforgive mo ako someday..." Seriously speaking, I was not mad or angry at all just hurt. Nevertheless, this is not the time to blame anyone. All I want now is you. I miss our conversations, kulitan, bonding moments and your PRESENCE. Seeing you even just for a second makes me smile because you have your ways of making me laugh. Sobrang kilala mo na kasi ako eh.
Hay. I can't wait for the day that we'll talk things over and fix all our differences. I SO MISS YOU! Never did a day pass that I didn't think how you were doing. Sana kahit na I can't listen to your problems right now, I am hoping and praying that you're doing fine because all I want from the start is for you to be HAPPY.
