My Little New York

Reset



So, i woke up and my phone's home button wasn't working. The first thing that i did was pray and say, "Please, Lord not my phone". Did a reset and it's working again. Moral of the story? Never underestimate the power of prayer and you can always restart to make things right. Life has no reset option but if you want to, everyday is a new beginning.

The Shore Less Traveled By

Walks on the beach are like life. You spend so much time struggling to move forward but eventually end up appreciating the same bed of sand that makes it difficult for you to follow your envisioned straight path. Let your feet sink once in a while. Let your legs ache a bit as you move forward. And when it's time, look back and appreciate the footprints that you left in the sand while the wind lovingly chants, "You have come a long way, traveler. It's time to find your way back home." #Photords #introvertmindextrovertheart #LegallyBlunt #Photography #blackandwhitephotography #BlackAndWhite #photooftheday #Poetry #TheStalkerPicsSeries #LegallyBlunt #LegallyGrunt #RealityEverAfter #writersofinstagram #buttonpoetry #listen #findyourvoice #instapoet #shortform #instapoetry

Perk-spective.

Every person has his/her own perspective. Just remember that no matter how you see things, what lies ahead is always something of great beauty. Breathe. Things are already looking up.

The Pain in Expectations

Boracay, May 2013

It starts with a promise - with images of silly games and childish banters that evolve into quiet nights and comfortable silence. It's a sugar-coated trap that initially makes you believe and inevitably leaves you wondering.

What's wrong? Didn't you once say that there is beauty in wondering? That a certain sense of fulfillment springs when, in your solitude, you are able to make the puzzles fit? The mistake is in taking that leap, that hop, that tiny single step from fantasizing to the tragedy that is wishful entitlement.

Don't you remember? There is a fine line between imagination and expectation. The thing with this pain is that it slowly inhabits your heart, with stealth and deception, until it lethally bleeds.

Let Us Not Get Distracted

Maybe we should go on and pass a law on cyber unjust vexation. Oh wait, that's what unfriending, blocking and hiding are for. Do it. Lest you want to be further annoyed. Making a fuss out of the cyber crime law, making a fuss out of how pointless these acts of sharing / liking / commenting / changing of profile picture, and making a fuss out of why people find that these cyber acts are pointless?

Same thing.

These are all demonstrative of why the freedom of expression should be upheld and protected. Aren't we all supposed to be in this together?

Our battle is against the oppressive provisions. Not with/against each other.

Walang Basagan ng Trip

Kung hindi nyo trip ang cyber activism, huwag niyo gawin. Walang pumipilit sa inyo. Siguro nga, sa mata ng ibang perspektibo, napakaliit ng epekto nito kung ikukumpara sa ibang anyo ng aktibismo. Pero ang akin lang, kaya ko wall ito, at kaya ko profile ito ay dahil malaya akong sabihin at gawin ang gusto ko. Kung hindi ko pwedeng gawin dito, saan pa?

Kapareho lang yan ng kalayaan ng kahit sino na i-block o i-hide ang mga posts o tao na sa tingin nila ay nakakapagpapangit ng sarili nilang cyber-mundo.

Ang kalayaan, hindi man totoong hindi limitado, ay kalayaan na marunong rumespeto. Ang pagkumpara sa kung ano ang nagawa mo at nagawa ng ibang tao ay katulad ng pagsasabi na mas mabigat ang problema mo sa problema ng katabi mo.

Kaya nandito ang cyber-espasyo ay para bigyan ng boses ang mga taong hindi kayang makipagsabayan sa buhay na tinatawag mang totoo ay hindi naman masasabing mas totoo sa kung ano ang nakikita, nababasa, at nararamdaman sa nilikhang cyber-kalawakan na ito.

Walang basagan ng trip. Sabi nga ng MYMP, "Hindi lang ikaw, hindi lang ikaw ang nahihirapan."
