I saw her today and I saw my favorite puppy.
She has grown of course, and can no longer fit in that little cup, but
she will never be too big to have a place inside my heart. Just like
her mom.
I miss them all, but I have plans. I’ll get back to them someday.
Life is an ongoing construction and I have a lot of work left to do.
There is nothing like the morning sun after a hard day’s work. I walk at my own pace nowadays and have started to notice things I have never noticed before. I remember enjoying long walks alone in random directions through side-streets in the Manila Area. I remember walking around San Juan and the New Manila areas too.
Times changed a few years back as I found myself in a relationship where I lost all the things I took for granted. Now, with my new-found freedom I took my time to visit nostalgia. I went to the arcades and hacked away until my arms could no longer maintain a proper sixteen beat drum roll. I went to the friends I ended up ignoring in favor of the love of my life. (She still is by the way, but I need a lot of work) I ate the things I liked eating. I tried my hand at sculpting too. (epic fail)
Today, I look back at the last two weeks and it felt like it was more appropriate for me to be alone. Although I am lonely, I have never felt more alive. Change might have done me some good.
Life is beautiful.
