Even if you play dumb…
Even if you are vain…
Even if you are stubborn…
Even if it irritates me sometimes to make you brush your teeth…
Even if it drives me nuts to make you cut your nails…
Even if you don’t read books…
Even if you don’t understand motion pictures…
Even if you are talkative…
Even if you behave like a child most of the times…
Because you are witty more than you’ll ever know…
Because I’m learning a lot of things from you as well…
Because I simply love the way you look…
Because you like to be taken care of…
Because I like to take care of you…
Because you are not ashamed of what you do not know…
Because you know how to learn new things…
Because you like pictures and drawings, no dialogues…
Because you want to be heard…
Because I like to hear your thoughts…
Because you bring joy and laughter…
Even if it might sound Greek to you… I’m saying all these
Because these are just some of the thousand reasons why I love you…

I used to think...
01 May 2006
Lately I’ve been learning to unlearn some things for various reasons. I guess I'm already at the mature stage where I wouldn’t think that I’ll be at the losing end. For the longest time, I think I’ve operated in a WIIFM scheme especially on big things that I’ve to put so much time and effort on. Yeah, yeah… call me selfish or childish but that’s how I am.
Guess what, I’m trying to do a recall of the things (so far) that I’ve started to unlearn – in other words, have adjusted to, sacrificed, compromised, gave up. Oh yes, even I couldn’t believe it myself. For the right reasons… for the right person…
I used to think that in relationships, both parties would have to invest equal time with each other (or at least have the equal effort of trying to).
I used to think that you have to know all the things that both of you are doing for each other.
I used to think that you can’t say NO to the one you love.
I used to think that lovers will find it really difficult to be friends too.
I used to think that a self-centered person can be selfless for the one he loves.
I used to think that I cannot fight for the one I love.
I used to think that my dreams and aspirations will be absolute as I reach them – no negotiations applicable.
I used to think for “me, myself and I”, now there’s also “us and we”.
I used to think that I’ll never fall in love again…
