EMPTY

once in every person's life he encounters the feeling of "emptiness". a feeling of having less than what you want, deficits of what you expected.

i have experienced a phenomena of such kind. it's like eating my van heuten whole roast almonds with out the nuts, mcfloat with out the sunday, isaw with out the suka and tristan with out isolde. it's easy to explain but it is difficult to understand.

sometimes, do you find yourself wandering trying to decipher what else can make you complete? it is really hard to look for that missing piece of the jigsaw right? i could tell. sometimes i can't complete my puzzle too.

minsan sa buhay mo meron mga pagkakataon na meron kang ginagawa pero mapapatigil ka nalang dahil pakiramdam mo meroong kulang sa iyo, kung hindi man ay may hinahanap ka na bagay na sa iyong palagay ay kukumpleto sa araw mo o kung hindi man ay sa buhay mo na rin.

have you ever tried searching but you do not know what to look for? ironic is'nt it?

marami akong mga nakakausap at kakilalang mga tao na nagsasabing pakiramdam nila ay may kulang pero hindi nila masabi kung ano ang bagay na yun. nakakatawa pero aminin natin na minsan tulad nila tayo, pakiramdam natin hindi kumpleto ang ating pagkatao. pero ano ba talaga ang dahilan?

here's what i have to say...

this may not sound sensible to you but the least you can do is pay attention.

in situations like this we often put the blame to ourselves for feeling incomplete. it's hard to verbalize what we want because we actually don't know. we feel empty. but why do we always have to put the blame on us? is it not possible that the people around us are the main reason for this cold, dark, deafening query? in search for the answers we are too occupied making theories with out the hypotheses.

God made us equally but we are different from each other. He made us different to be able to complement each other. one soul is the drive of another's. we all have roles to play. some just forgets to act. that is what makes us feel empty. some people are just too lazy to fulfill their purpose. they become selfish and self-centered. they are these people who wants to be happy but forgets that other people's happiness might be depending on them.

i am not being judgemental or unfair in any sense but the truth really hurts. we feel complete but is it worth it when some just gets lost? sometimes we have to reflect on what our purpose is. we are all important in this world and with out us some things would be missing. in situations like this our life could seem so perfect and complete but ask yourself, is it wonderful?

like some of you, i still feel the emptiness sometimes. maybe, my soul longs for the warmth of another's embrace. we are all snow whites in some ways. we have our elves who serve as our friends yet as we lay inside the cold glass coffin under the tree, we are subconciously waiting for the kiss that would wake us to a life lived happily ever after.

sometimes we tend to be weird... but who dictates what is normal anyway?

exactly, we just have that "emptiness" phase when u think everything is just..well, strange and you can't make out what it is.

but thank God for friends and family who let us out of that zone, even for just a while. :)

this 'quarter-life' crises that most of us twenty-smething people experience is actually caused by sociological factors. we live in a fast-paced world where consumerism is a way of life. a feeling of emptiness in a world where everyone is just a click of mouse away or even a ring of a phone away is not a good indication of globalization. it's just a matter of re-organizing your life so that you are surrounded by things and people whom you feel can contribute to your well-being.

but hey! anyone right now experiences this emptiness. just a shot or two of vodka will shake you off that feeling. hahahaha!!!

someone told me that "everyone is born with a hole in their hearts. No person can fill that hole, only Him." It worked for me. :)

btw, love your blog.

this happens to me too. not too often, thankfully.:)

don't worry, it will pass. a lof of things that don't make sense now will do eventually. God bless!
