I'm ok.
I last my smile again
But I'm ok

Marami na ang malulubak na daan ang nalampasan. Marami rami na rin ang mga labang naipanalo mo nang palihim. Hindi na mabibilang kung ilang baldeng luha ang naubos mo bago ka tuluyang nakalaya sa mga nagiging dagok.

Tapos ngayon ka pa ba susuko?

Ipahinga mo lang muna kung pagod ka na. Katulad kahapon, kapag nakabawi-bawi ka na— sabak ulit sa gyera. Naniniwala akong sa mga oras na ito, sisiw na lang silang lahat para sa'yo.

Ikaw pa ba?

"Be brave enough to be alone"

By alone, I mean only depending on yourself for your happiness and your comfort. I mean dreaming of a future where your goals rely on you, and only you, to achieve them.

By alone, I mean strolling down a beach with the sand between your feet and hugging yourself as the wind brushes your bare arms. I mean taking yourself on a date to your favourite café with a book, a coffee, and yourself for company and watching the sun rise and fall back down again, feeling nothing but comfort in that moment.

By alone, I mean listening to your own thoughts, being your best friend, and cherishing the solitude that you find yourself in. I mean being okay with not having a partner and still feeling loved. I mean being comfortable in the presence of those that do. I mean being happy when those you grew up with fold themselves in the arms of relationships, jobs, children, and new countries while you are still on a journey to find whom you truly are.

Be brave enough to love yourself.
By love, I mean wrapping strength around your wrists as you bunch your hands into tight fists for anyone who dares to treat you badly and letting your heart rest inside your chest rather than carrying it on your sleeve for people who will never see it for what it is worth.

I mean loving yourself enough to walk away, enough to say when you have endured too much, enough to smile at your reflection in the mirror when life feels grim, enough to put yourself first and not let anyone take you for granted.
By love, I mean hugging yourself when you feel empty, pouring all the tenderness that you give to others inside yourself, where it belongs. I mean giving and giving to your heart until you fill your empty bucket with enough love to last you a lifetime. I mean cherishing your soul, comforting yourself, and never letting yourself go astray again.

Be brave enough to become the right person for yourself. Because if you are brave enough to do what is right for your heart, then I promise you, you will never feel lonely when you are alone."
