Yes, tahimik lang talaga ako. Hindi dahil wala akong gustong sabihin, kundi dahil marami akong pinagdadaanan na mas pinili kong harapin sa katahimikan. Last year, I experienced the heaviest breakdown of my life. I started a business, full of hope and excitement, only to see it fail. Not long after, I lost my job. And if that wasnโt enough, I was betrayed by someone I trusted the most.
People see me smiling, making jokes, posting stories, and being โokay.โ Pero behind those smiles, there was a silent battle. A battle na hindi madaling labanan 'yung tipong you feel numb, you hear voices but you feel deaf, and you just want to stay still and do nothing. I reached a point where I locked myself in, disconnected, and justโฆ paused. Hindi dahil wala na akong pakialam, but because everything felt too heavy.
But in that silence, I found something deeper. I found someone unseen but felt. Someone na kahit hindi ko siya nakikita, I know He was listening to every whisper of my heart ๐๐ข๐ . He didnโt get tired of hearing my stories. ๐๐ ๐๐ข๐๐งโ๐ญ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐๐ ๐ ๐ฆ๐ ๐ฐ๐ก๐๐ง ๐ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐. He just stayed. And in that quiet place, I found comfort.
That was the turning point.
I realized that ๐ ๐๐จ๐งโ๐ญ ๐ฐ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐๐ฉ๐ซ๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ง๐ฑ๐ข๐๐ญ๐ฒ to define me. I didnโt want them to win. So, little by little, I stepped out. I went outside with my kids. I smiled at strangers. I reconnected with people. I started doing small things again not because I was totally okay, but because I wanted to fight back in a way that would heal me.
Instead of crying endlessly in silence, I used that silence to ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐ ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐. Instead of being bitter about the betrayal, I wanted to let go. Instead of pitying myself for failing, I reminded myself that ๐๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ซ๐๐ฌ ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฌ, not dead ends. And instead of staying in the dark, I chose to open the window and let a little light in, kahit may mga sakit kang nakikita.
To those who are silently fighting, know this ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐๐ซ๐ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ง๐. You may feel like no one sees you, but someone up there hears you. And He never leaves. Your pain has a purpose. ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ฅ๐ ๐ก๐๐ฌ ๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐จ๐ง. And your silence may just be the soil where something beautiful will bloom.
So letโs not just survive ๐ฅ๐๐ญโ๐ฌ ๐ซ๐ข๐ฌ๐.
Not in anger, but in purpose.
Not in bitterness, but in faith.
