Love is not supposed to feel like work.
Kung every day parang report ka,
parang kailangan magpaliwanag,
parang lagi kang naglalakad sa eggshells...
That’s not love. That’s survival.
Real love breathes life into you.
It makes you lighter, not heavier.
It gives, it doesn’t take.
Naalala ko dati, I thought love was about sacrifice to the point of exhaustion.
Pero nung dumating si Grace sa buhay ko,
doon ko nakita ang difference.
Yung clingy na hindi sakal.
Yung maalaga pero hindi controlling.
Yung presence na hindi nakakulong,
kundi nagpapalaya.
Ngayon ko lang naintindihan,
hindi pala dapat draining ang pagmamahal.
It should be the safest place to rest.
✔ Love checks up on you, not to control, but to care.
✔ Love celebrates you, not just tolerates you.
✔ Love feels like home, not a cage.
And when you finally experience it,
mapapaisip ka na lang…
kaya pala hindi nagtagal yung nauna.
Because real love doesn’t trap you.
It sets you free.
