So you’re bored with your life?……….
September 1, 2009Many people just don’t know what they have. They go looking for adventure, get themselves from one pickle to another, all the while neglecting what they already have and then “BAM!”. Suddenly, they’re still at that reckless stage and furthermore, they have lost what they did have in the first place.
This friend of mine is very much like me. Can accomplish anything if he sets his mind into it relatively high iq (high average), high EQ as well.
Married to a lawyer, they now have three very intelligent kids. So much so that these kids are making waves in their school. He used to hold down a job as a vp of a chain of restaurants as well. They have a house, cars and things that I still dream of owning till now.
Well, they separated recently. Why? Drugs and women. It has become so bad that he lost his job and got kicked out of the house. Last I heard, his wife, doesn’t even want to speak to him.
I don’t know where he is. He has decided to isolate himself, most probably due to guilt and shame.
Nothing can jar a person’s world more than a relationship gone bad and losing everything in a blink of an eye. I sincerely hope that he will reflect on these events and try to correct all that is happening.
As I have proclaimed in some of my initial entries, I am no saint. There are stuff in me that would make the average person, proabably see me as the devil incarnate. It sucks bigtime, but I do catch myself when I’m about to engage in situations that I would regret later and somehow most of the time, save myself from the guilt trip that comes later.
But as always that wasn’t enough to help me succeed in life. Afterall, a failed marriage isn’t exactly a star that teacher would stamp on my hand.
*********************************
Speaking of losing stuff that are dear to us, I would like to make mention here that a dear friend passed away last week due to dengue. You all might have come across his blog, it is taglish.i.ph. It took me by surprise and really weighed me down the rest of the day.
My heart aches for his beloved Cris and I can only show my sympathy through this post.
Cris, I know it’s pretty hard right now to try to understand this tragedy. All I can give you as a form of advice right now is to keep the faith. Trust that JP is in a better place and that your journey now has begun towards fulfilling your destiny. He has come into your life to influence it and I suppose you wouldn’t be the person who are currently now if not for him. Be strong and ride the waves as they come. Everything will settle down when the time is right.

Didn’t notice it was that long already! LOL
I agree with you Ches. However, a lot of people I guess really are just stubborn. Or maybe we can attribute it to lack of imagination. 
I’m shocked. I don’t know what to say. Wish I could be as articulate as you are in giving comforting words.
RIP deyey.
