Thoughts Before Bedtime

The year is halfway through. I have been up high and down low. I have loved and lost, several times over - and one almost got me.

And this makes me wonder.

Why do I even bother believing in happily ever after when everything else ends before that? Why do I even attempt to make things work? Don't I have enough of that in the office? Why do I even believe in fairy tales? I am already a fairy ergo my stories are really my fairy tales, right?

Because, I guess, that's just who I am. 

I am, however, astonished at how persistent (and stubborn) the romantic Tristan can be. He still believes that no matter how many heartaches come his way; no matter what body part presents itself next; no matter how long or how short... the relationship is, there's still this one person in this world who will be there for him in sickness and in health, for richer and for poorer, in good and in bad, forever and always.

But they haven't met yet.

So for now, he is holding on to whatever is left of the hopeless romantic Tristan - the fraction of him who continues to hold on to the possibility of happily ever after, of love against all boundaries, of fairy tales, of princes, of unicorns and rainbows, of his own happy ending. 

He just wishes his prince shows himself soon.

In the meantime, he chooses to shamelessly bask in the glory of his success. And we all know what they say about people who are unlucky in love... they get richer by the minute. 

Enough said.

For some reasons, we still believe in happy endings despite the things we've gone through. Maybe our knight in shining armor is still on his way and we'll meet them in the later time. Maybe, this isn't the right time yet. Soon, maybe so soon, so keep your last string of hopes stay and remain intact.

We loved and took risk and remember that there is no assurance that in that road, it will only be a paved way. There will be a bumpy ride along the way.

Let ourselves love again, heartaches are inevitable and we may not perfect the art of letting go, but that gives more spice to our lives. :) *hugs*

I wish so unlucky in love so I could get richer. Or why not both, di ba? Hehehe =)

You still believe in fairy tales because there's still hope in your heart in finding true love, that's why. He is just out there. =)

Magbusy-busyhan ka muna jan. Di mo namamalayan anjan na pala hinihintay mo ng matagal na panahon. (Shet ang drama ko!)

I love this :)

I think we should believe in this more than we can just hope and believe that it will work on it's own.
