JUST A GLIMPSE...

It has become my habit to look around and appreciate sights and sound a step away. It brings out the contemplative side of my personhood that keeps on searching for anything that can catch attention. And in this world of constant change and countless angles, I could say life is a kaleidoscope of experiences of different people on almost everything that comes along the way.


I invite you to join me in my journal as I feature the colourful panorama of this modern life seen from different perspectives. Allow me to take you to see other sides… even the unexplored dimensions as I further search, dissect, scrutinize, and rediscover anything under the sun. This blog is a feast of the many fascinating things about life and what it has to offer.


Go through the pages and have a peek… enjoy the kaleidoscope, then let your mind speak!

PED MERCADO

ON BEING LONELY



An ex-student / friend of mine shared a quote he got from a movie and it says,

"So I have this one question,

if we can love someone so much, how will we be able to handle it one day when we are separated?

And if being separated is a part of life and you know about separation, is it possible that we can love someone and never be afraid of losing them?

At the same time, I was also wondering, is it possible that we can live our entire life without loving anyone?

That's my loneliness. I have lived with it now for many years.

I know just how bad loneliness feels, I fear it will continue to get worse.."


- from the movie Love of Siam

Sometimes our fears once we don't face them become so huge and powerful that they can make us feel terrified to take actions and risks. And once fears engulf us, the result is loneliness

... because we missed our chance.

... because we already lost without even giving a fight.

... because we felt inferior, lost and incapacitated.

... because we accepted that we are not worthy.
