You are worth the wait.


 

Day 14 – You are worth the wait


Hindi ko minadali yung pagdating mo sa buhay ko, and now I understand why. Everything before you felt like preparation — mga lessons, mga paghihintay, mga tahimik na moments na hindi ko alam para saan. Tapos dumating ka, and biglang naging malinaw kung bakit kailangang tumagal ng gano’n. You came at the right time, with a heart that’s gentle but strong, and a presence na kayang magpahinga ng mundo ko kahit magulo lahat. Hindi ka rushed love, ikaw yung love na dahan-dahan pero sigurado.

Sa’yo ko natutunan na may mga bagay na mas nagiging meaningful kapag hinintay. Hindi dahil mahirap makuha, kundi dahil deserve mong dumating nang buo at handa ako. Every version of you — yung pagod, yung masaya, yung tahimik — lahat ‘yon worth it. And if I had to wait all over again just to meet you, I would, walang pag aalinlangan. 


Mahal kita, sa panahong dumating ka at sa lahat ng oras na pinili kang hintayin.

Where the year begins.

Day 1 – Where the Year Begins January 1. A new year always feels like a fresh start and somehow ikaww agad yung gusto kong isama sa buong taon na ‘to, isa ka sa taong gusto kong kasama sa buong taon na 'to. I’m starting this not because I have to, but because I want to, gustong gusto —because you matter to me more than you probably realize. I want this to be a reminder, langgaaa, na I see you and I appreciate you. Kahit ordinaryong araw lang, gusto kong malaman mo na proud ako sayo for showing up and trying your best — although sa birthday mo pa 'to makikita or mababasa pero sasabihin ko pa here na proud ako sayo, lagi't lagi. Mahal kita, sobra.

Through every storm.

Day 3 — Through Every Storm You don’t always open up about what you’re going through. May mga pagkakataon na mas pinipili mo na lang manahimik, kimkimin ang bigat or pinagpapatuloy ang lahat na parang okay ka lang. Kahit pagod ka na, kahit something bothering you, you still choose to move forward. That kind of quiet strength, na the way you endure without needing to talk about it, like sinasabi mon na "hayaan nalang 'yon" that is something I deeply admire about you pero not all the times, kasi minsan yung word na "hayaan mo na" is parang ini-invalidate mo ang feelings ko na dapat is hindi, ang dami mo ng pinagdaanan and hindi dapat hayaan yung iba doon. Kaya I always say sayo na magsabi ikaw saakin if something is bothering you kasi minsan is hinahayaan mo nalang, but I see you trying na magsabi and me is so proud of you because of that.  Nakikita kita, mahal. I see how you keep trying even on the days when no one’s clapping for you, even sa mga times na walang...

How you became my safe place.

Day 4 — How you became my safe place   Hindi ko namalayan kung kailan nangyari pero unti-unti, ikaw na ang pahinga ko. Sa mga araw na magulo ang isip ko at mabigat ang mundo, presence mo pa lang parang nagiging okay at magaan na lahat. Hindi mo kailangang magsabi ng marami kasi yung pakikinig mo, yung tahimik mong pag-intindi, is enough na 'yon for me. With you, I don’t feel the need to pretend or be strong all the time. Pwede akong mapagod, magkamali, maging totoo or minsan maging mahina, dati takot akong magsabi sa iba kasi baka makita nilang mahina ako pero kapag dating sayo, ang gaan lang magsabi at magpakita ng nararamdaman ko kasi tatanggapin mo pa rin ako.  You became my safe place not because you fixed everything, but because you stayed. Sa bawat takot, doubt at pagod ko, nandiyan ka — always patient, and real. Ikaw yung reminder ko na okay lang maging vulnerable, na may taong pipiliin kang mahalin kahit hindi ka okay. And maybe that’s why, sa dami ng pwedeng takbuhan,...
