I love pasta, i love basketball, i love my dog, i love reading. love love love.
Sa dalas ng pagbanggit ng salitang to, parang wala ng kabuluhan.
Naaalala ko non yung usapan namin ng isang opisyal ko.
3/OJepoy: Alam mo, ginawa kasing alipin ang mga tao non, yung mga Mayans at pinagmina sila ng ginto ng mga aliens para sa spaceship nila na nag-i-intergalactic travel. Umalis na ung mga aliens na un pero up to this day, mahalaga pa rin ang ginto sa tin."
Miko: Hahaha, pathetic ung istorya na yun sir. Kaya mahalaga ang ginto, kasi kokonti lng sya. Scarcity creates value. Tulad ng asin. Dati, makakabili ka ng ginto kapalit ng asin. Dati, ang sahod ng mga roman soldiers ay asin, kaya nga ang salary ay galing sa salitang salerium, na nag-ugat sa salt. Ngayong napadali ng mag-produce ng asin, tinatapon na lang. Kung magkakalat ang ginto sa paligid, mawawalan na to ng halaga.
-------------J. Canton, Conversations with Colleagues
Ngayon, sa sobrang normal na pagsasabi ng "I love you", wala na tong value, wala ng meaning. Yung iba, parang routine na nila. Magtetxt ng "I love you" sa umaga, magtetxt ng "I love you" sa gabi. Pati tanghali, at kahit madaling araw. Minsan, naiisip ko, naka-template na un sa cellphone.
Ang iba naman, ginawa na yatang bisyo o libangan ang pagsasabi nito. They will tell it with anyone they "feel" close to, kahit kakikilala pa lang, may kasama pang "muahh!"
Whenever somebody tells me they love me (believe it or not, may mga minalas nga nagsasabi sa kin, hehehe), I tell them I do not believe. Lalo na ung mga kakikilala ko pa lang.
"You cannot love who you do not truly know,
And you cannot be loved if you're not truly known"
-------------M. Scott Peck, The Road Less Travelled
When I began my venture to uncover, as much as I can, the mysteries of love, isa sa mga nauna kong naging commitment ang i-limit ang pagsasabi ng "i Love". I will not say i love you to a thing, a pet, a hobby, or a stranger. Hindi ako namimigay ng "i love you", for love is a precious gift, that you can't mass produce and give to everybody.

HAHAHAHA!! Exacto! I feel the same way talaga. Hahaha! As usual, nice one Mik!
And eto pa... I agree, one hundred percent.
nakakatawa, pero totoo.
Yeah... actually natawa ako kasi ikaw rin felt the same way I did about this. I dunno, I was beginning to think this was a normal thing nowadays, you know, yung tossing off "I love yous" left and right (oops, did that sound old? HAHA).
the most abused word.. nakakatawa lang kasi most people had the nerve to say "i love you" without sincerity. ano yun? expression? overused phrase? one way of pleasing others? never mind the way how they say it, or the way how they mean it (they don't even mean it often), but this is a one big change in this generation. that's why most people get hurt because they don't even know how to use this "love"..

hey..
based from your recent blogs. may recurring theme ka.
the obvious quotations & the freaky love thing. you so into it nowadays.
why why wwhhHHhHHYYyyyyYYY??!!??!!
hahaha.. XD
true.
i have this one person, all through our 6 years of relationship, that person never said the phrase "i love you". not even sweet nothing.
if I say: "Hey, I miss you, to the max!"
the reply: "Eh, so what naman sa kin?"
if I ask: "Miss mo ko?"
the reply: "Sino ka ba? Bakit kita mamimiss"
But with all that six years, i can bet my ass that person love me. our relationship showed that saying "i love you" is entirely different from "acting lovingly".
hehehe. when i started to formally counsel heartbroken clients (yup, clients talaga, hehehe, di ko naman sila friends eh, nakarating lang sa kanila ung reputation ko, hahahaha), they all ask me to write what i've learned. kaso nga, i can't accomodate writing at that time. ang plano ko ngaun, yung maiisulat ko rito sa blog, iko-compile ko na lang for them. =)
Hay miko...love guru ka ba? Maybe you can help me out...i want to be one of your client... i have this problem about love... at im beginning to become pathetic... pero i don't know... many things still confuse me.. at nga pala... you didn't fail to amuse me with your blog... lahat ng pinopost ay may may katuturan...minsan kahit joke time na ay malaman pa din... you're such a great thinker!!!
what a nice thing to say. thanks, i appreciate the compliment.
client? hhmm, let's see about that. send me a private msg containing your problem. tignan ko po kung may maiitulong ako. =)
agree to this.. actions are more effective than words.. or should i say action speaks louder than words.. haha
I LIKE THIS STATEMENT... IT APPLIES TO ME....
thanks. =) i'm glad you liked it.
i bet magaling kang mag handle ng relationship..
well, my gf and i lasted for 5 years. and i like to think it lasted because i took the lead, hahaha....
i just don't know why all her friends (including mine) always bugs me whenever we're having a problem, or why they named her Saint.
hahaha.
