I felt the loneliness slowly settle in as the plane inched towards the Eternal City.
Unfortunately, Jollibee delivery doesn't go all the way here. A Chickenjoy meal would hit the spot right now.
Mom's made a good point when she said, "Anak, remember... you can come home anytime."
The last words my dad said to me before I left Manila still echo in my head... I can't believe he said that. He usually avoids topics like that. It was shocking... in a good way. Those words will remain a secret... for now. :)
I'm really thankful for all my friends, new and old, who came out to see me while I was in Manila.
I'm especially thankful that I was able to spend a lot of time with my family last month. I also spent Christmas and New Year's with the people I love, complete with a fireworks display that was a first for me. <3
My heart is being tugged in different directions by feelings of sadness, anticipation, hope, missing you, past, present, future, loss, confusion, understanding, epiphanies, apathy, hunger, stress, happiness, love, and more as I look longingly at the computer screen.
If I stare at this map long enough, will it blink? :)
