Once upon a time. I met a guy. We became friends best friends. We hang-out, share jokes and deep-eye-contact-that-could-take-your-breath-away. I know that I am in-love with this guy. But I decided to keep it to myself. Then one day he told me that he loves me. I was dumb-struck. I was scared as hell to accept defeat. Well, more like admit. I am scared because he's my best friend. What if...WHAT IF IT DOESN'T WORK? I've been hurt in the past. I don't want it to happen again. I might lose him. I think it's best if I keep my mouth shut. It's so hard. Whenever I'm with him, I feel like hugging him. Everyday, I think of him...us. What if...

Bet ko na dumating tayo sa isang punto na na-inlove tayo at nasaktan tayo. Minsan mo na ring sinumpa na ayaw mo ng umibig pa. "Tama na, ang sakit eh." o di kaya nasabi mo rin "Ang sakit maging tanga". True, mahirap umibig. True rin na you experience panic and anxiety once you fall in love. When you're in-love you get your fair share of happiness and sadness. Balance yan ngbuhay. Tska dre, shit happens. Totoong buhay na 'to. Hindi ka si Cinderella at wala ka sa Disneyland. Isa itong grand carousel ng realidad.
Like they always say, love is a roller coaster ride. Kelangan mo lang ng kasama sa ride na yun na hahawakan ang kamay mo at di ka hahayaang matakot. Kahit anong phobia mo sa monster ride na yan...andyan siya. Eventually, ma-eenjoy mo rin ang loopsie-loops, ups and downs ng roller coaster life este ride mo.
Don't be a coward. It's okay to take risks. Just know your limits and be responsible. Hindi porket nag-take ka na ng risks eh tanga-mode ka nanaman. May times na magiging tanga ka talaga pero be sure as hell to learn from your mistakes. Maging matalino ka rin. Pumili ka ng nararapat sayo at wag kang makasarili. Tandaan mo ring hindi lang ikaw ang umiibig. Mahirap talagang umibig and it's okay to fall head over heels. Parte na yan ng ating buhay.
Life is short. Don't overthink. Experience is the best teacher and It's damn okay to fall in love.
