I remembered…
I remembered I wrote about my feelings… my thoughts… my
dreams and I remembered I why amidst the chaos of my world I found peace. Writing was therapy. Writing was solace.
Writing was passion. The last entry on
my blog was years and years ago and I’ve forgotten how I used to put an entry
everyday. So why did I lose it? Same reason as I lost my way a few months back.
I got complacent. I got so wrapped up
about so many things that I neglected the one thing that made me sane. And so, I write once more to regain my
sanity.
Ever since the popularity of Facebook and Twitter, where
everyone seem to now write snippets of their lives on a daily, even hourly
basis, we’ve lost the essence of writing from our hearts. I, for one, am guilty
but that’s going to change. From now on I will make an effort to write more….
about life and love (and everything else in between).
To Jay,
Here are a few reasons why I remembered why I love you so
much.
I love you because I do not fear tomorrow. I love you because
each day that I know you love me too, I feel blessed. I love you because the fear of not knowing
doesn’t bother me. And I’ve said it a
thousand times in the span of almost 3 years but it has never diminished its
meaning. I love you because you are good
to my family, my friends and me. I love you because most of the people I
introduce you to tend to love you more seeing that you have a very good soul
and a very kind heart. You are patient,
understanding and grounded. You care
about more people than yourself. But you never fail to love yourself deeply
too. You share even what little you have
to others even to our dog. You are
disciplined and responsible. You never forget the importance of family. You give me hope when I thought it has
forsaken me. You give me strength when I have none to give. I love you because the room seems brighter
every time you walk in. I love you
because you are true. I love you because
you are forgiving. You know when to say sorry and mean it. You know exactly the
right time to hold my hand and when to let go. You never hit nor curse out of
anger. We have never had a major fight that lasted for day or a night. We never
slept angry at each other. You always want me to hug you right before you fall
asleep. And though you snore like a boar
and kick me like a horse in bed, I always fall on my deepest sleep when you’re
beside me. I could go on and on and bore you. But most of all I love you because
you make me want to be a better person. Always.
Forever grateful,
Your Noel
