Hoping

Two months since I still hold it dear in my heart.

I could not entertain the thought that you were gone from my life. It has been five wonderful years. I could not even believe that this would happen. Again and again, I told myself that it was all my fault. And I admit that. I had been too much.

Now, here I am regretting all the things that transpired. I was thinking what would we be had we still have each other. You could imagine the disappointment creeping inside of me. It feels as though every fiber of my body throbs with pain, as if every vein knows about the misery.

I am going through a most difficult phase of my life. I am not prepared for this.

After taking my TOEFL IPT, we talked. You said that you realized that what we had was all wrong. There was no point arguing with you about that. I respect your decision as I always will. Again I was not prepared for that. Suddenly you had a complete change of heart. Whew!...what could I say? Left to myself, I could not gather the strength to even utter a word neither to think of anything meaningful to say.

There you were after five years telling me about that realization. I admire you for that. But it occurred to me that it seems easy for you. Why? I thought it unfair. I was having difficulty dealing with it and yet there you were having the time of your life without me.

And I am left with my misery. Friends would tease me being the only one feeling this way and you were feeling otherwise. Ahhh, that sometimes life could be really unfair is itself miserable.

Don't worry I am fine. Time will get me through this. I have to cope with it.

Cope? How? That I do not know. All I know is to wait.

That you would be here.

There are so many things about life that we need to know. So many things to take notice of, so many things to explore and discover. Ahh, there is just so much around. All we need is to take a look and be part of it. Life is amazing. There may be moments of dread, of misery, of difficulties. Yet, undeniably, there are moments to be happy about, to be grateful, to treasure. I am a product of that balance. And with it I look at my life as something unbelievably amazing. These pages will tell you why. Enter my world. And the world is a place where we can discover what life really is. Welcome.

Moment

Stupid! That was how my mathematics teacher called me once during my senior year in high school. I was in front of the class, on the board, having answered incorrectly a math problem he said was easy. Stunned and stupefied, I could not remember how long have I stood there. I thought my legs kept me from moving, when so many eyes were upon me, I was enveloped with embarrassment and numbness. After the class, I declined to have my lunch, afraid that my classmates would poke fun at me. And yes they did, behind me (which i would learn later). That was the turning point of my life with mathematics. I really could not blame my teacher. Mathematics was something I detest then, and it was my waterloo. But that unfortunate incident, it dawned upon me that I better put myself together and redeem myself. Not to prove to my teacher that I am what he thinks I am, I embarked on a journey. And this I did with mathematics as company. Years later, I earned my degree in mathematics. When it came to my t...
