Doing a quick week-end post. This had been a bit of an emotionally draining week for me. Eeek, pretty uncool to kick off the year, huh?
To start of, I unintentionally did something last week, or rather something happened last week, that may just hurt a friend's feelings if she finds out. Excuse the vagueness, basta yun. I have this talent of screwing things up without realizing it. I think I did it again last week and felt pretty bad about it. Although I could've just kept my mouth and pray she won't find out, I decided otherwise. Last Tuesday, I made it a point that the day will not end without me telling her about it.
Then there's this other thing. Have you ever been in a situation where you know something that has absolutely nothing to do with you, but everything to do with a friend, and you have no idea how to tell it? And you know you have to tell her to help but you just don't know how? I'm telling you it's the ugliest situation ever. I dunno, maybe I'm not yet that mature to handle those "somebody's gotta do it" kinda things. Those damned-if-you-do-damned-if-you-don't things. Or in my opinion, those I-don't-wanna-have-anything-to-effin-do-about-it things. But to help a friend you really just have to muster up the courage and do it. And I did it. After days of thinking it over and stressing about it, I did it.
And you know what, there's no better feeling than telling the truth. There's no better feeling than going home without the heavy heart. Without the long face. Without the messed up mind.
There's no better feeling than being honest to other people, to your friends, and most especially to yourself. :)
And since we're talking about honesty, this week I'm also thankful to have honest people around me. Office mates who would tell me I'm getting fat or that I drank too much, friends who would say it to my face that I'm wrong about something or that the guy making porma is just wrong [-looking] (shout out to Krystel and Mau haha!). Friends whom you could have screaming session with in a coffee shop and be okay about everything afterwards.
But seriously, they say a little white lie won't hurt, but neither would the plain, good ol' truth. So for a better, lighter feeling everyday (sounds like a laxative ad), have that dose of honesty in everything you do. Believe me, it works wonders (sounds very much like a laxative ad, haha!).
