“Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue, a wonderful living side by side can grow, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky.”
— Rainer Maria Rilke (via theyoungpoet)

"Third Party"
| BOY 1: |
Pare, ang boring naman ng buhay mo. Walang ka-thrill thrill. Tingnan mo ko, pa-party party lang. At alam mo yung pinaka-swak sa lahat ng mga party na napuntahan ko? Ang third-party. Kapag wala si syota, andyan si third party.
|
| BOY 2: |
Ah ganun ba. Hindi naman boring lovelife ko. Kasi may third party din sa relationship namin. At mas mahal siya ng Girlfriend ko.
|
| BOY 1: |
Oh pumapayag kang ganun? Eh sino naman itong third party niyo?
|
| BOY 2: |
Si God. |

“You can kiss your family and friends good-bye and put miles between you, but at the same time you carry them with you in your heart, your mind, your stomach, because you do not just live in a world but a world lives in you.”

“We are all masters of our own destiny. We can so easily make the same mistakes over and over. We can so easliy flee from everything that we desire and which life so generously places before us.
Alternately, we can surrender ourselves to Divine Providence, take God’s hand, and fight for our dreams, believing that they always arrive at the right moment.”
— Brida by Paulo Coelho (via laceofpearls)

“The moment you get tied up in thinking about how to manage a community, you can no longer lead from within that community. To really do this right, you simply must love the platform, love the community, and wish to inspire both to greatness.”

“But there is suffering in life, and there are defeats. No one can avoid them. But it’s better to lose some of the battles in the struggles for your dreams than to be defeated without ever knowing what you’re fighting for.”
