the unpalatable but natural order of things
sometimes it’s cruel how and when life decides to throw you a curve ball. i’ve been sailing along happily this past months… perhaps the whole past year… or couple of years… fairly happy and content, and aside from that busy week last september, i can’t remember any major hiccups… no dramatic highs, no troughs.
but perhaps it’s against nature’s laws. after all doesn’t the law of entropy dictate that it is but natural for things to dissolve into disorder?
it’s the kind of news i’ve been bracing myself against, and yet when it finally came, i was unprepared. the tears, the desperation, the child in me that longs to wail.
hang on tight, daddy.

[...] as a rule, we don’t start with our christmas decorations here before it hits december, and unlike in the philippines, the tree is usually set and adorned two or three days before christmas. but in light of recent developments, this year will be an exception. i plan to unearth the tinsel and all-that-glitters this weekend and make the flat all christmassy. with the days getting shorter (today it was pitch black by 5 pm), i need the twinkling lights and festive ribbons to chase the shadows away. i might even get a plastic tree.
