To my friends

It's quite sad to realize that you can't keeep the friends you want to keep forever. I can't help but assume that they move away because either I did something wrong or I didn't become the good friend that they want me to be.

Or maybe everything just isn't meant to be.

To my closest friends, I'm sorry kung marami akong pagkukulang...

dear colby,

i'm confused. this was written just around the time i called you up to drop by at meng's house.

see, here's the thing (and please, you know i'm not trying to push you when you're down. i think this is what a REAL friend would say), maybe it's that you don't allow your friends to be FRIENDS to you. i've known you for 11 years. you've always been there for me. but somehow, i feel like i have never been there for you. or, sige, barely. it's not that i don't want to, or don't have time to. come on, you know better than that. i think it's that you somehow build so tall a wall that we, your friends, are unable to break.

for the record, i think anyone willing to lose you as a friend is a complete idiot. he or she doesn't know what he/she's letting go of. so, yes, maybe it just wasn't meant to be (and he or is is a complete idiot).

for whatever it's worth, i have always been waiting for you to let me be THERE for you. forget the qc-makati distance. maybe (or at least i'm hoping) that's one thing that's keeping you from contacting me whenever you need to. but i hope you've already seen how far the distances i've traveled to be with a friend who needs me.

so, let me. you know my numbers. you know where i live, damnit. one word. i'll go to you.

Plee and Kerol,

i love you two! i got teary-eyed when i read your comments.

I guess I just got a little emotional there because I can't follow you guys to meng's house that night. I then realized that I have been turning down a lot of your offers, say for coffee, drinks, etc etc, because of the timing and sometimes my physical condition (getting sick a lot lately). Unlike before na isang invite pa lang, I'm there in a flash. I felt a little guilty. You know naman, kerol, yung mga "tampuhan" na nangyari diba?

and yeah, kerol you're right. even i can't break that "wall" i built for myself. it has always been a problem that i can't work out.

i love you two! thanks so much for understanding. it's so so comforting to know that you two are just there. thanks so much for everything! *hugs*
