I asked the Good Lord one night if the right love with the wrong timing get a second chance and I believe he sent me the answer.

Almost bed time and I have joined my father in watching a replay of the show “Tonight with Arnold Clavio” though I have not watched this episode from before.

It was the episode which guested the couple Archie and Gee. I’m not a fan of celebrities but since Archie was a familiar face from Bubble Gang plus they were funny so I thought I might as well watch it.

While you are busy reading this article, try mo rin makinig sa episode namin:


The couple started telling the gist of how the proposal happened but then Arnold asked them about their past and this is were it got interesting.

They had a two year relationship and broken up for six years and then they got back together; they said that their love was sweeter the second time around and prove that against all odds, they were meant to be.

It’s literally “Kung tayo, tayo talaga” in the flesh and it was so soothing seeing the love in their eyes.

I am taking that as a resounding YES from the Lord which gave me calmness but with the pain still present, I have begun to worry and feel so helpless that I just wanted to immediately fix the situation…

Immediately, I have heard something from my friend who had no clue of the current situation I was in and it reads

“We’re so stressed out these days, because we believe everything needs to happen right now. We forget that everything happens in perfect timing. We always want everything to happen instantly. If we don’t see anything changing on the outside, we start to lose faith in the power to manifest our reality.” -Kim Quintero

Kung hindi nag work as plan, it’s probably not time for it or it is not meant to be lalo na kung you’ve tried so hard to get it and you’ve tried so hard.

Accept, learn and move forward, kahit ‘di ka muna mag move on agad, sapat na iyong bumangon ka na muna kung saan ka bumagsak tapos ngiti ka na din.

Naniniwala din ako sa caption nung profile picture nung kaibigan ko

“My heart is at ease knowing that what is meant for me will never miss me, and that which misses me was never meant for me.” – Imam al-Shafi’i

Pero syempre, fate and destiny is is something but other than that, your efforts also count.

The world works also in favor of those who work hard for the things they want. Paano mo mahahanap ang mga tinadhana sayo kunh hihinto ka nalang sa isang sulok dahil may hindi na nakuha, kailangan pa alam mo din sa mundo that you are ready and capable to accept the things na nakalaan para sayo.

Let’s move forward, make peace with our past and broken pieces para ‘di siya makaka abala in the future.

Love yourself while you’re at it, love yourself the the way you deserve so when this love, this person comes by and destiny knocks, you’ll recognize it na this is it.

As for me…
Right now, I am happy without you but with you, I could be so much happier. I am whole without you but with you, I could be so better and so much more.

This is me giving my love for you in God’s capable hands hoping destiny will give us the chance we deserve in all His perfect time but if it doesn’t happen, my love for you will not have been in vain if it meant bringing us to where we were truly meant to be.

-Giving it to God and putting it to rest- D.
