a teddy bear with a rose

the teddy bear feels it is put together
everything is put together
wants everything of itself and its surroundings to be put together
everything should be put together

because if not it gets ruined

it only wants to give roses to everyone
but sometimes it only hurts and stresses them
so, it doesn’t know what to do
sometimes it feels objectified

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


like a mouse, it likes cheese,
when its scared it wants to hide inside a mouse house

when it is in extreme pain and overwhelmed with unnecessary thoughts and painful memories, its head explodes and its eyes bleed
and it is totally clueless of the intensities
unless someone would tell it

the teddy bear feels it is put together
everything is put together
everything must be put together
wants everything of itself and its surroundings to be put together
everything should be put together

because if not it gets ruined

but no such thing as perfect and put together in this world
unless the second coming of Messiah, when it gets to Heaven

the teddy bear feels comforted with this food:

Psalm 34: 18
“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted And saves those who are crushed in spirit.”

even if it’s bleeding it is confident that its pain is going to be used for His glory
its pain is going to be lifted up only by Jesus Christ, its First Love
its faith is not on the pain but in Him
only His Word keep its sanity intact

sometimes it likes to hum along with its Ultimate Creator sitting on the clouds with
one of their jamming trips by rivermaya

And though the world would
Never understand
This unlikely union
And why it still stands
Someday we will be set free.

Pray and believe
When the light disappears
And when this world’s insincere
You’ll be safe here
When nobody hears you scream
I’ll scream with you
You’ll be safe here

Save your eyes
From your tears
When everything’s unclear
You’ll be safe here
From the sheer weight
Of your doubts and fears
Wounded heart


Put your hands (teddy bear) in my heart
You’ll be safe here

what do you eat when you need comfort?
what song do you listen to when you are broken?
to who do you turn to when it’s painful?
