Discoveries


Imagine this kind of a scenario. There is a group of people that you completely trust with your life. You grew up with them, fellowship with them all of your life, and treated them as the best of your best friends. One of them, is extra special. You have a romantic connection with him and you trusted him completely without hesitation. And then you'll find out that this special person that you loved so dearly betrayed you. Not just once but many times. And his friends, the same group of people that you trusted, tolerated the actions of that special person and even joined him with his activities. All of them appeared to be harmless in front of you but they are totally different people when you turn your back.

Huh, it's such a heavy feeling. Everything sank into me last Friday and I couldn't understand why I was able to fit the puzzle pieces together just last Friday. The news was actually not new to me but still I was surprised with everything that I found out. I felt that after five and a half years of being with that special person, I never really knew him after all. And that, after six years (or maybe more) of treating that group of people as my best friends, they never really thought of me as a friend.

The feeling of betrayal, it's the worst feeling in the world. And I felt really bad last Friday. I felt that I was fooled and I hated myself for being so naive about things. Huh, I couldn't even express the anger and the resentment that I feel inside. Until now, I'm still isn't over the things that I've discovered and sometimes, it makes me want to puke. I don't hate them, but I don’t want to see them anymore.

Before we broke up, I thought we could still save the friendship. But after everything, I don't even know if I can still stand seeing him face to face. Not only that, right now, I have lost all those people I treated as friends, the people that I thought I could depend on. Or maybe, they were never my friends from the very beginning?!

Last Friday was one of the craziest nights ever. I need not elaborate it here but I think you guys know what I mean. Words are not enough to describe how I felt. I wanted to cry but tears just won't fall from my eyes. I wanted to confront him. I wanted to show him how I felt about what he did to me. I wanted to slap him on the face, embarass him, and hurt him, just like what he did to me. I wanted to tell him how much I hate him, but I won't because I don't want to continue this seemingly endless struggle. It is time to put an end to everything.

Until now, I could not understand how a person could just throw away five and a half years of companionship that easily. I could not understand how a person could fool someone he calls "special" for five and a half years. I could not understand how people you call "friends" betray you like this. And I could not understand how all these people who have hurt you can still look you in the eye and tell you that they care for you. They are all big liars!

I am hurting but nobody seems to care. I am bleeding but nobody was able to notice that I am already gasping for breath. I am tired and I want to rest. So I'll rest my case to the One who knows everything. And through Him, I know everything will be okay.

  1. Hi dear! I remembered you telling me about your blog but I wasn't able to view it until now. This post touched my heart. I, too, can relate to the feeling but I think your situation is worse than mine. God has reasons why this happened to you the same way he has reasons why it happened to me. We'll just hope for the best. Keep posting! I'll link your site to mine. Take care!

    Very well put blog. I can feel what you are going thru right now. I hope that you will find some peace within your mind and heart as well as the ability to move on with your life without this so-called friends. Keep on writing, that's how I usually cope with things like this. Praying helps as well. Lift it up to the ONE who knows the answer of all things. God bless you!

A Letter to Elisha Joelle Samarah

My Dearest Elisha, I promised myself that I would write about this day since the very first time I saw your cute tiny face at the Intensive Care Unit in the hospital where I delivered you. I told myself that I would chronicle the events so you would understand how great God is in your life and how you have come to be a miracle in your father and I's lives. However, I cannot tell you everything now for the story of how you came to be is too long for you to understand at the moment and too difficult for me to explain in writing. But, I'm going to try nonetheless, soon, little by little, and hopefully, the chronicles would be complete when you are old enough to comprehend. For now, let me just remember the sweetest yet the most difficult day of my life.  Your father and I did not expect you to come at that point in our lives. I, especially, wanted to achieve a lot of things and did not even think about settling down anytime soon. When I found out that I was pre...

Romans 1 is Genesis 3 Explained

Hello again! This blog became dormant again and now it’s going to have a reboot. I know that the last time this blog had a reboot way back two years ago I promised to write more often. Sorry guys, I wasn’t able to follow through with this promise due to busyness and just simply the distractions of life. This time I’m not going to promise anymore but what I’m going to do for sure is to try to write more often. Though I know, the entries would only come if and only if I cannot fight the urge to write. So here you go, I’m writing again. For those who visited this blog for the very first time, let me tell you that this actually started back when I was still in college. Back then, it was a very personal space and the things that were shared here were very personal things. So, if you try to go through the archive, you might find some things that are quite immature and some thoughts that I may or may not necessarily believe right at this moment. This was the very reason why I decide...

Dead to Sin

I have a confession to make. I sin.  That's hardly a surprise actually. All of us sin. However, the degree upon which we feel the shame and the guilt of sin vary from one person to another. Others feel a guilt so terrible that they condemn themselves while others feel sorry for what they have done but are able to shrug it off at the next moment. Probably for the most of us, we don't even realize that we have sinned.  I have learned nonetheless that there are some sins that you can easily avoid while there are others that make you struggle so hard you almost always want to give up. The sins that can be seen externally most often are the ones that are easy to overcome. But the sins that lurk in your heart -- the ones that other people wouldn't even know that you have (and most often than not you don't even know you have) -- are the ones that would make you think twice about your character. Then, one day, a thing or a person or a circumstance, causes that sin hi...
