Before I Turn Twenty-two

Twenty-two – It seems haunting to see the digits. I am indeed growing older. There is no stopping now.

22 is such a big deal. I have long been waiting for the year to finally tell my self that I am old. But before I leave the skin of my 21 years behind, let me say what I need to say to the people who have affected my life big time.

1.       The Droppers (Those who broke my heart):  Sorry. If you ask me why, well, you must have already known. I’ve told you enough of what my heart should say. Let me say my evil laugh: Ha-Ha-Ha.
2.       The Dropped (Those whose hearts I have broken unintentionally, to be safe): I have told you enough as well. Please understand.
3.       The Buds (Those bestfriends who taught me the feeling of “living a life”): I will look forward to spending with you an overnight in a cozy resort, all of us go wild, going really gaga about stories about love and life; endless fun, endless youth, endless friendships.
4.       The Publication People: I will go wherever you go – dive on a cliff, check on some really extreme sports, and just like last time, be blown away by the waters in the middle of the city, crying “help”! And later, be saved by our famous, “Bhoy the Mascott”.
5.       The Training Team: You colored my work-life, most times, yellow. You get me going, sweating, smiling, sometimes, annoyed.  All emotions in. Thank you for showing letting me know that indeed, life is too diverse.
6.       My Fam Bam: If given the chance, I would love to bring back time and take the hours I have spent sleeping lazily to be spent with you. I will miss you by the time my plans get fulfilled. No one else compares your love for me.
7.       Myself: A sun so bright shines above you. Appreciate the littlest things the Mighty One gave you, and let the life loose freely. Endless possibility is in store. Yes, it is. Celebrate. Life is in session, but God is in maneuver.

8.      Special Someone: You are always in my thoughts. Thanks for the time we shared. God has plans for us. Plans for something big, or even bigger than what we imagine. I love you.
