s.i.g.n.s

a few months ago, when i was giving a few pieces of advice to my friend, Mhai, a question was brought up about asking for Signs.. which then led me to the question, do i believe in signs?

i guess, in my case, I DO BELIEVE IN SIGNS.

i remember when i asked for one from Him a long time ago.. back when i was still soul-searching.. back when i was devastated over a break-up.. back when i thought i would be an old-maid for life... one day, i asked God for the right person to come to me..

i specifically told Him: God, i know there is someone you have planned for me. can i ask for a favor? if that someone you want me to spend my life with has already been born, can you please give me a sign?

then i hovered over the idea of what kind of sign should i ask for. being a hopeless romantic, i ask for simple things like: i want that man to serenade me with a song over the phone and send me a dozen fruits..

yes, i particulary asked for a fruit since i know most people ask for flowers or yellow birds or butterflies.. in my case, i asked for a fruit.. i never told anyone about this sign.. in fact, i didn't think of anybody in particular who could or would be able to fulfill that wish.. i simply told myself that i just have to open my eyes so i can be ready when the sign appears..

and then it happened.. one time, at the office, i got sick, so my supervisor sent me home so i could take a rest. that same evening, i saw my cellphone blinking with Marc's number.. i didn't have any idea why he was calling.. then he sang me the song "The Reason" by Hoobastank.. i was shocked.. i asked him why he was singing.. he simply answered, "i missed you today".. the next morning, he went to my boarding house and gave me a basket of fruits..

and guess how many fruits were in the basket? 6 oranges and 6 apples!

how could that be? i was simply dumbfounded when i realized that the sign i have asked for what right in front of my eyes.. he left me speechless for a long time.. it was late in the evening when i decided, Marc was the one for me..

and so, almost 5 years later, here we are, still going strong and will soon be celebrating our wedding anniversary..

it may be Fate.. or destiny.. or a sign.. or simply a coincidence.. i beleive that if you're really meant for each other, whatever happens, you will find one another.... yes, i know, sometimes, signs can be deceiving... cause we are the one making those signs.. SIGNS are there to guide us and to give you the finality which way to go.

but in the end, it's your Faith in Him that will put you to the place where you want to be..

my horoscope...

have you ever...

Have you ever wondered which hurts the most?

Saying something and wishing you hadn't?

or-

Saying nothing and wishing you had?

I guess the most important things are the hardest things to say.
Don't be afraid to tell someone you love them.
If you do, they might break your heart... if you don't, you might break theirs.

Have u ever decided not to become a couple because you were so afraid of losing what you already had with that person?

Your heart decides whom it likes and whom it doesn't.
You can't tell your heart what to do.
It does it on its own.... when you least suspect it, or even when you don't want it to.

Have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had, but that other person was too afraid to let you?

Too many of us stay walled up because we are too afraid to care too much...
for fear that the other person does not care as much, or even at all.

Have you ever denied your feelings for someone because your fear of rejection was too hard to handle?

We tell lies when we are afraid...
afraid of what we don't know,
afraid of what others will think,
afraid of what will be found out about us.

But every time we tell a lie, the thing we fear grows stronger. Life is all about risks and it requires you to jump.

Don't be a person who has to look back and wonder what they would have done, or could have had.
