Ika-siyam na Pahina ng Nakaraan:  The right person

August 09, 2022

"The right person will know how to hold your love. The right person will choose you just as deeply as you choose them. You will not have to quiet the way you care, you will never feel like you are too much. You will not have to beg for the love you deserve. One day, you will be met where you are. One day, you will be someone's favorite thing, and you will not be confused — you will not feel like you are fighting for someone who isn't fighting for you. One day, you will understand that it never mattered how tightly you held on to the wrong people, how intensely you tried, because the right people were always going to find you. The right people were always going to stay." 

---A gentle reminder pg.5

Ang ganda ng libro na ito kahit binabasa ko palang ngayon. Sa title palang ng libro alam mo na tungkol saan. 'Isang malumanay na paalala' sa tagalog. 

I agree with that, lalong lalo na 'yung huling sentence. 'The right people were always going to stay.' Iilang tao ang naalala ko, isa na doon ang aking mga magulang at ang iilan kong mga kaibigan. Bakit ako sumangayon sa pangungusap na iyan? Dahil din sa mga binabasa kong mga nobela. Kagaya ni ginoong Juanito Alfonso, naghintay pa nga siya ng napakaraming taon sa tagpuan nila ni Carmella kahit wala itong kasiguraduhan. Alam naman nating lahat na sa realidad, walang masyadong ganoon dahil nababasa lamang natin ito. Fiction. Fictional.'The right person will choose you just as deeply as you choose them.' Ganyan na ganyan si ginoong Juanito, pinili niya si Carmella at pipiliin niya pa rin sa mga susunod na taon.
