One Perfect Love 3: My Amazing Grace COMPLETE

AUTHOR'S NOTE

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank each one of you who has read, commented and voted for this story. (Naks, speech itey! Pagbigyan na ninyo).

To tell you honestly, while I was writing the first part of this trilogy, I had no idea where I was going. I'm a pantser, meaning I write without any plans. I only made plans when I got lost along the way and it happened on the last part of the trilogy. I had no idea how these two could resolve their differences or how I could justify their behavior. All that was unclear in the beginning.

But you know, things that happen in our lives often affect our writing. In my case, that was what happened to me. Because at one point in my life, I was Cherry who fell in love with a certain Lee. I was the one who hoped for a promise to be fulfilled, only to realize in the end that the one who made the promise have forgotten it entirely. Worse, the one who made a promise chose to forget me.

I guess that was where I derived the emotion I put into this story. I guess that is the reason why every heartache and anger felt by Cherry was also real to me as I was writing their story.

I know, somewhere out there, a Cherry exists. Someone who is a victim of bullying. Somewhere out there, a Lee thrives on bullying someone in order to hide his pain. Somewhere out there, people are quick to judge others based on what they see on the outside and choose to neglect all the layers of scars hidden underneath. Somewhere out there, someone is crying for help. Someone out there might feel helpless, hopeless and alone. Somewhere out there, someone's soul is so tainted by darkness that it never yearned to see the Light anymore.

As my readers, it is my challenge to you to stand up for those people who feel inferior. Stand up for those who suffered too much that they already lost the will to fight. Stand up for the victims of abuse. Stand up for what is right.

I never wanted to be famous. I never wanted to be glorified because of the things I write about. But I wanted to be remembered as a writer who inspires others to hope, to dream and to believe that despite all the chaos in this world, something beautiful can still survive. That there is no absolute darkness; there is always Light if we chose to search for it. Sometimes, we can find it within ourselves, hiding beneath the scars and the darkness that tainted our souls but it's there. Living and real.

My dear readers, if you already found the Light, don't keep it to yourself. Share it so everyone will know the true meaning of Love, Joy and Peace.

Much love and blessings to all of you. Once again, thank you.

Spread the Light.
