This is about quotes I have made on my own. There are times I became suddenly poetic, or a deep thinker. Then I suddenly can think of a quote to describe the feeling or experience.
Hope you may instill some learning and motivate yourself to be an optimistic person.

Into Her
"Love is not always about staying. But to let go even if you are no longer the happiness of that person. Love is not about gender. It's about two hearts beating as one" Written by Syne_Sync Dati, akala ko madali lang ang lahat sa pag-ibig. You can fall in love easily, with just a stare, a smile, even a heartbeat. Sabi ng iba, may choice ka naman daw. And remembering how things happened between you and me, I just......fell. Hindi naman pala sa kahit may choice ka, you wont fall eventually. Because I did. And once and for all, ikaw lang ang minahal ko ng ganito. But how could you leave me? Gayung pinaglaban naman kita! And now you will come back into my life like nothing happened? Because all you could say you are still into me? Dapat pa ba akong sumugal? O ibaon na lang sa limot ang lahat ng kahapon natin na pilit kong binabalikan...
She Who Was A He (Hacienda Series #1)
Bawat kirot ay may katumbas na paghihiganti. Yes, every pain demands a payback. That's the first thing I learned when I loved him. Not consciously, not right away-but slowly, in pieces. He taught me how to love. His love was wildfire-reckless, consuming, beautiful in the way it ruined everything. I thought I was lucky to have it. I thought he saw something in me. Maybe he did. Maybe he saw the parts that were already breaking. He taught me how to bend the rules, how to silence the voice in my head that said "this isn't right." With him, right and wrong blurred until they didn't matter. Until all that mattered was staying close enough not to lose him, but distant enough not to drown. And then came pain. He taught me pain in a thousand unspoken ways. In words that stung more than silence. In apologies that came too late. In touches that lingered with regret. And pain... And pain. Again and again No fairy tale. No forever. It was never about soulmates. It was just... a story. A complicated, messy, painful story. But still, I gambled. I bet my heart on something that didn't deserve it. And in the end, that so-called love? It destroyed me. It didn't just break me-it broke everything I cared about. Everyone I loved. It burned through every soft thing I had left inside me. Because that love... Was disastrous. Behind the illusion of love hid everything I was afraid of: pain, betrayal, lies, manipulation. A heartbreak wrapped in promises. A knife dressed like a kiss. But here's what no one tells you: after heartbreak comes something sharper. Stronger. Revenge. And revenge-it's not sweet. It's not cold. It's best served hot. The kind of heat that doesn't ask for closure. It takes it. I, who was a he, now turned into a she. I will serve pain out of pain. Not to mirror the cruelty, but to remind the world: You don't get to hurt someone like me and walk away unburned.Complete
Class of Elites: Curse of the Past
LANGUAGES USED: Filipino and English ------ The faces in my childhood memories were fuzzy, in fact, I couldn't remember much of how everything went when I was younger. Except, how my mother looked at me with loathe and was constantly unloving. Growing up, I held onto my dad's words, 'you're special' or so I thought. Ever since I remembered, there have been people trying to kill me. Why? Not only was I hated, but others even want me dead! My life only changed when I met strange people coming from a world I only knew existed in my imagination. History was retold. Lies were unveiled. In the end, my blood was heavier than I expected.

"You may not want to be in my head. You might find someone other than myself that you won't be able to forget. It'll haunt you like a nightmare you can't tell. " "Silly. What's in that tough demeanor, ate Cray?" tumawa lang si Ember at kumapit ulit sa braso ko. "I like you. That's enough right?" Napailing na lang ako sa inaasal nito. If she'll learn our history, she'll then understand. Pinalis ko yung kamay nitong nakakapit na naman sa braso ko. "Compose yourself, Ember. I don't like you. You're just like a sister to me. Someone I had to protect with my life." I caught the way those words cut through her. It's visible in the same set of lifeless coal eyes that I am most familiar with. "Bakit?" I stared at her blankly. "Atleast tell me what you don't like about me." "That's exactly why it hurts the way it hurts." Napangiti ako ng mapait. "You have too many questions, too many words, in your head. But those will be left unsaid. Like me, you have to suffer through the intricacy of feeling too much every single day of your life. It hurts like hell." "Damn you. I like you." "You like me for what?" "You. You're not like everyone else. You're so sure of yourself. You're clever. You're self-made. You're everything. Everyone likes you. So you should be mine." I laughed at how shallow those things meant for her. Someone who can't even meet me in the depths of my shattered soul. "Thanks. But those are all my disorder." As i was about to turn my back, she whispered, "I actually feel sorry for you. You still don't know what it was that you even had. And yet still choose to lose. But one day, you'll see me for who I really am. And you're going to hate yourself for turning me down." No, Ember. You're wrong. I know you. You don't know me. Our past will surely haunt us. For you, I'll just be a girl known by everyone. But in fact, known by no one. It's terrible isn't it? The way we throw people away. ****Complete

[THEN] Malay Natin: Siguro Ngayon
There are some things that aren't worth keeping. Nastia Kahlila Quijano has been convincing herself that walking away was the right thing she did. Even if it's already been three long years ever since she left. But with every passing second and every in-between of those years, she couldn't seem to getaway with the feelings still lingering in her system. She was haunted by the ideas of him, what might have been, and their memories together. Each day, each night; it was a choice she didn't want to regret. She was determined to move forward. But the biggest relapse struck her unexpectedly. All of her effort and hard work went down the drain. She couldn't seem to pull herself back from the memories reeling her in. From the phantom lurking in the form of her next door neighbor seemingly pulling her back to his arms. Maybe she should run away. Far enough where they wouldn't meet ever again. Far from his reach. Maybe she should treat him indifferently until he finally gives up. But Nika couldn't seem to handle the thought of him walking away and ending up with someone else. She couldn't have that either. Maybe, it was time for her to let things happen like clockwork. Maybe fighting it was futile. Maybe the right thing to do was run back to him. In his arms wide open. A place in the world that's only meant for her. Maybe, this time, they were meant to be. Book cover by: goldenaraw (on twitter)Complete
Cecindei: Zeita Frumusetii
[ MPREG ] [ Trans X Straight ] Love is often blamed for the worst human decisions. But love is never the first sin. Obsession is. Vanna enters a world where cruelty is forgiven as long as it is beautiful. Where power wears a flawless smile, and violence is dismissed as indulgence. She has seen what obsession does. How it bruises, humiliates, and breaks. She has watched it crawl into her sister's life and leave her hollowed out. And she has learned the most dangerous truth of all: monsters are protected when they are desired. Refusing to remain a witness to suffering, Vanna chooses something far more dangerous than justice: entry. Her decision draws her into the orbit of the Valos, a closed, elite circle where influence is inherited, power disguises itself as elegance, and turning affection into leverage and devotion into control. To survive among them is to learn their language. Favors instead of kindness. Obsession instead of love. Silence instead of mercy. As she moves among them, tension sharpens into attraction, and abhorrence into fascination. Every glance becomes a negotiation. Every confrontation peels away the illusions she has lived by, forcing her to confront what she truly is capable of becoming. Desire coils where hatred once lived, and the line between manipulation and intimacy dissolves. With each secret revealed, Vanna is forced to confront a truth she never anticipated: the Valos do not merely test her morals-they awaken something feral, powerful, and intoxicating within her. What begins as a mission rooted in protection and vengeance slowly transforms into something far more unsettling. Self-revelation. Vanna is no longer certain whether she is there to destroy the world that harmed her sister, or to claim its power as her own. Because in a society built on obsession, domination, and privilege, the most dangerous woman is not the one who loves too deeply. But the one who learns how to be desired without losing herself.

[PAUNAWA: ang kwentong ito may maselang tema. this story is a bit matured so please keep an open mind... di ko sya ginawa to feed perverted minds but to let others know that there are instances like this happening to us and to give you insight about the situation. it's my first time to do this and kinakabahan talaga ako kasi iba to...] lahat ng tao lahat ng bagay lahat ng nasa paligid mo ay may halaga.... minsan di nakakalimutan natin ang tunay na halaga nila isinasantabi natin ang kahalagahan nila para lamang makuha nating an mga pangangailangan natin... di bale nang makasakit ng iba... basta nagawa mo ang pakay mo... tapos biglang darating ka sa bahagi ng buhay mo na mrerealize mo kung gaano kalaki ang nawala sayo... dun... tsaka mo pa lang makikita ang halaga ng tao o bagay... na isinantabi mo.Complete
