All of us wants to be in the best situation. We are afraid of failures, judgement and criticisms. With the fast-changing world today, standards are being set higher that our heights. These standards created by the world made us live with expectations. There are standards created for the educational system, that tell us that the best jobs are always given for those well-educated individuals. Laws are commandments to follow, believing that this make us all fair and live freely. Beauty comes first, millions of cosmetics are now available for the physical improvement, making our appearance more presentable and more likable. STANDARDS ARE EVERYWHERE.
These reasons, made me believe that in LOVE, standards are mostly needed, to avoid wrong decisions, pain and wasting of time. BEST CRITERIA WOULD HELP YOU IN FINDING THE BEST MAN FOR YOU.

Until I realized that love is a carnival.. it gives you a roller coaster ride; the sweetest cotton candy; the fluffiest stuffed toy; the most memorable time of your life.. but at the end of the day, you'll realize that it was all smokes, mirrors and illusions.

The Sailor's Anchor (COMPLETED)
NO LIES, NO SECRETS Even if you're far apart, there should be no secrets, unless it's a surprise, of course, secret first. Always remember, there is a distance between you, don't expand on lying. COMMUNICATION This is really the most important, why? Off course. Understand that one of the most important of all 'coz communication is a bridge. TIME Time is gold. Time is of the essence. Giving time to your loved ones is better than material things. That's something you can't take back but you can ask for. TRUST As they say, this is the hardest thing to give and give back. Because you just made a mistake. Any arrangement is cracked. So you should never get the relationship rule again. Just trust each other and of course trust God that you can handle and you will overcome all the trials that come to both of you. BE STRONG You must be strong both. If your relationship is strong, no matter how far away you are, you can handle it. Also understand that when you love, you must also be ready to be hurt. Just hold on to what is important, you are both fighting. Learn to endure and wait because they say, it is better to wait than to hurry because it is only temporary.

Imperfections of Being Perfect
"It is not being perfect what we used to be, it is what our hearts desire to show who we really are." - Reena Francesca CampbellComplete
Carrying the Real Trophy ✓
Bakit kaya hindi na lang gumawa ng perpektong tao ang Diyos? Bakit kailangan may mga taong halos sambahin at may mga taong halos pandirian? Bakit hindi pantay at patas ang mundo para sa lahat? Those are the questions that haunt me late at night. I belong to those who don't receive love because I do not meet people's standards. I belong to those who lack privilege because I am not considered beautiful. I am not like them. I am not like those other pretty women. I am not what he wants me to be. But then came this man, my fake boyfriend, who made me realize that I am enough just as I am. He showed me that there's beauty in embracing who you are. That there's relief in believing in yourself, even when others don't. That you can sleep peacefully when you stop worrying about others' opinions. That man is Rafael Magnius Gonzalvez, a dentistry student, who told me that among all his achievements and trophies he carried, I am the most valuable and treasured one. He treats me like I am the most loved person in the world, even after countless heartbreaks. He's a living proof that love will find me, no matter who I am.Complete
THIS IS ME
THIS IS ME You wake up in the morning to look in the mirror, To say "This is me". To Compare yourself to what you think you should be. "I'm fat.", "I'm ugly.", "How can this be?", "Why did God do this to me?", You put on some make-up or some acne-cream, To cover the blemishes that others can see. But it doesn't mater what others see, Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, And the beholder is me. So stop annotating, And start complimenting, Not on what should be, But on what is! You were created in God's image, Oh. How. Powerful. To see who you really are, Oh. How. Magical. In that mirror is not, "I'm fat.", "I'm ugly.", But a scientific creation from stardust, Something that's way beyond us. And what's inside is something so unique, So special, Because no one else has it, It's. Like. Magic. It's you! You are the most amazing thing to walk on this Earth. With the ability to wake up and show your worth. So why wake up and talk negative? When you could wake up and smile. Why not be happy for a while? Why try to please everyone else, When all you have to do is be yourself? People say "What matters is on the inside.", And you say "But look at my outside.". And I say there is no good side, You as a whole is the creation, There is no separation. Each person with 46 chromosomes working in perfect symphony, Destroying themselves with negativity. Just Stop! You are beautiful because you are rare, Because no one else can compare. Your face, Your nose, Your eyes, With your sense of humor to comprise, Someone no one else can match. Try to make it in a lab... Try throw it down the hatch. You compare yourself to everyone else, When you are one of a kind. Why can't you get that in your mind? Diamonds aren't perfect so why should you be? Beauty is not symmetry. Look in the mirror and what do you see? The beauty that you are... This is me...Complete

Painful Reality
(Reality taught us the power of thinking and unending acknowledgment of truth without fearing the unknown. In life, people have a lot of questions in their heads that want an answer. They used to ask if we're right or not in every decision or any consequences that we had. They wanted to learn everything, they criticized every detail and there was always something not satisfactory. They always find it impossible to live in reality because human beings are exposed to what they call imperfection and incompatibility, yet human beings have a capacity to learn, acknowledge, take responsibility, create dreams and outcome for the future. They can also create new beginnings that may change the entire thing in this chaotic world of mind. (A LESSON OF DECADES and A NEW BEGINNING OUTSIDE THE BOX.)

Flaws and All
Sabi nila "Find the Perfect one for you". Pero sino nga bang perpekto? Sinong tao ang perpekto? All of us are flawed, all of us are imperfect. All of us have sinned. All of us have something in our body to be shamed about. Walang taong ginawa para maging perpekto. Bakit nga ba nauso ang standards sa Love? Papasa kapag maganda o gwapo, mayaman, matalino, maganda ang hubog ng katawan at talentado. Bakit pag sila madaling mahalin? Bakit sila madaling magustuhan at makahanap ng mamahalin? Bakit kailangan bago ka mahalin ng isang tao pasok ka muna sa kanyang standards? Hindi ba ay dapat mahalin ka ng buong ikaw? Bakit kapag mataba, hindi kagandahan, mahirap at di gaanong matalino ay mahirap mahalin? Does love requires us to perfect? Or it requires us to love someone who can accept us as a whole? As a flawed man, woman? Can someone love me? Flaws and all?Complete
Can You See My Heart? (Pontevedra Series #4)
Healing is such a long process to do. You will start to ask why things didn't turn out the way you wanted. You will start to ask when did the things start to go wrong. You will start to ask what will you do to get up and how will you complete yourself again. There are so many questions in life that you will start to seek for answers whenever you are on this process. I, honestly, don't know what happened to my life. I am rich. I have everything that I need in my life. But, why did I end up this way? Why did I end up being the most pathetic and broken person that I've ever known? All I want is just a pure love- a true love. A love that will be with me for the rest of my life. All I want is just that simple thing... But why can't I have it? Love is scary. The first and last time that I experienced it, I broke myself; I lost myself in the midst of loving someone. That's why I told myself that I won't ever take a risk again when it comes to love. I will never love anyone again. I will never open my heart again to anyone. But what if I'll meet the man that will help me to open my heart? The man that will show me how does true love really feels like? Am I going to take risk? Am I going to open my heart for him? Or I'll just keep myself a prisoner of my own past? Can I really trust him? Or he's just another walking nightmare? That's why I asked him if he can see my broken heart?Complete
