HAPPY 25TH BIRTHDAY GLENN!

i decided not to get glenn any gift for his birthday this year for the fact that i didn't want to cross the boundary between "more than friends" and simply, being "friends." during the past years, on every special occasion, i manage to give him gifts of all sorts. this year was probably the only time i didn't give him anything just to formalize the idea in his head that we are not together anymore even if we wanted to. however, why would i forget the birthday of the only person in this world i loved (take note, past tense) the most? though things has not been exactly been the best between us this year, it doesn't mean i am taking him off my "special people" list.

well, i waited until 12 midnight in hawaii and about 2 am here in los angeles and then i called glenn. suprisingly, he was awake. he told me he couldn't go to sleep and he had just read the letter i sent him. he mentioned the contents of my letter gave him all the emotions he can ever have: he felt loved, but at the same time, saddened by it because we are not together. he uttered he was expecting me to go to hawaii on his birthday to surprise him because i am that kind of person...spontaneous and full of surprises, but mostly, thoughtful and generous.

all this time i talked to him, he constantly reminded me how i met him four years ago. and how i blossomed from a rebellious gangster into a strong willed woman full of hopes and dreams to accomplish. i can sense he was glad i called btu at the same hand, he realized how old he's getting and how i am not a part of his life anymore.

glenn: i had no regrets loving you. things are different in a way because of the past events that occured. does that mean i love you less? no. i didn't stopped loving you. i just kept myself away from loving you because it is not the right emotions to feel. as i mentioned many times before, i am being a martyr here, glenn. if only ....if we can only rewind time and reverse the actions that took place. but the problem is, we can't. i am still dealing at letting you go. maybe, things will be better someday. right now, this is all we can ever be. but please know, that i am here...no matter what. still listening, still caring, still thinkign of you, still missing you...and behind my "i-don't-care-about-you" attitude, still loving you secretly.

MY SILENT REVERIES
writing is my passion. i created silent reveries years ago to vent out things i could not tell the world. it was my private, modern tech approach to scribbling my thoughts and emotions in a journal. in here, i can feely be who i am. i could cry my woes, i can love freely, i can grieve over a broken heart, i can celebrate the joys in my heart, i can rejoice with my accomplishments, i can tell stories of remarkable friendships and unforgettable connections i made with extraordinary people SECRETLY AND SILENTLY without worrying people might judge me. i hid under the name PINAY FREESTYLE.

but eventually, some people gained access to my secret place. so i opened my doors to them in the purpose that i could inspire them: to be better versions of themselves and to share themselves to the world. slowly, i embraced my readers as a part of my life. i welcomed the strange idea that my untold life stories and unconcealed revelations could be of help to others, to love and accept themselves as they are. and i, i came out from the animosity. i eventually became just the regular LEN - the nickname my family & friends call me.

i developed stories of love, of letting go, of falling in love all over again. i made great friendships. but if there's one thing i was particularly proud of, it was my undenying love for the LORD. i wrote and made soul searching, heart wrenching entries i entitled, "SPIRITUAL REVERIES" which you will find many here. it was my productive way to heal myself from twinge and while i am at it, i could also mend others spirits along the way and bring them back up to par with their faith and relationships with God. it has not stop there. it's still a constant journey.

and so, for as long as i can, i vowed to tell my memorable reflections,i have unmasked the hidden me. and the seeking and searching of life's meaning and purpose is not over. LIFE is a long road of discovering. and i still yet to discover many wonders of this world and satisfy my unending curiosity. but be warned. you can either love me or hate me. but i don't care. this is me: sripped and bare as i can be.

so i invite you into my chaotic unperfect world. join me in my whirlwind new travels of diving into the unknowns. let me share my life with you all over again. come in, as i tell you my SILENT REVERIES.

love,
len


DISCOVER ME: who is the lady behind the blogs?



"I want to have a personal light, the glow of oneself that comes from sheer willpower, the light of someone who has made important sacrifices in the name of things I think are important."

---Paulo Coelho's "Eleven Minutes"

my name is len. people always tend to judge me without discovering who i really am. i might look intimidating, a typical shop girl, and i act like a crazy party girl on the weekend. but i actually have brains. and i own an even bigger heart. the truth is, beyond the louis vuitton bags, beyond the lavish parties, the excessive passion to travel and the desire to get to know the world, if you got to know the REAL ME, i am really just a simple girl. my only desire is to be loved for who i am.
