keychain

i carry my money, my driver's license, credit/debit cards and other I. D. cards in this little, baby blue, polo sport (by ralph lauren) that i got couple years ago. i don't like carrying big bulky wallets unless i'm in a formal setting. well, two days ago, the keychain with the logo "polo sport" on my coin purse broke and i have to replace it with another one unless i want to close this purse with my pinky which is hard to do as you can imagine.

so, here i went into a keychain hunt. i dug on my storage boxes, my room, my brothr long's room, my sister kring's room, my baby bro LA's room, my parent's room...just about anywhere. i found some that were fine but it was a bit big and the chain holder won't fit snugly on the purse's chain.

but first, hear this:

for several days, i have been feeling icky and distracted of the events going on in my life. i know i should be thankful because i have a wonderful family (they're irritating, sometimes, but bottom line is, though they don't show it, i know deep inside they love me dearly), my circle of friends are great and supportive, my lovelife is zero as of now but there are many fishes in the sea~just letting time chose it for me, i am doing all my best to have a fulfilling career, and i am one year away from doing so. in short, i have my whole life ahead of me and i should enjoy it. but with all these, i feel like something is missing. i feel incomplete.

it's that feeling when you soak yourself in the tub for endless hours and there's comfort and relaxation. it's that feeling of having your favortie ice cream on a hot summer day or having your a hot chicken noodle soup on a chilly winter night. it's that sense of aroma you smell while your mother cooked you a homecooked meal after eating gazillion TV dinners in the college dorm. it's that sense of semblance when you finished a calculus problem ( or any homework) that you spent hours trying to solve and figure out. it's that aura of seeing long lost friends for the first time after so many years. i want that feeling.

well, the keychain....

after what it seemed like a trillion years, i found one. it was attached to one of those little marbly, orange colored jade, chinese bracelets. so i detached it from the bracelet. i just got the silver circle chain with a one marble of jade on the center of the keychain. anxious, i connected the chain to my purse and it was perfect. it fitted snugly. i liked it.

yesterday or the other day, my sis kring borrowed a dollar from me so i told her to get my purse. i opened my precious purse with my well coveted jade emblemmed keychain. i gave her the dollar. and then, i glared at the keychain where the jade was on the center of it. on the bottom, there was some engrave word i can hardly read from apart. so i looked at it thoroughly.

it read: happiness.

i realized, that's what i've been searching for...that's what i need to complete my being.

HAPPINESS.

i promise more days of happiness.

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.
