the meanies

"...just call on me brother, when you need a hand, we all need somebody to lean on..."

lean on i sure do. heavily i might add...during this very dark period of my life, never before have i leaned heavily on my family and friends as i have for the past 3-4 months. they have been the reason i'm still alive.

my family, even if we're separated geographically, have never been closer to me than they are now. their texts, emails and calls are part of my daily dose of happiness.

my girlfriends have always been there for me. we've been through this before with another girlfriend of ours although mine is a slightly different situation, it is as grave as our friend's predicament. they help me think about things subjectively and more importantly, objectively and they all have pretty damn good points.

but my day-to-day struggles are an entirely different thing. i've mentioned that i'm glad my work has kept me very busy therefore most of my time is spent in the office or out-of-town on official assignment. the people who i work with have given me an incredible amount of encouragement and have literally and figuratively, held my hand throughout the whole thing.

they've seen me sob, cry, wail and incoherently talk about the whole fucking situation. they lifted my spirits and even if they let me be, i know that should i slip, they'll be by my side in an instant.


L-R: tuesday, marlet, ian, me and macky; taken at the subic center very early in the morning (around 6 a.m.); we "conveniently" converged at the water/coffee station

TO THE MEANIES:

you guys will never know how much you mean to me. you've seen me at a time in my life that only a handful of people know of, much less heard about. you guys give me strength and still make me laugh 'til my stomach hurts even when i feel like crying. i will always keep you guys close to my heart and i hope you'll never tire of me. i love you guys so much! MEANIES FOREVER !!!!!
