Lessons learned over the long weekend

Thank you, GMA, for the long weekend. It made me realize a lot of things.

1. Some things are bound to happen, but some things are also bound to end. No matter how hard you try to avoid something from happening, it still happens anyway. If it does happen, don't feel sorry nor regret that it did. Charge it to experience, and to more expenses at that.

2. Love is but a word. Sacrifice gives it meaning. That is, according to my CEO and the trycicle where this poem was posted. Mushy but true nonetheless. It takes a lot of sacrifice and hardships to keep love and continue being in love. You just have to be sure that it's worth it.

3. When you are faced with a fidelity dilemma and you were able to transcend it, you will never have to be faced with that issue again. Says Marione. I believe so. One you have learned how to fend the temptation off, you would know how to fend it off again when it comes your way in the future.

4. You think you can stop anytime you want, but in reality, you just can't. Because if this were true, you should have stopped even before it started. Hmmm...

5. The bottomline is still what you really value in life. When faced with a lot of choices, the decision would always come down to what matters most to you. There will always be the seduction of trying out new things, but what would keep you grounded is what you consider important and your choice to stick with it.
