"Are You Tired Enough?"

How many times 

do you have to keep saying...

"It's over!"

but your heart can hardly 

bear the loss.

How many times 

do you have to believe in 

promises...

when trust is gone and words are doubtful?

How many times

do you have to give up and

turn your back

if your heart overpowers your mind?

How many times

do you have to be beaten

and bruised

before you surrender and give up the fight?

Maybe, you never get enough of

love and hurt

until you are emotionally 

drained, exhausted and tired.

I'm in Cloud 9

The reasons why I'm in cloud 9

Beyond happiness is what you feel

when you're in cloud 9

It's like you're floating on air

and you wish to stay there forever

Living a life in comfort and wealth

brings an extreme euphoria

but  a castle is an empty place

without a loving king and queen to embrace

Quoted Photographs

"If only LOVE is as naive and innocent as these young hearts do,

LIFE will never be complicated."

Sentimental

"Knowing how to love is
knowing how to be hurt.
But learning to accept failure
is learning how to take a step
in letting go."

Fix what is broken

return from where you start.

Take what is given

swear not to depart.

Search what is lost

learn from the past.

Value what it costs

savor while it lasts.

How hard is a diamond?

Is it like a rock in a volcano's core

or a difficult dilemma 

you are facing now?

How would you compare it

with the kindness

of a human heart?

Shining bright like a diamond?

Invaluable gesture...

priceless humility.

ALFONSO YLAG
- Witty and funny according to himself, but actually he is a real jerk sometimes especially when he's with close friends. Alfie or also known as PINGGOT, is currently residing in Rego Park, New York and working in Best Western. He came from a failed marriage but is blessed with two sons and a daughter. Being the father who should provide, he's constrained to stay in the US for a job opportunity.

He is single but not available... saving his love for that someone whom  he considered LOVE of his life. Quite complicated relationship... nevertheless, hopeful that GOD will hear his heart's desire for a lifetime partner. Being alone, away from his loved ones is the saddest part of his journey through life and trying to earn decent income to support and provide his children the best education is the main reason why he had to work overseas. He wants to have financial stability.
