Here Comes Another "July 9"

Sometimes, the most painful times in our lives are the hardest to forget. Not necessarily because we're still angry, sad or hurt. 


But because, we're just proud, that despite of the seemingly vivid and unwashed moments in the past where you still see yourself almost breathless with pain and in deep anguish... 


you are now just smiling about it.

Boy: mmmm.. hindi ko rin alam eh.

Girl: May iba ba?
