Hera

The queen of the Olympian deities and was worshipped as the goddess of marriage and birth. Hera is the most beautiful of all immortals, even more beautiful than Aphrodite.

. . . and that's just the name. ;-)

    Why I Went to The Woods
    H.D. Thoreau
    I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and to be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.

    ** sa isang bus pabalik ng maynila galing banaue **

    "so galit ka sa kin?"
    "hindi noh. isasama ba kita sa trip na to kung galit ako sa yo?"
    " medyo nagui-guilty pa rin ako sa nangyari noon."
    "tapos na yon. ganon talaga. ang importante, naging close friends tayo. mas ok yon, diba?
    "onga. best friends na nga tayo e! halika nga dito at pa-akap."

    best friend. sino nga bang mag-aakalang magiging ka-close ko tong mokong na to, much less maging best friend pa!? puchat. e dinate-date ako nito at pagkatapos ko syang magustuhan, bigla nalang syang mawawala at magkakagirlfriend. e nahulog na nga ata ako sa kanya noon. buti nalang matatag akong babae. o baka tanga lang talaga. mapagpanggap. nagpapakamanhid. ewan ko ba!

    "alam mo ikaw lang ang kaibigan kong babaeng inaakap ko nang ganito. sobrang komportable kasi ako sayo."
    "sus!.tsina-tsansingan mo lang ako e."
    "ulul! pag-alis ko, mami-miss mo rin ako. malapit na yon."
    ". . . wag muna natin sigurong pag-usapan yon."
    "sige. sandal ka na lang sa 'kin. matulog ka kung gusto mo. mahaba pa ang biyahe."


    susubukan ko munang pumikit. siguro pag makakatulog ako, pansamantalang makakalimutan kong aalis na sya sa susunod na buwan. di na sya babalik. siguro kung bumisita man sya, isang beses sa isang taon. pero don na sya. malayo ang singapore. kung makapunta man ako don, siguro pag matanda na ako. malamang iba na ang buhay namin. baka mag-asawa na sila nung girlfriend nyang thai.

    shet. bat ba ko naluluha!? inis na inis ako pag nagdadrama ang mga mata ko nang ganito. ngayon, tuloy-tuloy na ang daloy ng luha sa pisngi ko, papunta sa t-shirt nya. minumura ko na sya ngayon--tangina. sana hindi ka nalang naging mabait. o magaling mag-isip. o magaling magpatawa. o maalaga sa kin. sana makalimutan kita agad pag-alis mo. tama. makakalimutan din kita, sa mga araw na di ko na maririnig ang boses mo, sa panahong ibang balikat na ang sinasandalan ko. sana lang, hindi mo mahalatang medyo basa ang t-shirt mo.

    ** pagkatapos ng isang oras ng pagtutulug-tulugan **

    "nakatulog ka ba ng maayos?"
    "oo, salamat. ikaw?"
    "hindi, pinapanood lang kitang matulog"

    napakahimbing ng tulog nya. ramdam ko ang diin ng ulo nya sa dibdib ko, para bang may pinapakinggan sya. ilang beses ko na ring inisip na baka nagkamali ako nung itinigil ko yung paglabas-labas namin. kung itinuloy ko yon, malamang kami na. pero ngayon, wala nang balikan. mahal ko ang girlfriend ko. wala akong pinagsisisihan. wala nga ba?

    "tanong lang."
    "go."
    "sa tingin mo, anong klaseng lalake ang dapat sa kin?"
    "dapat sa  yo yung mature mag-isip, medyo strong ang personality. hindi pwede sayo yung lalampa-lampa. hindi ka nya masasabayan."
    "may kilala ka bang ganon? ipakilala mo nga ako."

    touché! haha!

    hmm… so hindi ako ganon?

    "ayoko nga. ayaw kitang ipamigay"
    "ay ang drama!"

    anong ayaw ipamigay!? pinakawalan na nya 'ko noon e. paano na kung magkahiwalay sila at gusto pala nya ako? pano kung hindi na ako pwede by then? kasalanan na nya yun. pero nagulat ako sa sagot nya. kilalang-kilala pala nya talaga ako. pero sa tingin ko tinutukoy nya sarili nya.

    bat ganon? alam kong hindi naman dapat pero ayokong isipin na magkakaron sya ng boyfriend. ano kayang pakiramdam na mahalin ng babaeng katulad nya? malamang kakaiba yon. paano kaya sya humalik? ano kayang pakiramdam na maka-ano sya? ok… tama na!

    "o sige na, tulog na tayo. nasa manila na tayo by 1am."
    "tagal pa... huy…"
    "o?"
    "tama ka. mami-miss kita pag-alis mo."

    hay. kelangan ko na muna sigurong tigilan ang sobrang pag-iisip. sa isang buwan, nasa sing na 'ko at mas mapapalapit na ko sa girlfriend ko. kung ano mang bumabagabag sa isip ko, mawawala rin 'to. buti nalang naging magkaibigan ulit kami. at pakiramdam kong hindi ko na ulit sya makakasama nang ganito. pero nganon, parang may malaking butas sa tiyan ko. parang may mali.

    "alam ko. lapit ka pa nga. pa-akap ulit."

    bakit kasi kung kelan sya aalis, saka pa kami naging close? kung kelan pa naging okay na ako, saka sya muling lalapit at papahirapan na naman akong sanayin ang sarili sa pagkawala nya. at ngayon mas mahirap pa kasi lalayo na sya nang tuluyan. para na rin syang namatay. siguro nga mas mabuti na yon. makakalimutan ko rin sya. sabi ko nga, matatag ako. kakayanin ko kahit ano. siguro maliban lang sa isa-- na tawagin nya akong best friend habang akap nya ako nang ganito.

    fr jeff / p -- thank you.

    malamlam -- gusto mo malaman kung totoo?

    had you not said this is fiction, i would have gone on believing this had happened to you.

    ah well, the truth is, a part of me still believes that this entry's based on real experience. your experience.

    there could only be two possibilities:
    1. this is real, you just don't have the guts to admit it.
    2. you write really well that you can make fiction appear like it's your own life story you're telling us.

    and you know what?

    i highly doubt the first one.

    yayam-- thanks. if the premise of this story is not a parting of these characters, then perhaps a thin book could be written.

    owen-- thanks also for visiting and commenting.

    hhahahhaha... my entries are really not meant to be dramatic and overdrawn. Or at least I do not embellish bordering fiction. I tell them as truthfully as they are, with the words I know.

    At least may good effect sya sa iyo konti. Losing him is making you write with more passion and vividness. He is not totally without use! Bwahahahaha

    duke-- salamat sa pagbisita. :)

    light-- i admit it was a bit inspired but of course this is all made-up. *wink*

    bing-- the despair of losing someone we thought was the ideal person is one of the best source of dramatic entries like this. it happens to the best of us. we're all toads waiting to be kissed.

    hera, having the courage to walk away is amazing. Maybe he is perfect .... for somebody else, not you.

    Maybe he is just another frog before the prince. And we can get easily attached to frogs and their slimy disposition.

    Have courage. We soon shall find our Princes. They may still be evolving from their greenish, amphibious armors, but soon they will evolve into our Princes.

    Soon. I will wait with you, I promise.

    ade-- yeah. it makes me sigh every time i read it.

    tanggerz-- baka nga ikaw yun? smooth operator ka rin ba? hehehe

    pendong / guy -- i admit i had to pull this from somewhere--a real friend, a real conversation, a real emotion.

    dwaipayan-- this is in filipino. im sorry i had to write it in my native language. it's more dramatic that way.
