I Believe, I Believe

Author: Chin

I believe many things. I believe…

… that gazing at stars never gets old.

… that always finding ways to veer conversations around politics or one’s net worth is the equivalent of getting beat up by a newspaper or passbook.

… that conciseness is not always the soul of wit. At times, it’s egg and cheese omelette and three glasses of ice-cold, blended Lipton Brisk tea (with lemon and honey).

… that there are always instances when hoarding is a must – hoarding Eden or Quickmelt cheese, for instance, or Maybelline Cat’s Eye Mascara, or notebooks, or industrial supplies, or scented oils and scented candles.

… that I’d probably stop watching Stylista if Janice Dickinson became a contestant.

… that blowing bubbles is a treat for the young and the old.

… that many of the things I wanted at 15 would do zero for me now that I’m 27.

… that I could always do with one more dress in the closet (Strangely, I don’t believe the same of shoes. I haven’t bought a new one in almost a year!) but might have to do without because these are such tough times we live in.

… that imagination is far more precious than a trust fund, but it would rock to be given both.

… that Mondays will always suck, but one could always pretend to like it for the sake of growing to like it.

… that sinugbang baboy and lechon are great equalizers. They bring everyone – rich or poor – to their knees.

… that you don’t need to make perfect sense to make a blog post.

… that all girls are born with unquestionable rights to life, liberty, and blogging. And, on this note, I’m sharing with you the blog of my five-year-old. Her name is Alex, and only recently, she asked everyone in the household to address her as Miss Alex. How very pretentious, how very offbeat!

What about you? What do you believe?

    Hi Chin. Thank you for sharing glimpses of your soul. After reading this, I felt that I’ve taken a dip in the pool of your spirituality (does that sound obscene? hehehe)

    As for myself, I believe that love transcends distance and time…
