for the past month, i've been bombarded with several clues, signs... whatever you'd like to call it. apparently, the exorcisms weren't enough to banish my ghost. on the nightstand in my godmother's guestroom, there was a statuette of st. anthony. my grandfather took me to a grotto just up st. anthony road by the st. anthony shrine. i was invited to a wedding in san francisco and everybody insists that i would love the city and i should think about staying there for a while before flying home to manila. i said no. i'm not ready for that yet.
the biggest sign of all was last night. i was channel surfing and i came across an episode of samurai x which gave me the wake-up call i needed. the exact moment i came across animax, kenshin began his monologue ending with "i know how it feels to have a burning emptiness in your heart that can only be filled by a loved one. but sometimes, we have no choice but to live without them." yes, there will still be the occasional hauntings but i will say that line over and over to remind me that they're just ghosts that will go away when the dawn comes.
Song of the Day: Still Reminds Me Of You (by Anggun)
And I’ve tried to spend my time with somebody new
But everyone still reminds me of you
I tried to play some songs that’d changed my point of view
But every sound still reminds me of you
