"Am I just?"
I miss my brother, who's currently working as a call center agent in Manila, a lot. He used to be my buddy in a room that I inured to call my own. In his stay here in Iloilo, I never got the chance of thanking him for writing an article about realization. Publishing his article today, I guess, may give him the credit and my own way of letting him know how I really appreciate his work. My dear readers allow me to share the story entitled: My One and Only Love.
One of the best qualities I have is my fidelity to my wife and to our marriage vow. Our romance was formed because of faith, hope and love. I could say that our love story is guided with Divine Providence and written and created by the Lord, the best author of romantic stories of all times.
In the journey of our marriage, I met Rina, the wife of my bestfriend Johnny. She is gorgeous, beautiful and intelligent. At the back of my mind, if I am not married there is a great possibility that I had courted her and made her. But, that was just a state of mind because my wife knew that she was the only woman in the center of my heart.
Time passed by and we became business partners. Actually it was a partnership with my bestfriend. Since Rina had the most potential of persuading clients, she had been my companion in dealing with our business transactions. I was dumbfounded whenever she talked.
Until such time when my attraction for her boosted out. That was our business trip in Boracay. I had a hard time associating with Johnny for the lustful desire I had for his wife. Everything was affected even how I treated my wife, Rose.
The day before our departure, Rose gave me a letter.
...Beneath the golden sand of Boracay...
...Inside the room of Royal Park...
The crispy fried chicken of Andoks...
The crust of pizza of Mango Ray...
The max energy contained in pepsi can...
The scent of menthol overflowing the Nestea...
The crackling of Nova and Mr. Chips...
The captivating waves along the seashore...
The tears flowing from the innocent eyes...
Behind those memories there were faith, hope and love overtaking my heart.
Faith that I know you will never betray.
Hope that I believe that will never go astray.
Love, yes my endless and untiring love for my one and only husband.
Happy Birthday Honey!
My heart was pounded when I read those words. What a shame! I forgot everything just only because of the call of the flesh.
I embraced Rose with all my love and decided to spend another night only with her, my one and only love.
Being faithful is giving your 100% trust to the person whom you loved the most. In the previous column I mentioned that we should love a person unconditionally, no buts or ifs. When we trust a person, still it should be unconditionally, still with no buts or ifs. And when we stay faithful to the person we loved the most the same thing will apply.
If you fail and you tend to disobey these simple rules, regret is on our part and as they say and I quote, "nasa huli ang pagsisisi."
The realization will be at the last part of the chapter. However, before you reach the ending, climax comes first. This is the right time for you to make some twist in the story. This time you have all the choices, make sure you pick the right one. It is the test of your expertise in choosing the so-called win-win situation without losing the person whom you love. And it is the test against you, better yet face the mirror and ask yourself if you are fair enough.
Its good thing for me, realization came first before anything else. And I say, bro, "Am I just?"
