S.O.S.

When I was a little girl, I would always get lost in the mall each and everytime my parents would take me there. It happens so often that everytime before we leave the house they would never forget to reiterate their instruction of what to do when I get lost. Ironically, each time I had the strongest confidence that I will not get lost this time. And each time I was found, a hefty scolding will follow soon after.

Almost 20 years after, I’m back in that state of confusion and hopelessness. That I wish there is some grown-up out there that will help me get out of this mess I got myself in, maybe the security guard accompanying me to the customer service to have my parents paged. Someone. Anyone.

I was confident I will not tread the wrong path. I was sure I’m making the right turns. I had the strongest confidence. There wasn’t any scolding. Things apparently don’t change that much when we grow up, after all.

I’m lost. Help?

Lam mo.. nung bata ako, ni minsan hindi ako nawala. Kahit naghiwalay kami ng nanay ko sa divisoria, mga 10 to 15 minutes lang, alam ko na kung asan sya. Maingay kasi yun e, saka unique ang boses. Alam ko agad kung asan sya, kumbaga sigurado na ako na safe ako basta marinig ko boses nya...

kung nawawala ka, da best pa ding gabay yung subok na. ;-)

ay, ako din nawala sa mall, sa toy kingdom. ayaw kasi ako ibili ng vtech ng lolo ko so nagmaktol ako tapos humiwalay ako tapos nung hindi ko na sila makita, saka ko lang na-realize na wala na palang tao sa loob ng toy kingdom kasi may nasusunog na goma na sa loob so they had to evacuate the area. tanga no?

wala lang.

well, we sometimes have to get lost in order to find ourself again.

dont worry sis, keep yer chin up. follow what your heart tells you... you wont get lost.ü

basta were always always ALWAYS here. :)

*hugs*

dapat may compass ikaw. and you should know what/who your compass is. at times, we may never know where to go, but that sense of direction always tells us whereto. and if we're lucky enough it also tells the when. :)

At times of darkness, let the eyes of the heart light the way.
