To paraphrase Emmanuel Lacaba:

"'What is a mystic? He is one blessed, or burdened, with two things: infinite imagination, and infinite sadness.' Or, ___ thought, infinite love, and infinite madness."

Si Nanay? Si Tatay? Siguro, sa kabilang buhay. That is, kung sa langit din ang punta ko. (May langit nga ba?) (Pero, Lord, hindi pa naman ako nagmamadali ngayon...)

Si Jack Kerouac? Si Allen Ginsberg? Ah, si Emman Lacaba. At si John Lennon.

Puwede ring si Maria Sharapova, basta hindi siya sumisigaw.

Gusto ko ring maka-one-on-one sina:

- Adam Morrison
- Etan Thomas
- Adonal Foyle
- Steve Nash (oo, kahit nag-sell out siya sa Nike).

Honesty. Loyalty. Nothing short of unfettered, fearless love. Long walks in Greenbelt. Films at Glorietta. Texting till 3 a.m. Breakfast in Eastwood. The Beatles and Tom Waits and Velvet Underground. Ice cream, chocolate, spaghetti. Sunsets and red wine. Planned trips to Baguio, Galera, wherever. Something that is more than only fair. All's well that will end well.

That said, yes, she is.
