If Tomorrow Starts Without Me by David Romano

When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me,
 

I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
 

I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
and each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.
 

But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.
 

But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
 

I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.
 

I thought of all the yesterdays
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
and all the fun we had.
 

If I could re-live yesterday
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.
 

But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.
 

And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.
 

But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne.
 

He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you."
Today your life on earth is past,
But here life starts anew.
  

I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last,
And since each day's the same way
There's no longing for the past.
 

You have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true.
Though there were times
You did some things
You knew you shouldn't do.
 

But you have been forgiven
And now at last you're free.
So won't you come and take my hand
And share my life with me?
 

So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

I have read this before and after hearing a very sad news about a  dear friend, I thought of sharing this here, for him.

This is for you. We love you Kuya Rei. Unending Prayers and Hopes we willingly offer for seeing you in so much pain hurts as too. We understand. We believe in you, you'll get through, you are strong.

I may not know her and you for a long time, but I know that she is very much proud of you, she loves you dearly and she knows you can make it.

May GOD bless you, she's just around, and we will be, as always. I love you kuya Rei.

What is ART? - maARTe ako

It made such an impact to me and surely for a lot too. Just inspiring. Enough for us artists (of all sorts) to keep on expressing and affecting by creating. Never stop creating.

Let me give my definition too.

ART IS SIMPLY LIFE ITSELF .

Kudos to the minds behind this amazing campaign and to the cast, I agree dahil maARTe din ako. I believe that we all are :')

What You're Forgetting

If you choose to be conceited, be sure that you deserve what you and the other parties are getting. Not all the time, it's okay to be such.

.

Conceited

Here's another fact:

It's not just about what you feel, not all the time.

Try to reconsider the people around you. They care about you and yet you take them for granted and pity yourself. If we don't cry or nag about problems all the time, that doesn't mean we're not hurt or affected in any way. It's just that we choose to have problems and face them with a positive heart. We choose to smile with our friends to not let them down and eventually show our own selves that we want to surpass everything smiling.

The world will never revolve just around you.
Living isn't about you, it's about the people you affect.

Given

And so I tweeted:

"Because if you think they do, sorry but not everyone does. They will just try for the sake of you not hating them or/and some will try for they REALLY want you to stop from crying and hurting."

Sadly, they can't see it. They will never know for they sometimes choose to not know. Only few will truly understand because those who know and accept you by heart are lesser than you think. It'll take a lot more of overcomings to lead you into telling yourself that you're having the best already.

I did chose my words wisely. I don't feel sorry about being honest. It's million times better than just nodding and faking in front of their eyes. Again, I CARE and if they can't seem to see that I do, it is their choice to either go deeper and seek or just let their emotions tell them what to do. I'll continue caring but remind myself that I am not getting any in return anymore.

That's how it goes. As to an elementary Math problem, it is given.
