A Love Story

This movie is a drama that will bring to the fore issues that affect a lot of people today: marriage and infidelity. It's about a man, a woman and a wife that comes between them. I can relate to the movie except the "married" part.

Would you believe that I've experienced "love triangle" 5 times? Yes, you got it right, 5 times! What a revelation, huh? *Whoa oversharing!* It was painful/heartbreaking but it made me stronger and wiser. No regrets. I hope it would stop on the 5th. *oh God, please* I don't want it to happen again specially if I'm married already. I'd die...*hahaha* Those 5 where different stories all together *wink* and what a relief I wasn't married yet when it happened. Otherwise, I'm doomed!

Ok, I've been in these situations:

1. Man and woman + me
2. Me and my man + another woman
3. then, I met a guy
4. Me and my man + a man and a woman
5. Me and my man + another man (this was a rollercoaster!)

Geez, so juicy huh? You guys might be thinking who are the people behind these, *hahaha* please spare that to me. *wink* Some of you might know...

One couldn't escape of the things that are bound to happen no matter how hard you try. It will just hit you! (most of the time, unexpectedly) It doesn't choose people. (rich, poor, girl, boy, gay, old, young, educated, illiterate, etc.) I despise to be in this situation, but still it happened to me not just once, but many times. It was like a cycle. I know, things happen for a reason.

Since childhood, I've been trained to know and do what my heart desires. I know what I want and I get what I want because of my determination. But I never pray for it because He might give it even if it is not meant for me. (I'd lose it eventually. I hate that feeling!) I let Him control my life the way he wants it to be. Reason why I don't fear failure that much. It made me realize that in every failure, there is a success. One has to feel sorrow, to be able to appreciate happiness.

I've realized that good endings make good beginnings. It became a cycle for me because I never get closures until the last one. *whew!* It takes acceptance for one to MOVE ON or perhaps TO LET GO.

Acceptance + Forgiveness = PEACE OF MIND. It has to be two-way, dear. Faking it won't make any better, sweetie. So, don't ever pretend that you have accepted and granted forgiveness if you still nag about it. Don't fool yourself.

I'd be proud to share these stories to my children and grandchilren or even to new friends. This is a REALITY IN LIFE and we should not judge people experiencing this. It's hard to fight with EMOTIONS but all of us has a CHOICE.

Ok going back, it is not a typical love triangle pinoy movie wherein you can already foresee the ending even if you started the movie half way. I like how they twist the story. I don't want to divulge everything here, you must see the movie for you to appreciate it.

A Love Story. Now showing! =)
