make up for not having a brother/sister.
I always think that having true friends is God’s way of making me feel like I have a brother/sister (lots of them actually). Anybody may argue with me that having a friend is never the same as having a brother or a sister. Argue all you want, but I’d rather count my blessings and not look for something (or someone) I don’t have.
I find it rude sometimes when people immediately passes judgement by saying “Ay, isa ka lang na anak, eh di ang lungkot ng buhay mo?” when I tell them that I’m an only child. And my answer has always been “No”. Never in my mind or heart that I feel something is missing in my life just because I never experienced having a sibling. What I always feel is that I have special people in my life who will always be there for me and whom I’m bonded not by blood, but by heart.

Tlaga you’re an only child? Wow, same here! and it’s true, never ko rin na feel maging malungkot ang buhay, coz I have true friends whom I value as my brother/sister.
Pero cguro ang difference natin is malungkot ako for not having a dad on my side. (That’s a different topic naman)
Anyways, just want you to know, you are one the person whom I look up to, reading your life thru blog when it comes to handling married life. 🙂

True friends are one of life’s greatest blessings.

Read your blog for a while and decided to start one myself. Hope you like to join mine as well.

I agree with the comment above, very intelligent at balanced ang views mo about married life. You sound so secure especially that topic about long distance relationship. Pinaste ko nga sa isa kong friend na wala ng ginawa kung hindi mag suspect at mag monitor sa hubby nya 24/7:)

having one true loyal friend is better than ten thousand relatives.
agree ako ate. dalawa lang kaming magkapatid and magkalayu pa kami. I thank God for giving me best friends. They’re my brothers and sisters on a different mom. hehe.
my best friend said to me once, enough na sa kanya ang isang anak kasi magkakaanak pa daw sya with me and to our other friends too. OO nga, that got me thinking.

In this life we will have friends who will treat us (and vice verca) like more than real sisters/brothers.
