Uzzap EXperience

It was January 1, 2009 when I downloaded my uzzap application. It's been 1 year and 9 months now. I can still remember the first room I entered. For a week, I was there. chatting, exchanging ASLs, basic information then wandered at some rooms. Then after a month, I found a room where I became a regular chatter. I started to enjoy their company. Before I knew it, I was already addicted. Staying late almost everyday,expressing my bad, immature and noisy side. It became a routine, especially when I met my love team there. I was so hooked that I failed to notice how stagnant and unproductive I became. Well, that was where I runaway during the darkest hours of my life. I was brokenhearted that time and I felt I have no other options left but to hide "there". I didn't felt like going out with my friends nor talked about my problems with them. I didn't liked to go anywhere. I was so contented sitting and chatting. All I really wanted that time was to be ALONE.

That time, Uzzap was a great help. Those people that I have chatted were crazy and funny and seriously, they're making me laugh. Sometimes, other people thought of me as crazy for suddenly laughing and smiling alone. Lol (I knew it though and I didn't care. hahaha). It made me forget the pain and frustrations. And somehow, days passed normally for me. I mean, (before, without that uzzap thingy, the more I do nothing, the more I feel so helpless and frustrated for the lost love. Self-pitying. Couldn't sleep, couldn't eat. I was so lonely and in deep misery. So thank god, UZZAP was there.)

But then, as I slowly recovered from the wound of the lost love, I started to realize that UZZAP was no longer healthy for me. I failed to do my obligations at home and I turned out to be unproductive at my work. In chatting there, you'll never notice the time because you're enjoying. You will just know if it's breakfast, lunch, meryenda or dinner time if someone posted it. Yes, that's how I was hooked. I overlooked all the people around me at the real world.... Family, friends and officemates. I overlooked them because I was so busy chatting... chatting and chatting. Everyday, that was my routine. Chatting with co-regulars and of course with my so called "loveteam".

I guess having a love team there made my routine so worst. I am online for almost 24/7 because I was with my love team in a private room or even in a public room. Sleeping together, watching TV shows and sometimes even movies together, eating together, laughing together, planning together, going out together. Always TOGETHER. We're even partners in crime. We bacame a public figure there. FYI, She was the number 1 trivia master and even the best game master. She was famous for that. For me, She is the best. She is almost perfect... be it in a real or cyberworld.

With her, I feel so loved and envied by many (because I got the most beautiful, sexy, hot, talented and intelligent woman in uzzap!) She was my strength when I was weak. She was my shoulder to cry on. She was always there to cheer me up, to make me smile. She speaks her mind, even if it can/will hurt me... just to make me realize things, to awaken me... (I didn't know if I'm in love with her though. Was it love?)

To be continued...

Sa bandang huli, ikaw din ang biktima. Rebeldeng walang napatunayan at bait sa sarili."

If you have some romantic movie quotes, you are very much welcome to share it here.

"Did I marry the right person?"

This is a very good article. Those who are still single may learn something from here. Those who are already married or in a commitment may take it as a guideline to improve your marriage & relationship...

DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON?

During one of our seminars, a woman asked a common question. She said, "How do I know if I married the right person?"
I noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so I said, "It depends. Is that your husband?"
In all seriousness, she answered "How do you know?"

Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it's weighing on your mind.

Here's the answer.
EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning, you fell in love with your spouse/partner. You anticipated their call, wanted their touch, and liked their idiosyncrasies (unconventional behavior/habit) .

Falling in love with your spouse wasn't hard. In fact, it was a completely natural and spontaneous experience.
You didn't have to DO anything. That's why it's called "falling" in love... Because it's happening TO YOU.

People in love sometimes say, "I was swept of my feet." Think about the imagery of that __expression. It implies that you were just standing there; doing nothing, and then something came along and happened TO YOU.

Falling in love is easy. It's a passive and spontaneous experience. But after a few years of marriage, the euphoria (excitement) of love fades. It's the natural cycle of EVERY relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls become a bother (if they come at all), touch is not always welcome (when it happens), and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute, drive you nuts.

The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship, but if you think about your marriage, you will notice a dramatic difference between the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry subsequent stage.

At this point, you and/or your spouse might start asking, "Did I marry the right person?"
And as you and your spouse reflect on the euphoria of the love you once had, you may begin to desire that experience with someone else.
This is when marriages or relationship breakdown. People blame their spouse/partner for their unhappiness and look outside their marriage/relationship for fulfillment.

Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and sizes. Infidelity is the most obvious.
But sometimes people turn to work, a hobby, excessive TV, or abusive substances.

But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your marriage. It lies within it.
I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love with someone else.
You could.

And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a few years later. Because (listen carefully to this):

THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE/RELATIONSHIP IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.

SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll NEVER just happen to you. You can't "find" LASTING love. You have to "make" it day in and day out. That's why we have the __expression "the labor of love." Because it takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to make your marriage/relationship work. Sure true love can only happen after you've fallen out of love. When you begin choosing to love, even if you don't feel like doing it ---- that's true love. And that's the foundation of a lasting and strong marriage.


Make no mistake about it. Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific things you can do (with or without your spouse) to succeed with your marriage.

Just as there are physical laws of the universe (such as gravity), there are also laws for relationships.
Just as the right diet and exercise program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your relationship WILL make your marriage stronger.
It's a direct cause and effect. If you know and apply the laws, the results are predictable. .. you can "make"love.

Love is indeed a "decision".. . Not just a feeling. You'll not just go away with your relationship just because the feeling is gone. In the Bible, love is a command. You make it happen.

Remember this always:

"God determines who walks into your life. It is up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go."
FW: Ruth Beltran

"Marriage is more than saying I Do. Marriage, like a precious plant, needs constant tending for it to grow, flourish, and bear fruit to last a lifetime, and beyond."

One of the most unforgettable persons once said to me: In order for love to grow deeper and deeper each day, both of you have to appreciate and cultivate it with so much love. You have to understand each others shortcomings and learn from it. For once either of you overlook or neglect to cultivate it, love will die and so is the foundation that you have. You will never notice when or how but before you knew it, Love has already left the two of you. So while it's there, learn to cherish and give the extra effort it deserve. :)

"If you have time to whine and complain about something then you have the time to do something about it."

This is damn true and people who always complain without any initiative on their part to address on something they complain really pisses me off. I am not a racist here but, I always observe this scenario for most Filipinos (Uh-oh. Mind you, I'm also a Filipino). Complaining to almost every issues. Be it little or whatsoever... they're wasting so much time bragging, pinpointing and blaming! Geeez!

I'll share one of my encounters about this.

While I was on my way home, riding in a jeepney. It was raining. Seated next to me and the woman beside her talks about the flood issue.

Ale 1: Umuulan na naman. Baha na naman nito sa kalye namin.

Ale 2: Mga tapon kasi ng tapon ng basura kung saan-saan. May basurahan na ngang nakikita, sa daan pa itatapon!

Ale 1: Mga nasa gobyerno, ang tagal ng hindi inaaksyunan kasi yung baha doon samin. Kailangan pa yatang may mamatay bago sila umaksyon!

Ale 2: Bigyan nyo ng lagay, mabilis pa sa alas kwatro mga yan!

Ale 1: Ang dami-dami ngang basurang nakakalat doon! Wala man naglilinis!

-end- (Nagpaalam at bumaba na si Ale 1)


Geeez! If you have time to whine and complain about it then you have the time to do something about it! Are you really going to wait for someone to die? why not get out of your house and start cleaning?! Have the INITIATIVE mah mehn! For sure, your co-barangays will follow you! I bet!

Did you ever ask yourself about these everytime you complain... "what can/must I do?" "what can I help?" or said about: "Okay, let me do it or I'll do it."

Well, Let us imagine a place where people in such a community have the so called "initiative"... where people didn't have to wait for someone to pick up their messes, where people didn't have to wait for someone to feed them. Or where people didn't blame each others fault but instead, they help hand in hand on how to address and overcome the problem. Oh, what a lovely place to live in. *sighs*
