How I Found Myself With These Legendaries

I am Ted. I enjoy the idea of the perfect date, the perfect time, and the perfect person. I feel the need to search for reasons for everything and whenever I get the chance to actually take a glance of it, I quickly retract. I am a hopeless romantic and I find comfort in all things simple. I enjoy the small stuff and I tend to get really sentimental about it. I laugh at the silliest jokes. I want to be fun, I want to be the life of the party but it always ends up the other way around; with me being no fun. I usually crack people with these really corny and lame antics which I perceive as a way to make others think that I'm cute. I usually take a longer time fixing my hair and I get mad when it gets ruined. Correction is the key! I like to correct people and blurt out unnecessary facts about anything. I value friendship at its most extreme point. And I love deeply to the point of doing the most random, most tremendous and most peculiar things just to prove a point and just to let someone know that I can do this much effort just for them. I easily get hurt. I am Ted.

I am Robin. Sometimes I fear commitment and the idea of being tied down to one person. But deep inside, I want something really special to happen. I am feisty. I crave for my dreams and plans to pursue them to my extent. I get hurt but I don't show it because I don't want people to see that I am weak. I would like to fire some shots whenever I can! I can push people away so hard that I always end up being alone. But the truth is, I only push them to know if they're going to fight their way back to me. I am a wolf in a sheep's clothing. I am Robin.

I am Lilly. I could be really spontaneous when the time demands for it. It's because maybe my whole life has been crafted so well in the plans and rules. I have an issue with anger and when I really dislike someone I could always give them my You're-Dead-To-Me-Stare. I always try to patch things up with understanding and little fantasies. You see, I sometimes view the world as an easy play ground where everyone can just calmly be with each other. But that's never going to happen, right? There are times when I know I need to find myself, to fight and struggle my way back to the person I thought I was before. But I always find my path straight to what could happen in the future. Just like Lilly, I treasure my friends the most and finds family in each of them. I take shelter in their words and laughs. I am always there for them. I am Lilly.

I am Marshall. I sometimes take the biggest steps but often times carry the softest heart. I always try to put things in the right manner; the right ways and means but sometimes destiny has their ways to mess me up. I may not be as huge and large as Marshall but we share the same big ideas, integrity and advocacies. I am technical but often times I act like a kid. But that makes me just lovely to those I love. Most of my life I had been enduring and hardworking to get what I want, because I know perseverance is the key to what I want to be. Family is first on my list and I will always be a Marshall to mine. I am not violent and sometimes I am geeky. I am a nerd at my interests. I am Marshall.

I am Barney. I consider myself fun and loves to conjure tricks up my sleeve. I know that there are moments when I can be a jerk, but I can always give you a hand when I know you deserve them. I don't always take things seriously because sometimes it's easier to run away from responsibilities although I know that sooner I'll be hit in the face by some girl or someone. And although I am really out and flirty when I am single, I know that one look at "the One" and I'm all nuts. I'll do anything to get what I want, and make really great plans around it. I consider myself awesome, but there are times I just feel lame...and lonely...but then I look in the mirror and see myself being legendary and all, and suddenly I'm not lonely anymore. I am Barney.

They are more than fictional and tv characters to me. Because I found that somehow, I am not alone in my haggles. I found myself while laughing and crying at a tv series that meant a lot to me. They're more than a sitcom, they've helped me get along with life and everything around it.

The Perks of Seeing The Good in Goodbyes

I saw what happened. I felt it under my skin. But when all is said and done, I managed to find the good in goodbyes. It was nearly a month ago when I stumbled into a deep pit of losing someone. Unexpected, unknowing and harsh were the words that could mimic what happened. It was a perfect expiration date. Although it may sting and hurt for a while, I can guarantee now that I have found the good in this good bye.

Truth is, I have moved forward. I stepped forward. You knew all along that I was never the stagnant one. But that doesn't mean I have forgotten everything. I moved to another horizon. I moved to the exact improved version of me, I have been dying to show you before. This is all because of you.

I am not sad. I have been so happy to find out that I have all I need to regain back my confidence. Ironic as it may sound, but I am quite happy that you broke me apart. Because if it weren't for this, I wouldn't see how many hearts are still with me. I am thankful for the hearts that stayed. I thought that my life would be empty by now, since the dawn of you. But to my surprise, my life just went to a nitrous gear shift and escalated quickly. I have seen the better parts of my life. And that is all because of you.

I am not feeling any anger. My principle in my existence is simple. Never hold grudges for those who never needed them. I am not mad at you. I am not feeling any bitterness between us. I have seen the good with what we had. As what a legendary guy once said "It was a successful marriage (relationship) that happens to last for two years." Thanks Barney. But frankly, all I can see now are good memories of us. I ignored the bad ones in order for my life to continue light as the clouds. I hope you're in the same page with me. That is what I'm hoping, the security that you've seen my parts in the most good way possible and never in the cavities of my personality. I am happy just to be a part of the good stuff.

When love left me, I doubted people. I doubted the capability of relationships to work full time. But then I realized that I shouldn't doubt these things. Instead I should have faith with all these. I should believe in these things even when my whole generation fails to understand the idea of loving.
I realized now that love never leaves, it only leads. It leads us to the greater person we have inside. It unleashes all the good in life and people. In the end, love will always be the good in goodbyes. Love will provide you the reasons to see the brighter things in life; the silver linings.

Farewell, friend. The escape was real good, but reality knocked us up. I have seen the best parts. And that is all because of you.

We shall meet again, not in these suits but in a better and greater skin of the coming days. Good bye.
