Ocean of Opinions

For the past few weeks, I've been talking/chatting to a few good people for a short span of time. Their words just kept on going on my mind for some time now. So I decided to immortalize and share these to you.

Nawa'y kapulutan niyo ng aral. :)

On Zodiacs:

chigo adona: it's not that zodiacs are important. pero interested lang sana ako sa kaugalian minsan na sinasabi.
Binibini: haha
Binibini: know people by who they are.. not by templates of signs
chigo adona: indeed. oo nga noh.

On Relationships:

Charles Benson: u have to marry a genuine un blemished and innocent lady.
Charles Benson: pray for that.
chigo adona: yes pa i will.
Charles Benson: hindi ako naniniwala sa modernity of women.
Charles Benson: cguro sa remote place in the Phil.
Charles Benson: kaya lang baka babaeng unggoy naman yun.
chigo adona: hahahaha! perhaps. haha!
Charles Benson: joke lang anak, di baleng di maganda basta maganda ang kalooban, at mamahalin ka forever.
Charles Benson: masarap ang may minamahal, pero mas masarap ang pareho kayong nag mamahalan.
Charles Benson: love is only love when both individuals share the love for each other.
Charles Benson: one way love is expensive financially speaking.
Charles Benson: talo ka dyan sa ganyang love affair.
Charles Benson: pero when someone is in love, he is blind. everything seems possible, up to the point of stealing.
Charles Benson: addicted to love so to speak and obsession is what they call it.
Charles Benson: u like old fashion ladies?
chigo adona: yes pa. i know that pa. im not a fan of Francisco Balagtas' concept of Love. which goes by "hahamakin ang lahat, maging akin ka lamang." I don't believe in that crap. because, hindi ko po kayang hamakin ang Diyos, para lang sa babae. Hindi ko po kayang hamakin ang mga magulang ko para lang sa isang babae.
Charles Benson: well, you are a normal and intelligent person because of that reasoning.
Charles Benson: that is being healthy anak.
Charles Benson: bravo! i believe u.
Charles Benson: i have been in that situation before, i had bee so stupid, pero di naman hinamak ang dyos at mga magulang ko.
Charles Benson: i cant do that.
Charles Benson: pero dumadating sa punto na when u love someone, para bang ang lakas ng loob mong gawin ang mga hindi tama.
Charles Benson: prayer time anak c u later. bye. balik ako at ikaw rin ok?
chigo adona: bye pa! i love you! log off na po ako.
Charles Benson: love u too very much.
chigo adona: take care your health po!
Charles Benson: yes anak u too.

On Generation Nation:

laurene: sadly, in my generation--i don't know with you kasi i think your generation is much better than mine--people conclude everything considered as "deep" or plainly pinagisipan to be "nosebleed" and "talino mo naman!"
chigo adona: oo nga noh. i do noticed that in this generation. siguro this generation of yours was too tired to grasp things on their minds and tend to not complicate things. ?
laurene: no, i don't think so. i think they're just too interested in having relationships via text to care. so by default, they chose to be stupid, they choose to not use their heads
chigo adona: hmm.. give them a chance, ms.laurene. give them a fighting chance and see how this will goes.
laurene: unlike in your generation, they aren't passive. i think they're just like that because they already know. they already figured things out
chigo adona: or we've been on that kind of generation before, i guess?
laurene: pardon?
laurene: i didn't get that.
chigo adona: parang nanggaling na kami sa ganiyang attitude and suddenly, we grew up with that kind of personality, have matured.
laurene: siguro nga. and it just so happens that merong stuck sa "teenager" phase?

On Contentment+Happiness=?:

chigo adona: what is happiness?
Addie Mendoza: whaaat?
Addie Mendoza: uhm.
Addie Mendoza: happ1ness 1s c0ntentment?
Addie Mendoza: when y0u kn0w y0ur sat1sf1ed, and y0u kn0w y0u d0n’t need anyth1ng else
chigo adona: hmm... so would it be possible to be contented but not happy?
Addie Mendoza: n0
Addie Mendoza: 1 th1nk
Addie Mendoza: y0u’ll 0nly be happy 1f y0u’re c0ntented eh.. when y0u’re unhappy, y0u l0ng f0r s0meth1ng..
Addie Mendoza: d1ba?
Addie Mendoza: makes sense t0 me
chigo adona: that's a good point. hhmm.. sige i'll ask you.. what will be that certain thing na makakapag pa kontento sayo?
Addie Mendoza: that’s s0meth1ng 1 d0nt kn0w
Addie Mendoza: 1 th1nk n0 0ne ever kn0ws
chigo adona: hmm.. so what will be that certain thing na makakapag pa ligaya sayo?
Addie Mendoza: that’s why l0ts 0f pe0ple are always unhappy
Addie Mendoza: f00d

On Choosing Wrong but Happy, Right yet Sad:

chigo adona: hmm.. maiba tayo.. let's go back to humanities 101.. philosophical questions.. would you rather be wrong but happy or right yet sad? and why?
kay moreno: wrong but happy. risky na ko ngayon eh. hehe. i would rather experiment on doing something na nageenjoy naman ako kesa magstick ako sa isang bagay na hindi ko naman gusto.
