Calling it quits. . .

Myke and I have decided to call it quits, finally.

I guess I've always known that I my future lies with my family. Being the youngest, people always get the impression that I grew up spoiled and pampered. On the contrary, being the youngest has caused much pressure on me. My parents are now both in their 70's, I live only to serve them. I have a sister who emotionally depends on me. I once believed my mission was only to my family. Perhaps I was right.

When Myke entered my life, I thought maybe something bigger was in store for me. Perhaps I will not grow old and die alone afterall. Perhaps I have a bigger responsibility to serve. Believe it or not I used to make my niece promise me that she'll let me crash in her big shiny mansion when I grow old and wrinkled. With Myke, everything in my life changed.

*Sigh* Anyway, I'll elaborate more on this some other day. I guess my mind is still too jumbled up to really put into words exactly what I feel.

Whatever happens, I wish you would always pray for both Myke's and my own happiness.
