a glimpse on my cranium…

I feel a little decapitated today. I feel weak. I know that writing is my first love and it always has been. It is one of the skills I possess that makes me so grateful to have. I mean, almost everybody has the talent to entertain people through their singing, dancing and acting etc. But only a few lucky ones were given the skill to entertain, awe and smite people through their hands, just by writing. So I feel so lucky.

But despite all of that, I feel so powerless and weak. I feel like we are a pack of good soldiers without any ammunition. I feel that this talent I possess, as well as others, were like neglected. To tell you honestly, I know a lot of people who writes well, majority of them I know personally. But I feel that we have been decapitated by the public. I feel that the productive ideas that we would like to impart to the world were thrown down the drain mainly because- NOT EVERYBODY LIKES TO READ. I feel like I’m losing the will to write wonderful and ugly things about this world because I know I can write them beautifully and entertainingly but no one will read it because NOT EVERYBODY LIKES TO READ.

I mean, I’m not saying that I wanted everybody to be like me who finds pleasure in reading cause I know that we are all different and others find it boring. But really, I feel pity for those people. EXTREME Pity. Just like what one of my favorite writers, Bob Ong, said: ” Kawawa naman ang isang taong wala man lang ni isang paboriton libro”. Likewise, I feel pity to those who don’t read. WHY? Because they are intentionally depriving themselves the freebie of gaining knowledge just by reading. They are missing out on a lot of adventures that books, texts and selections can give them. They are missing out a LOT.

So if you wouldn’t take this the wrong way, my dear reader, why don;t you and I take a time off our schedules to read a little? It wouldn’t hurt I tell you. And besides, did you know that we acquire only 30% of our knowledge inside the four corners of the classroom? Therefore, I propose that maybe reading could sufficiently supply you even just a little portion of that missing 70%.

Read. Read. Read.

It wouldn’t hurt.

It feels so good.

So if your interested, just buzz me back and I’ll give you links to the blogs of my favorite co-bloggers who writes so well. It would be so worth it. Or you can text me and I could lend you some Bob Ong books. Or others. Di ko naman kayo papahiramin ng non-fiction no! Boring kaya yun. Haha.

Enjoy, guys.

I really wanna help this cluster explore the so so so many things it’s missing out on because of so much lakwatsa. Hey, don’t be mad, i’m not one to preach, I’m a true blooded lakwatsera too. But, sabi nga ni sir Baldago: Gawing makabuluhan ang bawat laboy. Kada laktwatsa dapat may natututunan.
