I do not really wonder how the people from my past are doing.
I've moved on.
Past meaning those people that I do not have any relationship with anymore, and that includes friends, relatives and even family members that I do not even have friendship with.
Those relationships were broken, and there's no need to fix them.
On Monday, I got a private message from a cousin about a family member that I have been estranged for over 5 years.
I don't really think there was a need for that message, but I answered.
"He's someone I used to know but have no relationship with anymore."
I was told by someone that I was so maldita.
Was I mean?
Was that rude?
Did I say something naughty?
Or was I a bitch for being honest?
I begged for that family member to stay, because if we keep on being estranged we might get used to not being present in each other's life.
His last messages were hurtful. He said that my sending him a message disturbed their peace. Along with that were "fuck yous."
I did not deserve those words but I respected his decision.
What I realized when he left was that he was right about the peace part, and that I am peaceful too without him.
I don't hate him. That's a waste of my energy. In fact, when he ended our relationship, I considered it as a blessing in disguise.
I wish him well and his family.
But I don't think I can offer any friendship anymore.
I love myself, and I am at peace.
I am in my 50s, and I am really passionate about being true.
So was I being maldita?

I can understand your concern over the word madilta. You are just being wise to let go and move on. I did that recently to many people and even removed over 1000 from my Facebook list. They didn't hurt or offend me but I had to do soul cleansing and stay around those with good vibes..
I had a long dispute with my brother for over a decade. The moment I decided to really forgive and forget, he came back to me sincerely after seeing how sick I am. I was amazed how the universe works.
Thank you very much for always being there to cheer me up Lili. I truly appreciate your kindness. May God Bless You and your family always 💕💕💕💕

There is no comments section at your Shroom Adobo. So I am writing here. 😂
I really love many Filipino exotic dishes and desserts which have unique tastes of their own. I was very privileged to stay in Makati for a week and explored the Greenbelt area to try all the heavenly food. What surprises me a bit is that Tagalog has so many similar words with our Malay words but not the food or culture! Interesting! Mabuhay!
