Serendipity: a "happy accident" or "pleasant surprise". the accidental discovery of something pleasant
valuable or useful.
1st encounter:
I guess this would be the best word to define my feelings with that person. He was someone that i never liked at first sight, didn't imagine that we would have that connection, but along the way, I've managed to see some common interests (such as doodling or drawing, talking about anything without feeling awkward) or unexpectedly meet him in common places where i normally pass by or do my normal errands.
For me, i was happy to gain more friends and share common experiences and learn new things from them. But there was something in him that made me feel so important and wanted. I've found a new person that made me feel happy for a short span of time and a new kakulitan. When i talked to him, i felt so comfortable and we could talk anything under the sun (without feeling awkward) and I've felt that excitement and i was always happy everytime we had the time to talk because we were able to talk and share our experiences in life and share advices. But everything happened so fast and eventually vanished like a bubble because first of all, he was in a relationship, and secondly, i was not that stupid to gamble or force myself with a person and destroy a relationship. hahaha.
In the end, i was still thankful because that person made me realize that it wouldn't hurt to try to love again and feel that kind of feeling were you matter to the person that you like. Most importantly, he taught me to take chances.
2nd encounter:
She was my officemate, pretty girl and very famous because of her looks. I had never thought that we would be the best of friends and that she would be my hangout buddy after work to have a food trip or just talk.
She taught me a lot of things that made me realize to live my life to the fullest, face new challenges, taught me to be more adventurous and be more health conscious. hahaha. In a short span of time (literally like 6 months) we were like the best of friends, shared our own secrets, shared our laughter and goals in life. She was the very least person that I've thought would be my friend, but in the end she was my closest friend.
I guess in every places that you have been to, and experiences that I have encountered (may it be good or bad), everything really do happen for a reason. It will help you grow mentally and emotionally, and it will make you stronger and braver to face new challenges in the future. It has also taught me to accept every problems or blessings with optimism and to be more open about understanding people and things.
I can say that I'm not perfect, but i try to correct my mistakes from the past and learn new things to face the present and the future.
