It was truly a Merry Christmas yesterday.

Yesterday being Christmas, I was given the option to take the day off from work or go on Half Day but since I had nothing better to do at home, (itutulog ko na naman ang lahat) and most people in the office wanted to take the day off, I opted to stay. But in the middle of the day, M called again. I didn’t answer the call at first but the call left me with confused thoughts as to why call when it was clear to me that we broke off already? Apparently, I was mistaken. Everything was just a result of my twisted paranoid mind.

But my situation made me think. I know I was right. I know I didn’t go overboard. I know I wasn’t acting out. I KNOW I AM RIGHT DAMMIT!  But when I cooled my heels, I asked myself. “Did I want to be right? Or did I want to be happy”.  Siyempre happy di ba? Deep in my heart I knew that I did not want to waste more time. I wanted to be happy. We talked about what happened and cleared out things. I knew I didn’t lose anything by letting it pass. My pride wasn’t hurt.

For Christmas Dinner, Eric, myself and M feasted on spaghetti and pan de sal. It was not much but it meant a lot to me. M and I spent two Christmases 400 kms away from each other before. This was my first Christmas with M. Happy ang Christmas ko.

What about you? Would you rather be right or would you rather be happy?
