Writing Prose: An Effect of Stress While Writing My Thesis

I'm so stressed out writing my thesis! Kung anu-ano na lang ang naiisip ko. Ngunit katwa! Pasasalamat pa rin ang binibigkas kong mga salita. Tila may grasya pa ring nadarama... 30 January 2006 / 6:12 p.m.

amidst the lack and longing,
of hopes, unfulfilled,
we look to stars a-shinin',
on nights the wind is still.

we learn to say "i'm sorry,"
we say "yes, i do forgive."
we learn to say god loves us,
for all the gifts he gives.

and when we say "i thank you,"
for all the years fulfilled,
we also say "i love you."
we walk on paths we build.
