A Lifeful of Melodies

 
            â€śLife is a song, sing it”. Music is not only known for its sound, but the message it conveys. Many of us have considered it as the only thing that understands you in any emotional or mental state you are in. You get to live in your own little world where you get to escape from reality for once in a while. I do believe that life is indeed a song. The meaning of life is to find your voice. You explore the world. You experience joy, sadness, anger, fear and more along your journey finding this voice of yours. You get to make your own soundtrack in life. We can all agree that music can be an inspiration in life. Music, it is the language of the heart. Music, it has helped me through countless battles in our world. It helped me understand more about reality. Whether you are at your worst of the darkest days or at your brightest of the best, music can be the only thing that will stay no matter the cost. Although we can never avoid toxic people whom think that this “voice” we talk about is just weird. A lot of people think that I’m weird. You heard me, weird! I may be weird, but at least I am who I am today. Yeah, that’s me, weird! And I cannot deny it. I am like this “depressed music freak” walking here and there, not in the fact that I look like one but only in weirdness. Is there such a word like this? Yes? No? I really do not know…

 

            Yes that’s right, me being “weird” again! But right now let’s get straight to the point, shall we? I am Sharalindsay Navarro Cancio, but I would prefer you to call me Arah and/or Lex. A normal 16 year old, born on the 8th of September 2005 at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, Jeddah, K.S.A.. I am the youngest child of Mr. Marlon Ines Cancio and Mrs. Benilda Navarro Cancio. I have three older siblings whom are Maria Irenea C. Azurin, Peter Jhosua N. Cancio and Marvin N. Cancio. I currently live at Brgy. Mira, Bantay, Ilocos Sur. I study at Ilocos Sur National High School as a 10th grader and has the goal of making my way to becoming a successful doctor… Hmm, well it is quite already obvious that I have the passion for music and it somehow makes me forget the things around me. You can say that I am an ambivert and I have trust issues. I am at ease that I get to know music in
expressing who I am. I also find the color black appealing, which somehow became my favorite color, it reflects my personality, and I am also fond of wearing jackets. I wear them everywhere I go and even if the weathers hot. I really don’t feel comfortable without my jacket, that’s why I take my jacket wherever I go, and for some reason I don’t know how and why I got attached to these characteristics. Its just who I really am. Life has been rough ever since childhood. Just recalling it makes me want to be more of the villain. Good thing that I have met the people whom will always be there for me no matter, it no other than my friends. I couldn’t be more thankful for them to arrive at a time I was at the brink of  my “voice” to be gone.

            “Life is like a broken record”. This used to be my philosophy, but as I progress in life, I realize that there can be good in this world of sin. Ever since I learnt how to value the meaning of music, I then sought to find my voice and I will never give up on what I believe in. I do not care how cruel the world will treat me and how much people will degrade me, for I will sing myself to victory all through to the end. This is where I was meant to be, singing to this melody!

A Brighter Tomorrow Resides Beyond the Sorrow

Image
               Every child is special. Childhood is known to be an important part of a person’s life. All of us have been through that timeline and many more will. It is a time wherein you get to be innocent and have fun without a care in the world. Life as a child was like unicorns and rainbows. Although not all of the children get the chance to be “free” and “innocent” nor have a life filled with “unicorns and rainbows”. Many even had to set their dreams aside to work and earn money for a living, just to help their family. This wasn’t supposed to happen for we all know that a child has their right to learn and not to work nor earn.                     A child needs to be educated, sheltered, fed, cared for and loved. It is their right and a parents’ responsibility to do so. To serve and provide for a child is a must, or I should say a duty to fulfill. We all know that a child depe...

Another Chapter of My Life Unfolds

Image
            “New Year, New Me”. I can’t say that this year, there will be a new me. This is because there will never be a new me but I guarantee you, that there will definitely be an upgraded version of me! Doesn’t that sound better? Its like a game, wherein you get to be you and level up in every fight, or I should say, “chapter” in your life.               I am more than sure that this year will be another rough ride for us and that’s no lie. Life isn’t fair and we know that. But despite of that saying, we still ought to live our lives to its outmost best. Easier said than done, am I right? but what’s more important is that we get to see another year. We get to enjoy our life. Despite the cruelty, we still find ways to address positivity to the world and restore the faith in humanity.               For ...

Amidst This Crisis, Let The Essence of Christmas Prosper

Image
               “It’s the most wonderful time of the year~”, that’s what that one song said. It is obvious that this is another Christmas Celebration during an ongoing pandemic wherein people aren’t that fond of. Although, that doesn’t stop us on giving off positive vibes during this once a year of a season. We all know that the Christmas season is nothing new to us, but due to the pandemic, it has become quite a hassle. This is a challenge for all of us to overcome.   As of my opinion, this Christmas season, I have a feeling that it won’t be so bad and I have high hopes for that. I mean, the reason we celebrate such an event is because it’s the birthday of Papa Jesus and we are looking forward to another year of glimmer. I get that this year was a rough ride for the most of us. We had our ups and downs, we had our outmost joyous and even the darkest days of our lives. Words cannot describe how much we’ve been through this year, am ...
