A Night of Love

Last Saturday (4 August 2012) I and my super friend Shaye, had the chance to watch the concert of one of the Philippines' premier acoustic bands, Side A. It was a night of love indeed. We arrived at the venue at 6.00 P.M. We waited for like almost 3 hours before the concert started. There! when the band started to play their first song, and when I finally heard the voice of my ever favorite singer, Joey G. LIVE at that, everything started to feel like surreal. I only muttered to myself, after 3 hours of waiting, It was after all, "worth the wait". :-)

I am always a fan of SIDE A since high school. What I admire about the band is that the melody of their songs and the lyrics can really melt anyone's heart. In my case, their songs simply sweep me off my feet! Their band, among all the other acoustic bands in the Phils. has managed to keep their group in tact through the years. Amazing indeed!

Everyone in the audience that night felt the same... Everyone felt love because Side A made that night so special through their timeless hits, and so love was just absolutely in the air. The lovers in the crowd felt all the more in love as they hold hands and whisper sweet nothings to each other. I and my friend just can't help but say "hayyys" to each other. :D It's like saying, "oh how good it is to be in love." Reality bites, we both are not in a relationship with anyone. Well, with what happened in the past---broken promises and failed attempts to be happy, falling in love I guess, has long been forgotten. But at that moment, how incredible it is to realize that a simple song, can actually transport you to that moment, --- that moment, when love is pristine, when love is real.

That night will forever leave a mark in my heart. As I went home, thoughts came crashing through my head. I asked myself, if given the right circumstances, and with that one "right" person, will I be ready to take a chance and fall in love again? It's like I hear my heart speak telling me, "despite what I (the heart) had been through, with all the pain, and despite my brokenness, only love can make things right, because only love can fill this emptiness. Never deprive yourself to be happy when the right time comes because, love, among any other things, can make life, truly worthwhile. When that time comes, I will tell you. So listen to me more intently, never hurry, and be more patient." Whooah! Thank you heart!!! heeheehee :D Yes.

There is always a time for everything. A time to cry, a time to smile, a time to be happy, and a time for all these things! A time to be in love... once again. 

Here are some pictures I took in the event, not in good quality though since I was quite far from the stage.Anyway, it is the moment that counts. heehee :-)
