Patty Love!! (not the burger:)

I'm so happeeee! Ms. Patty Laurel replied to my tweet:) I've sent a few others before but I didn't get any reply until I realized recently that my tweets were private:(...but putting all that in the past, I'm so thrilled to see her feedback because I've really been following her intently since last year. I came across her blog in the web one random afternoon because she was trending, and I fell in love with it at first sight and I never missed a post ever since. There was a time when I even signed in daily to check on updates on her blog, I'm really just such a loyal reader and fan : ) So to preserve this moment, here's a copy of our very short, yet heartwarming (for me at least) tweet exchange..

I felt bad (on a fan level) when I learned that she and Atom Araullo broke up recently. Their mature relationship was an inspiration to many, and four years, in an outsider's point of view, could be quite a waste. But I have no right to meddle, or even ask the question why; my feelings are my own, but so is their relationship. If I ever got anything from it, it was the stronger understanding that I did not become a loyal follower of pattylaurel because she was with Atom. Their relationship inspired me, but the persons involved are inspiring as well as individuals. Good things do come to an end, but it's always an opportunity to have something better, always with the hope that it's meant to last...

But more than being a loyal follower of her Oooh..Lala- which may be a guilty pleasure at times but certainly not a waste of my time (I've read it all, as in I backtracked on all her posts starting with the very first one), her influence to me has a greater, deeper, and more personal root because it was after reading some of her posts actually that I began to consider creating my own blog. I can't accurately quote her now because pattylaurel.blogspot.com is already closed for my referral, but what she said was something like 'such happiness/wonderful emotions were too precious to be bottled up inside'...In my case, I'm not yet too comfortable with sharing my stories/feelings/beliefs even to my friends and family but slowly, people are discovering my blog even without telling them about it. And I've just recently added it on my twitter profile because I'm promoting a website, and more because I don't have followers anyway..loser me..haha..but when I gather enough guts one day, I'll always have the -Patty Laurel- as my inspiration:) Thank you Miss Patty for sharing pieces of your mind, and your life with random people like me. I've always believed that coming across your blog and somehow knowing you through your stories, enough to consider you as one of my role models, was all part of the Big Guy's plan for me:) meow
