A Lovely Heart

Let me tell you about this certain person. He has been bugging my head these days and actually "disturbing" my mind.

I must admit that I got a huge crush on him. As in define huge and that is how I feel for him. But he is just so unlike the "others" who went before. He is just so simply...different.

Different in a sense that he is not really my type. I think I am five to six years older than him or even more. If I met him early in my life, he would not even get my attention nor even become a prospect crush. He is not tall, not chinky-eyed, not really my type. For me he is only just a decent-looking guy who hangs around with decent-looking people.

But he caught me. How? For he caught my brother too. Not in the real sense of catching nor figuratively homosexual but caught as in he befriended my youngest brother amidst the huge crowd and to think my brother was relatively and practically new in that place. I have never met someone in my life personally who has that kind of sensitive and approachable nature except him. I was not smitten on the spot but as his and my brother's relationship progressed, (by the way, you might be confused now as to what kind of relationship do they have,let me clarify; he is my brother's leader in church) I have started to see his lovely and beautiful qualities no man within my sphere of acquaintances has ever shown. His is a kind nature, a friendly and considerate one without the benefits of popularity. He is of a quiet aura, not intimidating but actually soothing. He always has a smile ready to generously give to anyone who comes his way.

Who wouldn't love that kind of guy? That kind of person? In this world of pretense filled with egomaniacs and chauvinist pigs, his presence is an exceptional relief. His life is one good example of humility, of a true and loving spirit inspired by God, Himself.

My mother loves him. She does. I see how she perks up each time his name is being mentioned. And I got a big crush on him too. But we are age apart. And I think he does not mind that I exist. Yet he does not know that he is also one source of inspiration for me to become a better woman and a better person.

It is not everyday that you meet someone whom you could both respect and admire so much without being a superstar. But he is a star in his own right because of his lovely heart. And between Ben Affleck, Bae Yung Jun and him, I will still choose him even if the former two are so madly and crazy in love with me. Hehehehe...(^^,)
