Betrayal and Gratitude
By Virginia Jasmin Pasalo
YEARS ago, I have trusted a lot of people I considered friends. They didn’t have to earn my trust, I just gave it to them, without conditions. Some fail this trust along the way, but I gave this trust over and over, a chance to redeem itself. I am witness to some of the redemption, but they were few. Still I trust. The betrayal of trust is not a reason to stop trusting. Unless you value the person so much to go through the process of developing and nurturing trust to take root in someone’s being, the best option to take when betrayed is to move away, as far away as possible, and from this vantage point, an appreciation of someone else’s unique becoming may offer explanations for the betrayal of a relationship, and possibly understanding.
There is always a reason for people happening in our lives. Some give us love. Some connect to higher goals. Some teach us lessons. To me, as much as those who love us, those who hurt us are most valuable, because they teach us how to cope. They make us find courage within. They make us realize who we are at our lowest point, in our barest, most vulnerable emotions. They force us to look at ourselves, move through the pain of self-knowing and recover our identity and defining qualities which may have been lost or subsumed in another through the course of a relationship. The experience cuts deep in ways that plain-looking diamonds are shaped and transformed into beautiful gems, giving polish and symmetry to what were once rough edges.
There is no reason to curse. There is karma. Gratitude is the only gesture for the chance to become a precious stone. That is the way of the Anunnaki.
Salamat
Salamat, animal
Salamat ta asabat ta ka’d dalan
abalaan ko agmoak usilan
o nengnengen ya nakan
Balet atiwel ka manayan aso
diad nengneng mo, amin nakan
pati ikol mo uusilan mon kanen
siguradon agmo gabay su unsegep ed tawen
diad tawen, ag ka makapangan
anggapoý nakan
ta saray anghel naksel iran lanang
ed liwawa na bitewen
Thank you
Thank you, beast
Thank you, that I met you on the street
i thought you will not run after me
or look at me as something you can eat
But you are a mad dog indeed
in your eyes, everything can be eaten
you run after your own tail to eat it
for sure you will not want to enter heaven
in heaven, you will not be able to eat
there is nothing to eat
because the angels are always full
with the brightness of the stars
