Still Standing

Still Standing

In Boracay, there’s a bar stint called ‘Still Standing’. The main idea is you finished drinking all 15 concoctions liquors and be able to stand up. These concoctions, mind you, hits you really hard. So, either you’re a seasoned drinker or your stomach is made of lead to survive this one.

I suddenly remembered about this yesterday. I have a friend that had undergone a lot of trouble. She was bombed with problems, one after another. Definitely, she did not move out of that phase unscathed. But she definitely picked up the worthy pieces, emerges heads up and I dare say prettier. As what a lot of people say, life is not always wonderful. Life is a phase of ups and downs. If you fall, the most important thing you do, is that you must stand up. It may took a while, but stand up. The 15 concoctions is no match for the ordeal she went to, but now as she celebrates her 25th birthday, glad to say, she is still standing.

So, for chili A, get those glasses filled up and lifted up. Cheers!
