I suppose its a bit ironic that I picked the name fragileheart and that it has stuck for so long, because in actuality I’m not that fragile at all. Sure, I get emotional but I’m not, and never will be, weak ((I don’t like tooting my own horn but I feel that an important part of blogging for me is reflecting on myself and being honest with who I am)). I’m not perfect, nor do I want to be. Perfect is boring. Making mistakes makes life exciting, though that doesn’t mean I make them on purpose.
I try to live my life without regrets… as soon as I realise there is something in my life that I regret, I would prefer to do something to rectify it – even if it feels like its too late. I wasn’t always this way though. I had to learn and change my attitude before I could even begin to embrace this outlook.
There are still so many things I want to work on about myself, but I feel blessed to have gotten to where I am ((even if I don’t have a ‘career’ to call my own yet)) at 27. I know I could have probably gotten here sooner if I wasn’t such a spoilt brat of a teen, but I don’t regret it at all. I’ve enjoyed my life thus far. I’m not rich, but I feel so lucky to have lived the life I have lived. And of course, I have my parents to thank for that.
I wouldn’t be half the person I am if it weren’t for my parents. We aren’t close in the sense that I tell my parents everything ((I have a friend who tells her parents all her boy troubles, I don’t do that)), but we’re close in that we do a lot of things together and we enjoy each other’s company. Having been in the kind of relationship with them where I hated them and they saw me as a nuisance, I am able to appreciate what we share now.
I’m also grateful for having such a bad history with boyfriends, because if it weren’t for those relationships ((or lack thereofs)) I wouldn’t be able to appreciate the amazing connection and relationship that I share with him. I also wouldn’t be able to know what it feels like when I’m on the giving end of the kind of behaviour that spells, ‘taking someone for granted’. I’m so lucky to have someone as strong ((in every sense of the word)), talented, brilliant, loving and loyal man in my life… and best yet, to call him mine!
As for the things I have to work on… believe it or not, I am horrible at keeping in touch with people. I know, I know… I’m on the internet so much, how could I be bad at keeping in touch with people? Easy, they don’t blog! I’m on the internet blog surfing, for the most part, so unless you have a blog – you probably won’t hear from me. You would think that sending an email is easy enough, but apparently… it is not.
A few other things I have to work on but that I won’t get into: money management, exercising, and doing what I say I’m going to do ((or just don’t say you’re going to to do something unless its already in the works))! I’m sure there are many more ((smaller)) things, but this is all I can think of right now!
My heart may have been fragile once, but its stronger than ever now.
Thanks to everyone who gave me such warm well wishes on my birthday, you guys have no idea how positive of an impact you all make on my life and I love you all for it!
How do you grow?

It’s good to know that it’s not the real you 
So you want to know more about me? Aside from "fragileheart", I'm also known as Reg, or Reggy. I'm Canadian by passport, and Filipino-Chinese by blood but I've always felt a person of the world. With 28 years of 'life' under my belt, I know better than to think that I know everything there is to know in the world - but I still have my opinions.
You have certainly come a long way from when we first met on the web way way back where I can’t even remember.
I’m glad things are turning around for you. It all comes with AGE!
