Muntikatha 7: Bituin


May mga gabing tila’y walang katapusan, na parang hindi na nito papayagan ang araw na batiin tayo ng magandang umaga.

Huwag kang mag-alala.

Kahit na malayo at di pansinin, naroon ang mga bituin na gagabay sayo buong gabi. Tumiin ka sa itaas. Andyan lamang sila.

 

English Translation:

There are nights that seem endless, as if the night sky would not allow the sun to greet us good morning.

Do not worry.

There are stars, although distant and unnoticeable, that will guide you through the night. Look up. They are there.

 

Author’s Notes:

1. This prompt list is from Putimbulak on Twitter. I have permission from him to take this out of Twitter as I wish to do the prompt challenge here instead. (You may either click on the image or the link above to be redirected to his page.)

2. This particular muntikatha (microfiction) piece was written yesterday. I originally intended to post it in the morning but unfortunately, my Internet connection won’t hold.

3. I added an English translation for our foreign readers.
