What's in a surname?
 
       I am a Filipina. I am married for more than two years now. Once married, most women in my country change their respective surnames to that of their husbands.

          For example, my full maiden name is Rizza Carina Augusto Malingin.  My husband’s name is Edgardo Bojos Luardo Jr. Thus, if I were to follow this common practice, when we got married, I would have already used the name “Rizza Carina Malingin Luardo”.

          But I wanted to retain the surname of my late beloved father (“Malingin”) and at the same time carry my husband’s surname (“Luardo”). Thus, instead of using “Rizza Carina Malingin Luardo,” I opted to use Rizza Carina Augusto Malingin-Luardo.

LOVE.

That's all that matters.

But how can you love someone without wanting to be loved in return?

I know it should not work like that and it hurts.

Or at the end of the day, you can ask "Is it really love?"

Sometimes because it is intricate you do not know where to draw the line. 

It's confusing.

But this is how I measure it:

You are sad if everything is turning upside down, that's love.

hmmm... Whatever! What I know is, love is

ALL THAT MATTERS. ;)
