is not only beautiful, but cute and even nice.
"Mag-isa ka lang na itinuturing kong maganda sa paningin ko, sinta. Kaya't
huwag ka nang magselos sapagkat wala nang makakakuha ng puso ko
dahil nasa iyo na ito"
Tadhana

You can't talk about words with powerful meaning without talking
about your fate. The noun "tadhana" is a Tagalog word showing

You know those butterflies you feel in your stomach when you see

init ng mga ito"
