I was staring at the sunset/guitar picture on some posts below and I felt a longing.

It felt like the picture is still alive to me. As if it'll damage my eyes if I look at the sun long enough ...

When I went to Boracay I was out to squeeze out all the fun I could muster, take in the scents and sounds, and breathe the lights and sights through my eyes.

When I went to Palawan I was out to take on something new and have never seen before. I was not disappointed.

When I went to Sagada I was out to rediscover serenity that can only be brought about by untainted air and a placid mind.

When I went to Cebu I was out to dare an adventure I have never dreamed of doing, and experience being with beautiful people (in heart, hehe).

In each of them, I wanted to look at the stars on a clear night sky, let it remind me that I am here, I am now, I am a part of a big thing I can never comprehend. And that all my troubles are really just a teeny-tiny thing, almost insignificant, to a universe that is here before I was born and will still be here long after I'm gone.

I wanted to show this world one big spark, a shout that I was here, I lived, I existed, and that I am part of the flaming cinders of a spectacular firework.

The world is good. Yeah, I want to repeatedly remind myself of that through sunsets and beer and the over all feeling of being alive.



(btw, the pic and concept was taken by Luther Van Floss so as to give credit to whom it is due)


Might be planning another Palawan trip later this year! Stay tuned!
