our windy summer


This is the condition of the sea at 6:00 in the morning before we start sailing for 2 hours. it was a great feeling and i stayed most of the time in front of the bangka. on our way there, i have been constantly praying that the sun will come out in time for our arrival.
I met new friends. i even met a priest, a whole family were there. all sorts of people and most of them are good ones. we stayed in a resort with 8-door rooms and i stayed in a room with three of my friends. the food was great. superb actually that not even a single shot of photo was taken because its really inviting. The owner, Aling Linda, was very humble and accommodating. If it wasn't for the food, i would say that that vacation sucks. But she and her staff did a great job. I enjoyed my friends', old and new, company. We drink, we laughed and some even cried. 



As we hop from one island to another, i realized how smart God is to making this beautiful sceneries and how lucky we are to see His creations. I couldn't believe that we have all been travelling in an almost endless sea and with much more beauties in the other side.





The sand bar is one of the highlighted features in Caramoan Island featuring a low-level sea water at the middle of the sea. Nipa huts was made at the top of the fine white sand.

If there's one thing that i learned from this trip is that no matter how bad the things can be, we can always make ourselves happy. It will always depend on how we look at it. There was rain when we get there, the wind was unstoppable, but we still enjoyed the trip. It was a bit disappointing not to see the other side of Caramoan, but hey! its one reason to go back, right?

Do not frown when things go wrong. Do not curse when things fall apart. We are way too better than that. Enjoy life! Dive in! :)

nothingness

Only when you're alone, you can find peace. That's what many philosophers say. Not that i don't believe in them, but i guess even in the midst of a turmoil you can feel the tranquility when you really have it. Take note...when you have it.. not when you need it. I am single. That's one admission i have never said for a long time for a lot of reasons and that includes complications in my relationships. But surprisingly, i am satisfied with what i have now. i am not seeking for more and i am not anxious of knowing what will i be doing the next day because i am bored and trying to kill the boredom by having coffee with some friends whom you sometimes feel that they're just using you because they also feel the same way. Confusing? nevermind. that's not the point of this blog, anyway. All i am saying is there will be a point in your life that you will stop wanting everything because you will realize that its better to have nothing and be happy with it than have everything yet you still crave for more.

i will continue this later and hoping that i still have the same aura.
