A Day With The Ocean


To swim away...

and beyond!

Till moon rise.

When The Sky Turned Orange

It was cloudy around this planet 
when the moon was full and pink. 
I tried to look up 
but saw only the clouds 
that covered that moon 
that could have been bright on those nights. 

Grabbing photos is not my style 
nor blaming the weather 
just because I wanted my beautiful view. 

I will also not say that I stole this shot. Because I never did. 
It is just that. 
That fine day when the sky, 
the sun, and the clouds 
just did what should be. 
Just what is. 
Pure. Clear. Beautiful.

Thank you for the photo.

I mean, thank you for the real thing.

Nine Lives

Do you know how many lives one can have? 

The first time i almost lost it was when i was driving on an elbow downhill by the giant turbines. 

The second time was when i thought i lost them. 

The third time was every time i hit 160/110 semi-paralyzed at the emergency rooms of some hospitals. 

The fourth, was when people tried to kill my spirit. 

The fifth was everytime i thought i feared to be alone in my solo travels. 

The sixth was each time a truck tries to steal my lane at the highway's curve or some car trying to race me and challenge my driving stunts by the zigzags. 

The seventh was when i thought i had nothing.

The eighth is when i die seeing hills and islands and oceans, and sunrises and moonrises. 

But I never die even if they try to steal it. Another life amazingly lingers to what is. 

This wonderful breeze that i breathe now is heaven on earth. And hey, my heart is pretty much alive on my 9th.

Solo Joyride

My phones died the night before I left. 

It was like telling me to 'smell the flowers' while i had that roadtrip, driving solo. or maybe breathe the seabreeze and the fresh air. 




The last thing i was able to do before i drove straight 12 hours was to inform only one person that i will be driving. 

My new phone was not charging and i accidentally left my camera on the table before i left home. I was able to take very few photos before my new phone died. It was weird. But those scenes are marked in my mind. 

Forever.

China: When I Walked The Great Wall


In February 2013, I went to Beijing.
To walk The Great Wall of China.
In Mutianyu.
And I was happy.

Thailand: Prayed in the Temples of Bangkok

When all you do in Bangkok is 
wonder at how their temples were intricately built.
And pray.
