where is this sun you speak of?

After how many years of hoping for a change of lifestyle, I can finally say that I have achieved it now. Well, maybe, somehow. I don't know how it started -- no specific time and date, not even any magical moment -- but I can definitely differentiate the then and now . No, I had no brutal experiences but I sure had so many nights wasted on feeling alone and useless. It does help to let yourself get lost for a while because you always end up trying to find the best way to go and you somehow get to know yourself even more. Though there is no assurance if you end up somewhere all-things-happy, life does not evolve because of happiness alone anyway. There are always opposite sides in every thing in this world. Honestly, though I know things are a little bit different for the better, I still feel the same way but I learned how to deal with it. It's true that when you get older, you get wiser. That teenage angst will vanish in just a snap if you let it slip away and move furt...

I want to write a little throwback from 5 months ago when I, together with my family, went to Philippine Eagle Center. It was a day after Christmas when we decided to go there after having breakfast. The last time I visited the place was from a field trip in grade school -- I don't even remember what specific grade I was in. Anyway, here are some of the photos I took:    The first captive-bred Philippine Eagle is Pag-asa (Hope) and is now 22 years old. I was not able to take a photo of Pag-asa because it was hiding somewhere in its cage. The photo above is one of the young eagles in the Center.  The eagle from the photo above is Scout Binay , named after the Vice President of the Philippines, Jejomar Binay. He adopted Scout Binay and turned over it to The Philippine Eagle Center. Estuarine Crocodile It was great seeing a lot of eagles that day but the highlight of my stay there were the monkeys! I think we stared lon...

My perception of life has changed over the years. When I was a little kid, I did not think about the grandeur of life in general. All I knew was that I am able to use my senses, able to feel a lot of emotions, and able to imagine things from the books I read. I was looking at what's already there and maneuvered my life around them. All those things mattered most to me at some point, for sure. But now, when I look back from those days, I realize how impressive life is. How big it is that all those things that mattered to me when I was a kid meant so little now like a mere period. And at some point, they don't matter at all. Nothing has changed much but things get more challenging and exciting -- my imagination kicks in once in a while and create something from it, I have a whirlwind of emotion every single day which pushes me to make something out of it (no matter what kind of emotion it is), I am using my senses as much as I can knowing that someday they will all be gone ...
