MUST LOVE SUNSETS

0 comments
For a lot of people working in the metro, sunrise is one big sign that we have to get our ass up to go to that not-so-homey place called work (unless you have passion for your work, of course). It is that wake up call, which for busy people like me and perhaps you, may dread especially on Mondays. And like a lot of people, I prefer to tuck myself in bed longer then prep up for work EVERY single morning.

And when it comes to sunset? Well, it is nature's gesture to mean time to stop anything job-related and rest your tired body from the whole day of work. So what we do is pack up all our stuff, ride the jeepney, hail a cab or drive a car and get home swiftly.

So from our busy day prepping for work in the morning and shutting down everything before evening comes, we tend to miss the AWESOMENESS of the SUN.

Hence, whenever I travel, I usually take my time being taken aback by THE amazing "center of the universe". I mostly do not feel bad waking up in the morning for the sunrise and DEFINITELY do take all the chances just to watch the sunset. If there is a movie MUST LOVE DOGS, my movie must be MUST LOVE SUNSETS. :)

So here are some of the lovely sunset sceneries I was able to capture or copy from Janie's cam. These photos are depictions of moments I have taken the time off from anything mechanical and be swept away by the wonderful, lovely sun. :)

surfing is the ultimate skill

0 comments

"..... life is more like the sea, ever changing with no fixed paths or destinations, with swells and currents and waves that change everything at every moment. The ultimate skill, then, isn’t setting a destination (goal) or a path (plan), but surfing. In surfing, you take whatever waves come, learn to judge the waves as they come, learn to ride the wave as it changes, not as you planned. It’s going with the flow (literally), and changing what you do depending on how the flow changes."
