on faith, love and strangers

by Tuesday, January 25, 2011 5 palagay
Finding ourselves sometimes requires us to go away, travel the road or climb the mountain or just simply join a long travel trip to nowhere. And on the way, we realize we are picking some of our broken pieces one after the another. And maybe, just maybe, when we return home, we are ourselves again. Ever alive.




Pray that the road is long. And on the road are stories of loves found and lost, of run away grooms and childhood sweethearts, of waiting and faithfulness. We immortalize memories on glossy papers and tagged posts. But heart remembers most- the shades of every color of the sun, the every emotion and memory we associate with them.










Life is shitty we know. But after long tricycle rides and boating the angry waves, I came with the realization that life, in all its fine thousand ways, will get me back from my hollowness and, eventually, take my breath away.

Once again.

To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other, and to feel. That is the purpose of life.

Aww, this is true. I like having an adventure than reaching a destination. I remember our field trips back in HS and college--the most memorable events were our bonding moments and story sharing in the bus. :)
