middle age...


Time awaits for no one…

When I was young, I had too much time in my hands. Life was simple. I had few worries and most were trivial. I was eager to grow up and make something of myself. I toiled as I kept on waiting while exchanging hellos and goodbyes. I urged time to pass me swiftly and lead me to the future which is now my current days...

But I have never been so wrong, for time is never slow. Now, I‘m more cognizant of my time slipping away. Its current pace I can still sustain. As I progress in years, I hope time will mellow.

For there are still so much things to be done, I hope my body and mind can keep up… and my loved ones too…

Too much time has passed. Though still young, I already feel old at my age. Why do things have to turn out this way? What have I done to merit this kind of life I’m leading now?

Yet, there is a certain inkling in my heart telling me that I am supposed to be someplace else and that I have something yet to do which will prove the worth of my existence.  I have lost my self-worth in the midst of my journey.

The seas at this time of the year in the Western Pacific are bound to be rough and treacherous as the waters are being churned by deep-sea currents underneath. It did not take long before the boarding was announced for the 24-knot catamaran which will be traversing across an open sea towards m...

Distance...

When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distances a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other to cover that great distance. What happens when two people fall in love? They don’t shout at each other but talk softly, Because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is either nonexistent or very small. When they love each other even more... they do not speak. They only whisper and they get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other and that is all. That is how close two people are when they love each other. So when you argue do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance each other more, or else there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return...

Stepping out...

For someone who has lived a simple life, much more so for an introvert who needs to step outside of his comfort zone, the world may seem to be a scary place. Indeed, it is not that kind for those faint of heart,  since there is no such thing as a world of make believe.
