Life As We Know It

I am glad that I made time to get away from the stress of my job in Los Angeles and decided to go back to my mother country to at lest unwind for some quiet times with friends, families, and relatives.

At least the feeling of nostalgia was been quenched to some degree and not been provked more to cause me any emotional breakdown. It's really nice to have taken this long break to at least escape from the realities of the working life. Life is indeed short!

Now staying in Manila with my little sister perusing the busy streets of Manila was quite a joy because we need not worry about daily reality check. The thing we need to worry is where to go or what to do. Hahahaha.

So far, I did had a blast and my stay at the country's capital was very memorable and enjoyable at the same time. Our only rival is time. So many places to go and see and so many people to meet and acquaint with. It was mind boggling and nerve-wracking at the same time.

I just came back from a weekend spree and stroll from Singapore, famous for it's name as the Garden City of Asia. Singapore is a sprawling country rich in modern and contemporary architectural designs as well as arts. People from every nooks of the globe comprise the diversified richness of it's cultre and the marriage and mixture of each ethnicity had made Singapore a very unique country to reckon with.

I am so blessed to have made this unplanned yet as we say it an impulsive vacation because I had enjoyed every places I had went. It's supposed to be liked that. At least I had unwinded all my tensions and stresses that I had from the busy working life in the United States.

This coming weekend, me and my little sister will embark a four-day vacation to Hongkong. Hopefully this will promise me more experiences to explore and learn as well as more nice people to meet. It's cool to have done this at least I got to learn from it everyday. Life is always a canvass needed to be painted with pictures from the unconscious.

I realy believe in the tapestry of life. It is made of a ot of elements needed to be interwoven to convey it's meaning. My travels and vacations had given me some medium to paint it on the canvass of my mind. I am so blessed to have experienced this and I thanks the Lord for all His blessings given to me.

I know how difficult it is to have came to my current situation because I had had a lot of struggles in my life before which catapulted and helped me to where I am right now. Looking back through it at the back of my mind had brought me some heart-wrenching memories I couldn't forget. Aaaah.... those were the times.

Now, life is not even easy because as I raised the level of my life to some greater heights I still have to surpassed some challenging hurdles along the way. And these hurdles had taught me some good reasons to learn from my mistakes. Aah well, I am choked up right now reminiscing all those bitter experiences.

Well, so much for these nostalgia..... all I need right now is to enjoy my vacation and get rid of those bitter memories. I just don't want to spoil my precious vacation and I needed to unwind more because in due time I know I will come back again to reality.

Vacationing in my homeland is just a fantasy.... and I don't know later on it will culminate and had to end. Life is always moving.... and it's a cycle we can't even stop. That's life as we know it.....
