She always wakes up at 3am
And it is a ritual that has no rhythm
Except maybe the sound that an early morning brings
Silence –
And her thoughts wander
Savouring the days of old
She smiles –
There would always be other days like this
She would always treasure
What the morning brings
She knows –
Life is short
Choose to be happy
Choose to be an inspiration to others
Choose the joys and not the pain of living
Choose what life brings
A joy in the morning.
It took me so long to access this blog, I wonder what happened really. It is always touch and go so I stay with my main blog Dreams and Escapes which you can access here. This is just a trial post once more. I could not even see the tags and categories….whew!

I am back. I hope I could update this site again without the difficulty of logging in.

I can’t believe I haven’t touched and visited this blog like forever (an exaggeration of course) but I was so focused on updating my main blog so I forgot about this. Early this morning while I was watering the plants, I looked up at our jackfruit trees and saw this. I was hoping I could […]

Gosh, I can’t believe it’s been almost a year now since I posted something here. I am always updated with my main blog though, a link of which is attached here. Sharing this photo I took yesterday, we locally call it Lato salad, a appetizer. I love seaweeds and I buy them once in a […]
Nonna’s joy. I think this is the second time I posted a picture of my grandson here. He is turning six this coming November. Time flies. Happy Grandparents’ Day to all proud grandparents like I am.
