out of the storm

Sometimes we need storms in our life because as what Haruki Murakami said in this quote, "you won't be the same person" when you come out of the storm.  Oftentimes, we come out of a storm stronger and better.

The photo is a stormy scene with coconut trees swaying in the wind.

Amazing day

I love how e.e.cummings expressed this simple gratitude for an amazing day! We really have a lot to be thankful for. We only need to look around outside and also inside of ourselves.

This photo is once again taken from my favorite island here in the Philippines, Boracay. I just love the white sand and swinging palms of this place.
