And I Wander

The birds chirp at this side of the world. :)

AFLOAT… CEAD IN THE HLOUDS

.marikina city.philippines.

it started when i watched this depressingly funny i am sam on cable. i think the spirit of youth, the irreplaceable bond of family, and seeing a child in sean penn‘s eyes got hold of me and really hit me in the head. nothing beats looking at things through the eyes of a child. cliche, right. trite, but ok lang… it was what i needed after all the psychological spanking, mental fuck-ups, spiritual batters i got. all these had dulled me, made me so frigid, had aged me and made feel like i’ve grown a lot in 3 years… nothing like children to knock me off, nothing like their spirit to wash me up… oooh love them.

strangely, when the film ended, it poured outside. i really said out loud, “as if on cue, it rained.”

yeah, it was a cue for me to wake up from this deep soulless slumber, from a life that was not lived that way it should be lived.
