If you resolve to claim them back,Are willing to forgive the sins of the past?Human, vulnerable as they could be,The same mistakes may come to be. And when that ordeal eventuate,Will you deal with it separately?And be reasonable, considerate,To not recount history indignantly? The journey forward is a lot different.Comfort and repose may be hard to get.The annals of the affair is tainted with mistrust.So dawning anew may be tough to amass. Can you discard the tearand care earnestly?Will you forgo the painand love unconditionally?

I stopped blogging since the pandemic but I continue to renew the domain and hosting, hoping that I will find my motivation and incite my creative impotence while on idle. My niche is travel and it wasn’t part of the plan to write again and talk about some random deceitful apps. Applying an online loan from some random providers is not part of the plan, either. But since here I am, already been caught in an unfortunate circumstance, I am back in wp-admin. The experience, though, is quite fascinating despite the random hiccups, spiced with a bit of stress and ... Read more

It is unwise to spend all your travel budget. Likewise, spending more than what you allocated for the trip is a total nightmare.

It will not only let you escape from imminent financial downturn, but will help you fund your upcoming adventures as well. Hence, getting few dollar slashes from your travel passes or tickets will keep you away from any pecuniary troubles in the future. Hong Kong is an expensive country. To save, plan your itinerary and budget few weeks ... Read more

What they say won’t matter. What they do won’t bother. How you react, it’s up to you. Vengeance bears no value. Show off, insufferable, you won’t beat My indifference, strengthened to peak By circumstances that life brings feat. But in solitude, I silently bleed. What’s in the surface holds true to many But what paints the big picture remains Unseen yet uncloaked, within reach yet submerged. Only if you invest in truth shall it emerge. Small things bring big trouble Coz you blow it out of proportion Could have been fine with proper evaluation, not respond with a mere spike ... Read more

While the adaxis brims with vivid color,Vibrant, and with light, it shines even more;The underside’s dull, seemed lost the glamor.Rarely seen the sun, change of fate is its clamor. Like the leaf, this love has two sides.A paradox! It’s like bliss and melancholy cycling every time.I cannot share the pain since you’re never truly mine.Smacked with truth, tears fall uncontrollably, to sadness it rhymes. But since I really love you, I will endure each daythe pain and sorrow, with tears they leave temporarilyA small price to pay for the taste of felicity.Like the leaf, a favorable twist of fate is ...

Hometown sceneries triggered a lot of memories. The zigzag road between Siaton and Zamboanguita, more particularly, made me recall the embarrassing ones. I had motion sickness when I was a kid. The moment I got on a bus, my olfactory system is heightened and become more sensitive. I could smell even an imperceptible amount of diesel, asphalt, and exhaust. I would try to suppress the queasiness by thinking of happy stuff and by controlled breathing, but that zigzag road messed up everything. It was where I normally start to throw up. Drone shot of Antulang Beach Resort in Siaton, Negros ... Read more

A forsaken island, which receives less attention and less infrastructure development funding, is seating idly at the north of Cebu. Its wonders are unexplored, its beauty is rarely appreciated, and its potential is constantly overlooked. I don’t want to make this article political, but in an island that can only grow cassava and noni, and is highly dependent on fishing, the local government must explore on sustainable tourism development as an alternative source of income for the residents. I heard that Ms Gina Lopez kicked off the project but the implementation phase isn’t underway yet. The top view of Kinatarcan ... Read more
