Monday Blues

I'm reminded of what my dad always tells me ever since I was still young. "Smile, and the world smiles with you. Cry and you cry alone." This photo was taken on a Monday sunset, while I was looking through a window in the pantry in my Makati office. It was a gloomy sunset, I may say. And I felt, that this time, the world weeps with me.

I'm finally relieved that the week is finally over. And that Monday sunset made me realize that there'd still be hope for what tomorrow will bring. Sigh. One last tear for the week.

1st of September

It's the first day of September and I'm feeling this birthday blues again. Why do I have to feel this every year? Feels like I want to hibernate again. Well, anyway, this may be the first time I will be sharing my birthday wishes.

1. World Peace
I know it sounds so cliche-ic but what the heck, the world's so chaotic already. And we need this, because I believe, if there's peace, there's love.

2. Peace of Mind
My mind's too cluttered always. Oftentimes, I don't get something well-done because I have a lot of things in mind. I need to re-boot my system and have a clearer and cleaner state of mind.

3. Piece of Cake
Last year, when I was in China, I got a 3-layered cake, and even an orange cake. It was an extravagant birthday. But this year, it's fine with me if I'd just have even a slice of cake, as long as I have my loved ones with me.
