"The world is too big," she said, "but that doesn't mean we stop searching."
Transitions. We start small. We always do. We start small and frightened and too unwilling to take the plunge. We start as strangers, as fledglings thrown to the world, and we start by pretending that we know what we’re doing when we don’t. We start by opening our eyes and slowly unfurling ourselves, by reaching… Continue reading Cheers to the new
[I haven't written in a while, but I've been seeing a lot of mountain photos on my feed, and I hope this can serve as a reminder to leave no trace.) About a month ago, a group of friends and I climbed Mt. Maculate in Cuenca, Batangas, a very easy dayhike with a spectacular view… Continue reading An attempt at remembrance
[Author's note: so recently I've been having really bad esteem issues, and it was hampering my efforts in productivity. Thus, this. Sorry, readers, recently my posts have been very personal.
