i love to travel though it could sometimes be very exhausting. but the joy of reaching your destination after a very tiring time doing nothing but sit and maybe a very uncomfortable and back breaking nap, is just exhilarating...

i used to enjoy watching the sceneries, but not this afternoon, not tonight... i just feel so tired... i slept all the way from Manjuyod to Dumaguete... and on my way back here to La Libertad, at times i get lost in the realm of nothingness but waking up every so often because i was afraid i might go beyond my destination, and to think there are no more buses plying these routes till morning... i took the midnight trip from Dumaguete to San Carlos since the bus will be passing by La Libertad... it's supposed to be the last trip for the day...

it was very exhausting. i arrived around 12:00 midnight, and i just slept and slept till morning to replenish my lost energy... the thing is, why am i so exhausted when i was technically doing nothing... just sitting on the bus killing time till i reach my destination... why is travelling so exhausting?

whew!

here is a view of the back of the place where I am staying here in La Libertad...
every morning (from 3AM to 5AM) i take in the wonder of the beauty of nature...

but not today... i was just too exhausted... i woke up around 5.  took a bath, then when i noticed how the rays of the sun gently escaped through the thick clouds, i decided to immortalize the beauty with a Nikon digital cam...

anyway...

when i'm travelling, i like to emote... reminisce all the wonderful things that happened in my life...

this time i was thinking of the people who touched my life... here's a list...

i realized, the people that come our way, comes only once. most of the time they leave us and all remains are the memories that we've shared together. only when they're gone will we realize how precious they are to us... then we start to reminisce of the good times...
