for B who never stops on sailing...
This is where true emptiness lies.
People believe that an island
is another paradise-
it is a dwelling of hope
it is the light, the life of the sea.
Every morning, I welcome the sweet
voices of the waves, the dance of whitecaps
every time they leap over me-
it is always a performance,
Sometimes, I wonder how they celebrate at night,
do they also dance
or sing. Do they consider
an audience?
(I love to be with the waves. I love the solitude, i love the joy)
True.
There is happiness in the sea.
There is total emptiness.
(when they don't notice my existence).
I am but an Island

Because Leaders lead by Example
Thank you so Much, Corporate Communications Team!
This book was given to me last May 4, 2010
during the Luau Party at GenSan.
Chopsticks
The day drew nearer to an end when we met.
It was not a call for jubilation
nor it was an understated coup,
it was simply a plain engagement
in a fancy, Japanese restaurant,
we exchanged glances
earmarked smiles,
understatements and ironies
I just remembered how it looked like;
you were next to me and
they were in front of us mulling over
a thought of our possible correlation
that was never familiarity
but a conceived fondness
born out of "their" excitement-
Not knowing it was a metaphor of yearning.
