she likes seashore naps and the view of everything from the bus window. she likes tiny moments and the small spaces between faces when people talk.

 

sometimes, she wakes up to that odd feeling of being a fallen leaf, an old tree, an azotea or a waitress somewhere-- talking to a taxicab driver about that random song on the radio.

maddening spurt:

 “The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!”

above the grass, the sky was beautiful,

it reflected the gems from their eyes…

some of them are not going to school

in some days, their young hands murder mountain shrubs and trees

for their respective dapog

we asked them how to do it, their happy voices told us with no

dash of shame or pessimism.

one girl, stood up and smiled…

“nang tin tani indi na lang ni matapos”

i told them

“mabalik kami diri…ang mga drawing niyo, ipakita ta ni sa iban ha.”

 

one of our favorite moments is when i take photos of them

i’d show them how they were captured

and you know,

the smiles are priceless

like the clear sky full of unseen stars but you know

they are just there.

i’ve said it before and i’m saying it once again. these kids never fail to give me that much-needed smile in spite of the narcissistic, angst-ridden overview i have with my life as of the moment. may singgit continue to flourish.

I assume you’re a part of this, whatever this is that you do with the kids. :)

Please write more about this. I’d like to know more.

According to my own analysis, billions of people in the world receive the business loans from different banks. Hence, there’s great possibilities to receive a auto loan in all countries.
