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.

 “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!”

her: just recently i realized that being on the road gives me this special feeling of being alive. you know, as you go along you meet people and you get to know life so raw that all the books you have read seem inadequate. it’s the same feeling i get when i first realized that there’s more to life than brands, 8-5 jobs and the ego-bloating usage of facebook.

her: suddenly, i like playing the guitar more. i also want to do better in dancing. i am happy to do things i like.

Obi: if one’s able to listen to what the heart speaks and serves the wishes of the heart without doubts and without allowing the head to ask too many questions about sense and purpose,then eventually everything will get clear…

 

Shila: You learn that people don’t always say what they mean or mean what they say and that not everyone will always be there for you and that everything isn’t always about you.

one morning, I was having ESL class via Skype when Tagay let go of that morning call.
Surprisingly, my student, stopped talking and laughed heartily

“Teacher, is that a chicken?”
“Yes, that is our precious Tagay!”

“Wow I have not heard that sound for many many years and today the chicken makes me feel so happy”.
