April 23, 2011

Life is an adventure. It is scary at times. Those scariest moments in my life, I wasn't able to get pictures to geotag them.. hmmm... smile... From near drowning experience in La Union, close to high speed mishap in Cabanatuan, close to deep ravine falling near Sagada, almost got buried alive in a landslide in Halsema, close to falling at Crocodile hill in Padada, those flash floods, etc, and to those I already forgot. Life is indeed an adventure. (Trust me, when you almost die, you remember all your sins, and hope you will be forgiven. Dawg, that is the scariest part). Beyond the pictures that I post, is an experience, preparation, mindset, fear, happiness, sadness, hunger, thirst, desperation, adrenaline rush, adrenaline loss, and of course, the strong will to survive. And in the end, I say to myself, I won't do it again. But here I go again after a month or 2. :) It is a satisfaction I cannot explain, it makes me happy.

There is just much to learn outdoor, there is just much color to see, and there is just much sound to hear. As I used to say, our experience won't end on paved road. Life is short, I hope we won't make it shorter!.... As others say, one life, live it! No boundaries! Follow the leader! Or just keep on walking! :)

Wear your full face helmet when you bike (sometimes I have this weird feeling of wanting to wear my full face helmet when I drive out of town to the mountains) ... boys, you know what I mean. :)

Boys, gear up. We are going out ! :)
