The corner

We hate school but we miss it when we graduate. We hate our jobs but we miss it when we quit. We hate to hate but we miss it when we love. We hate to fall but we love it when in love. We hate our views but we miss it when we lose our vision. We hate our vision but we miss it when we change it. 

We miss a page when we turn it. We miss the past when we turn a corner.

 The other side, unknown. But it is the unknown that solves problems. Sometimes I wish to be unknown. The cloud is raining, the street is turning, the light and I are sleeping. 

Am I turning the corner or is the corner turning?

Grandma Saba...

Ever since I moved in here a complete stranger who is the my landlord's mother comes to my window and says hi and asks me how I'm doing. She always bakes different goodies and offers some to me. The sense of caring in a stranger made me revise my belief on people. Maybe the true sense of caring emerges from the people we least expect. I call her grandma Saba...

I was born an Ocean away and lived miles away yet my heart can connect to an old woman living on an Island that no one has heard of! Makes you wonder why then people who live in the same country and share so much culture have the least of respect for one another! Makes you wonder how we can offer bombs and violence rather than freshly baked cookies from grandma Saba...

Love vs. Like

If I have learned anything from Saba, a volcanic Island, it would be how to vent!

This is my way to vent out my frustration from all that goes around me. From all that I see, all that I feel and all that I experience! I am not perfect nor is the world around me and if I recall two wrongs don't make anything right! So what do we do... we subtract and hope for the best! But that has its side-effects as well... It reduces from the equation, the equation that is us. Tell me why do people love to live...to... live to love? Isn't this question an equation? at the beginning addition may lead to multiplication... at the end subtraction, division and despair!

I also learned something else that is resolve, I know that like dissolves like and I know that this like out there is so much greater than love!
