"Though we came by different roads, now we walk together.

Stay beside me all our days, strangers never more."

I remember it was a very difficult, very tiring day. Then this sunset spoiled all exhaustion; it was a good day after all.

As it nears it end, the fire burns at its most passionate.

Take a closer look... she's reading something very important.

In a boat full of people and on her way home from school, this girl chooses to read the bible to kill time in our three-hour river journey.

Disturbed

Just like the waters in this river, which was once a spread of calm, we too are disturbed from our comfort to be made into something more beautiful.

Because of the lack of transportation (or the lack of progress for that matter), this has been a common scene in Samar.

Pintuan

Ito ay isang bagong simula.

Natapos na ang Byaheng Borongan, isang taon ng paglalakbay at biyaya. Ngayon naman, sisimulan ko na ang bagong buhay matapos ang aking pagbyabyahe bilang isang JVP.

Ang pintuan na ito ay ang pintuan ng aking kwarto sa Borongan. Naisip kong dito simulan ang aking panibagong paglalakbay, sapagkat dito rin nagtapos ang una kong byahe.

Sa aking bagong paglalayag, isang malaking implwensiya pa rin sa akin ang mga karanasan ko bilang isang JVP sa Borongan. Sa katunayan, ito ang malimit kong pinagkukunan ng lakas. Para sa akin, importante pa rin na balik-balikan ang mga karanasang nagpapatunay na buhay nga ang Diyos, na -sa mga salitang ng aking batchmate na si Tootsie- lahat ay isang biyaya.

Ang blog na ito ay isang lathalain kung saan ibabahagi ko sa mga nais makasaksi ang mga nasaksihan ko sa aking erya gamit ang mga litratong nakuha ko. Ngayon, muli kong bubuksan ang pintuang sinara ko may dalawang buwan na ang nakakalipas...
