I write stories about my daily life...how it is like to live among the Dutch and how I look at their culture and society. It is not the ultimate truth, but a glimpse of what a Filipina migrant perceives as "the truth" ..... Nothing serious. Just an observation. A figment of my wild imagination. My own concoction. My hutspot.
Sometimes when nobody is watching or looking, nature reveals itself. Like this beautiful rainbow I saw from our kitchen table today. I had to make sure I take a picture of it. It was too beautiful to pass!
and tonight, this full moon.....
Truly, my soul expands in worship of the Creator.... Those are Mahatma Gandhi's words of course, not mine. :)
@Cherie: Yeah, the best things are for free. We sometimes forget that because we are blinded by commercialism. Gosh, I sound like my mother in law!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA The rainbow, it reminded me God's wrath (Noah's Ark) and God's promise. Nagin sentimental ako kay di pa ako naka recover emotionally san mga nagkakirita ko sa youtube san distroso san Ondoy sa Manila, nan an linog sa Sumatra. Nyway.... nanu kay mata ka pa? turugi na! lol
wow-kagayon daw sadi!!!! God is truly amazing and nothing, practically nothing, can equal His glory. man can invent the most sophisticated technology, but he cannot create a rainbow or the moon.
aram mo ako na bagan aswang, mata kun gab-i. haaay, anay amo, nakaplanluya ini na mga pangyari. niyan pa man lang ngani ako naghihinguha man mag-perk up didi sa internet...
@Jesusa: uy, I feel like singing... somewhere out there... beneath the pale blue sky.. etc.. etc.. And even though I know how very far apart we are, it helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star (moon).
@Thamarai: Oh yes, oh yes! Everything else becomes trivial. I had a stomach flu and was confined inside the house last weekend, and was lucky enough to see these beautiful wonders!

Beautiful pictures!!and truly, sometimes nature's beauty is so overwhelming and peaceful that everything else seems trivial...
