Capturing the colors of the world!

“As we travel the world, we define not only ourselves but humanity!” – Dr. Wends

As an introduction, I believed that humanity is one big tapestry, so colorful that it breaths out life even to the most mundane and that flickers interests in many of our life’s journeys. Such was that tapestry that I indulge in the colors of the world when I travel and capturing them as I come and go. That defines who I am and my own humanity, never alone in the world but forever linked to those who travels in the road made dusty by the traveler feet ahead of us. I have indeed explored so does others and by so doing, defined humanity for us to live by.

Simplicity? One should live with it!

Taking on the reins of life is complicated if seriously considered but honestly, how can one live life in the simplest way? Live with it! As we are born in this world, we were cloth with nothing but love, affection and care. As we grow in physical and personal wants and nuances, we acquire sophistication that matches with our earnest desire to grow up (not necessarily growing old) to get educated, get high-paying jobs, get settle down and be stressed with so much and of course, with less. Many people I have seen, from the streets of Osaka to the alleyways of Hong Kong, to the sophisticated Beijing to the ultra-chic Kuala Lumpur, even in Manila, many of us, as we live life profile someone for ourselves. We wanted to be someone we are not that we stressed too much, cranking out opportunities and missing some finer ones, just to get to the top. I have said in the past, no need to be competitive with others but oneself. No fault too, at our desire to get rich but honestly, riches and fame, frivolous living are stressful.
