Maritime Tour: Dropping Anchor in Halifax, Nova Scotia (1/3)

The Marcoses 2024 Provinces Series - The Maritimes (July 13-24) Ever dreamed of a vast and endless sea, halcyon waves, and salty air? The expansive shade of blue that is ever-changing, never constant, and unbound by time, space, or words. Deep, mysterious, and quiet - the sea would never tell the secret that it holds. However, there is only one thing that the sea is boisterous about - freedom...

The Best Ones

Measured - the days we walk the earth. Each breath - a blessing. Measured - the nights we slept to wake up another day. Each morning - a blessing. Our time is so precious, so short. Life is too huge to live for just a moment. Limitless we are in soul and spirit, but limited we are in being. Measure not the days we walk, we wake. Count not but the blessings. Aki, my time shared with you...

A Christmas Melancholy

Merry and bright Christmas nightFestive breeze and a candlelight I hear cheers, the season's song Why the lonely night seems so long   Presents laid under the tree Colorful, dazzling but free Just like how I am feeling Deep inside, I am yearning   The stars may shine as bright as day The laughter may be heard loud and gay But my heart is heavy  Hurt and gleam with envy   Frozen...

Fun and Games on Biw's 12th Bday!

Gabby is now 12! We initially planned to celebrate her pre-teen birthday in Orlando but money abandoned our pockets and made its way to improving Fairy, the house.

We haven't done a family activity in a long while so...
