Has calm and serenity ever been impressed upon you that you start doubting if its true and you go to a different place to check if what you just had was for real, you realize that it is, you come back and never want to leave?
Have you ever paddled to hover in water your direction aimed at the horizon giving you a reminder of how small you are as compared to the ocean, making you humble and brave at the same time?
Have you ever taken flight, letting the wind blow through your hair taking you to heights unimaginable, making you believe you can fly but at the same time remind you that you can just, as easily, fall?
Have you ever done something for the first time with someone you never imagined you’d experience anything at all with, making you wonder how come it took you so long to recognize his existence that you feel stupid and lucky at the same time?
Have you ever been to a place so resplendent you want to take a shot at every angle to show and tell the good news about your discovery to the world, but at the same time you’d like to just keep a mental picture all to yourself in the fear that if many others discover it, it might lose it’s pristine wonder?
I want to share to the world how beautiful the place is. I want to tell the people how relaxing and calming it felt. I want to celebrate it’s wonder. Believe me, I want to, coz it’s travesty if I don’t.
But I don’t want to tell where the place is. I don’t want to share the emotions. It’s rare that things get this pure it makes you appeased. That if shared, it wouldn’t be as special.

Okay, back to the scatter-brained, magulong kausap, walang sense na Joy. This past weekend I discovered a nice beach. The place was so bayuuuutiful, private and quiet. And the best thing about it is it’s very affordable and accesible! My head is battling itself if I should write about it or not. Ang ganda ng place so I really want to rave about it, kaya lang I’m scurrrd na if maraming people find out about it, magpuntahan na sila, mawala na yung magic ng place. So what’s Joyka gotta do? Will I take the high road and share or be selfish and keep it to myself??? hmmmmm…. for now, I’m keeping it to myself wahahahaha!(readers: “BOO”).
