Grateful for rain this morning, the power outage and family/friends who makes me laugh and understands my quirks.

B had to leave early for a shoot and T woke up late so had a chunk of calm to myself in between chores.

Started reading The Poet's Guide to Life, The Wisdom of Rilke (The copy I have has been edited and translated by Ulrich Baer).

Favorite lines from the Introduction:
* "We can be shaken by losses and by gains, that we may be unsettled as much by negative encounters, adversity, difficulty, illness, loss, and death as by the peculiar intensification of our being in the experience of joy, friendship, creation, and especially, love...during those experiences, even when they bring us closer to others, we are fundamentally alone."

* For Rilke, love is work and ultimately, a difficult achievement of the soul.

What made me smile/laugh today:

A: What do you want to bring to the dentist?
T: The food, phone, and you!

Papa: (Showed off a shirt after his distance cycling morning routine)
A: Sumali ka? (Did you join?)
Papa: Hindi, niyaya lang ako ng kasama ko magregister para sa t-shirt at almusal. Tapos na kami magbike. (No. Me and my companion registered just for the free shirt and breakfast. We've finished cycling when we saw it.)

This is a #selftimed mobile photo. Finally beginning to understand what Frames Per Second meant because of this #555PhotoSeries . Colors am showing here means: Am an alumnus of Ateneo de Naga supporting Leni Robredo. Not really fond of pink (prefer mint green). Title is a joke that my closest friends would probably get.

Gratitude and light.
