the Leo girl @30


Last August 14, I celebrated my 30 years of existence, 30 years of gifted life, 30 years of ME.







As another year had passed and a new chapter begun it is something I have to face. I had this moment of having flash back of my life on how it was and how I made it through. I could say it is a colorful-wonderful 30 years, I had my downs, lows, flaws, error, mistakes but at the end of the day I've learned and that made me who I am....Yes it is cliche but that's the line that says it. I may not be perfect but I know I have done my best to the best of my knowledge besides no one is perfect... right? Lessons learned and fights that been won.

Being 30 an eye opener for me, my sister teases me "ate 30 ka na di ba" repeatedly but then I answer her back YES I AM and so you will be... still I'm happy and proud. There are a lot of things to think, to consider and actually I wonder what's next for me. I've done a lot of things, experienced all the good and bad. Despite of all sads and lows, still happiness and triumph reigns.
 
So many plans, so many wishes but as of the moment i am happy and contented. I could do the things I wanna do which is traveling and climbing. And at the same time somehow I was able to share with people of the same interest, also thankfully I became a part of a great team TAGALOG OUT-DOORS TRIBE who does not only climb but help and reached out as well to our less brothers and sister, and continuously to do more. Further more I have a wonderful family, loving friends, stable job arrrgg what else could I ask for, ahhhh probably just good health, safety and happiness for me, my loved ones and family. And oh I more wish a LOVELIFE.. ahhh Lord please.. eheheh

Well, there are so many things to say, to tell, to share but at this moment all I wanna do is to say thank you to all the people who went with me through thick and thin of my endeavour, of course to my beloved family parents, siblings (extended family), dear friends Mandy, Jp, Chris, mader Irna and bez Raquel... we may not be always together but I know you all will always be there forever, again THANK YOU. And oh not to forget addition to the list are my outdoor friends, my team... TAGOT, other teams i'm part off and to all my climbing buddies! Thank you.







Thank you to all, thank you for everything, thank you that you've become part of ME.

For whatever the reason/s of this writing just remember IT WAS CREATED BECAUSE YOU ARE PART OF THIS.

 
Lord God, you are my redeemer, I lift up everything to you and all that my heart whispers. Amen!

the Leo girl on another year, happy & proud

Buntot Palos, Pangil Laguna

Ang minsanang pag-iba ng ruta ay di rin masama
bagkus ito ay isang paraan upang makakita ng ibang daan,
ang makita ang kagandahang nagtatago at ikinukubli mula sa malayang mundo.
Iniba ko ang daan mula sa lagi kong tinatahak
ang aking mga paa sa ibang lupa muna itinapak.
Ngunit naiba man ang daan iisa pa rin ang dahilan, iisa ang kinabagsakan
sa isang lugar kung saan ang isip buong sayang itinahan,
mula sa maingay at magulong kabihasnan.

Ang malakas ng pagbagsak ng tubig ng talon sa ami'y nagpatahimik, 
nagpakalma sa kaloobang tila nangangalit sa mga isipin at suliranin.
Ang hapong katawa'y sa malamig na tubig hinayaang balutin, 
niyakap ang masarap at nakakapanatag nitong hatid.

Kasama ang kaibigang naghahanap ng laya mula sa mabigat na bitbitin,
gayun pa man buong lakas at saya naming inakyat ang Buntot Palos 
Naging makulimlim man ang aming pag-ahon may kasama pang malamig na pag-ambon 
naging masaya pa rin ang aming paglusong. 

Ang mga sandaling ito ay sya ko na ring personal na paunang pag-selebra ng buhay,
pasasalamat sa mga biyayang bigay ng buhay.
Nagbigay pugay sa Poong Maykapal kasama ang mahal ng inang kalikasan at 
kaibigang buong tapang na lumalaban.
Salamat sa pagsama kaibigang Jp, paniguradong madami at mahaba pa ang ating tatahakin,
hanngat ang paa'y humahakbang, hanggat may lupang tatapakan sabihan mo lang ako 
at mag-iimpake na ako.

Oh san ang susunod nating gawi?


Maraming salamat sa panibagong taon. Im the "Leogirl @ 30"
