#rflxn: what is the Dream you Live for?
“People live for the dream in their hearts. And I have yet to know anyone who has not some secret dream, some hope, however dim, some storied wall to look at in the dusk, some painted window leading to the soul.”
#ZaneGrey #reissue (at The Aerie)

“We all have possibilities we don’t know about. We can do things we don’t even dream we can do.”
#DaleCarnegie (at The Aerie)

#MohandasGandhi (at NAIA Terminal 2 - Philippine Airlines)
#rflxn: what do you Hope for?
“If we had no hope – for a cure, for winning the lottery, for falling in love, for the end of war, for being free of abuse, or for having food, warmth, clothing, and shelter – we would have no reason to go on.
What you hope for doesn’t matter, but rather the essence of hope itself.

what is love, dearest?
a carnival of longing, lust, and loss,
pure passion in the summer swells.
what is love, dearest?
crimson carpets of fallen, forgotten
amber autumn dreams.
what is love, dearest?
heart broken, beaten, still softly sighing,
in the wild wailing winter wind.
what is love, dearest?
a flower’s freedom from the fading frost,
soul seeking the sunbeams of spring.
