Hello. Here I am. AGAIN. Always have been on and off in this platform. I guess a lot had just happened, and life has moving speed bullet that I seem not to think which ones to write first. You guys may even wonder where I am writing this blog. (That's going to be another post, soon. Just don't ask me when.😁😁😁) Well, I guess life will always be like that -it catches you off guard in ways you never dare imagine.
This is just going to be a very quick and short blog. I swear. Not the usual lengthy ones I used to write. Just bringing this passion back to life. I hope I could do so. hahahah
So to RESTART with, as a connection with the last blog I had from 2020 on happiness, here's a memory I had with one of the craziest things I did back then.
Whale-shark diving in Oslob, Cebu, Ph |
Those who know me personally greatly have an idea how I am not a swimmer and a scaredy cat when in comes to the open waters even indoor pools, too. There was even one time how I was drowned in a 5-feet pool and I am even over than five feet tall. Crazy isn't it? That had been a long inside joke my first co-workers used to tease me. So yeah, going back to this. I CERTAINLY DO NO KNOW how to swim, I just have with me the intensified love for adventure and perhaps a great amount of fighting spirit, I guess?
Just for me to be able to experience this, I remembered how silly I was when I told our boatman I do not know how to swim but I want to see the whale shark and have photos of it. I insisted not to wear any life vest but told him of a certain action I would be doing which means he would need to pull me up as that would be a sign of me drowning. He got no other choice but to say yes with an unbelievable smile. And so it happened.

and here's that dream shot I had always pictured in mind. :) |
It may had been a difficult and weird decision but as I always look back on them, a smirk is always painted on my face. And I believe that's what matters most, making the most out of life.
So cheers to more life-changing decisions I will have to make and hopefully get to share them with y'all! To our next "catching-up". :)
