I went to Bohol with my family last week. I enjoyed a week-long vacation together with them. I love Bohol so much that I wanted to stay there forever. I love the people, the food, and the whole place. The highlight of my trip was when we went to my aunt's island,a vanishing island actually. The moment the pumpboat docked on the shore, I immediately jumped into the water and swam. I was like a child who haven't seen a beach for centuries. I was having fun, I didn't mind about getting sunburned(thanks to my buri hat). I was really happy. While riding on the pumpboat on our way home, I did realize a lot of things, and some certain desire was awaken in me. During that 45 minutes boat ride, I silently watched the vastness of the ocean and was able to reflect on a lot of things. In my silent reverie, I felt like I was one with the universe,that the world is wide and just like the ocean,life has endless possibilities. I want to explore the world, I want to experience life's endless possibilities, I want to see a lot of things, I suddenly felt alive and have a strong desire to live. At that moment,gone was the saddest person I know,that person who became contented in the four corners of her room,silently letting life pass her by, that's not me,that's not what I want anymore. I want to break out of my comfort zone,take more risks and experience being alive again. Thanks Bohol for that life changing experience, and thank you Lord God for giving me a chance to enjoy your wonderful creations.
