Still looking at the three sides of the bill. . .
No matter where we are, we can see the world.
Ganyan kung maliit ka. Bata. Siguro nakalimutan mo na at siguro hindi mo naisip noong nakatingin ka sa malaking puno. Napatunganga na lang ako sa ganda ng nakita ko. Hindi ko naisip noon but looking back to what happened a long time ago, I think that was all I needed to see the world. With leaves falling everywhere, I just stood there, awed at the beauty before my eyes. Ngayong lumaki na ako, hindi na masyadong malaki sa paningin ko ang punong yun pero namulat ako sa laki ng mundong tinitirahan ko. Naisip ko, kailangan kong makipagsalamuha sa iba’t-ibang lugar, gusto kong maglibot dahil gusto kong makita ang mundo.
But it was as simple as standing before that old tree on this perfect town. Sabi nga nila, there’s no place like home. I don’t need to see the world, there’s another world here and i’ve been very lucky to be a part of it. And seeing that beautiful old tree made me see the world.
