my first blog of the year

work sure do get in the way of blogging. don't get me wrong, am thankful that i have a regular work. but i'm like those old computers - not good at multi-tasking. so that's why it's been awhile since i posted anything here.

ever since as a kid, i've looked at going to the beach as something you enjoy with family or friends. our parents used to take us for a swim in manila bay ( it was still clean at that time ) near baclaran every summer. going to the province is not complete without a day or two spent swimming or just eating ( he,he) on the sea shore.

but the landslides in quezon ( a province we have to pass by on our way to bicol )and the tsunami that struck the nations around the indian ocean last december 26, 2004 brings home the fact that nature could also be a destructive force. something we, who earns a living inside an office room, often forget.

that's why i also look on those days i didn't post a blog as a time of silence for the souls of the victims of these tragedies...and those who survived them.
