A breathtaking view of the Taal Volcano, at Tagaytay, Philippines. Read more about this unique volcano here.
Everyday life hangs lightly in a delicate balance;
Where nothing should be left to chance;
And time should not be taken for granted…like it’s something free,
Even though our problems can overwhelm us…we need to let them be;
And realize with God as our director, he’ll always see us through,
Life always needs to be nurtured & cherished too;
Where we care enough for others & lend a helping hand;
So we can hold & treasure life, before it drifts away like sand.
You realize life is fragile-when you see love in another’s eyes,
You realize life is fragile -when looking at a newborn child,
You realize life is fragile-when you see the beauty of nature,
You realize life is fragile-when you look at the sick, dying or elderly,
You realize life is fragile-when you see poverty & homelessness;
Thus Life is Fragile-Handle With Care.

Finally the eagle has landed, and it is not yet home sweet home. This shot was taken as the plane was landing at the Brisbane International Airport. It was the second half of the round trip to Solomon Islands via Singapore and Brisbane. While Brisbane was fantastic but was given little time - apparently, my visit at Singapore was the best of the lot.
Since they can’t swim in this rocky shore, it makes sense to look for oysters instead. Honiara, the capital of Solomon Islands isn’t exactly the tourist cove as most of them would take a smaller plane and fly off to adjacent islands like Gizo. It is indeed unfortunate that I was there at Solomon Islands and yet do not get to experience the white powdery sand and its crystal azure waters as depicted on the desktop wallpapers. Will I go there again? Perhaps to Pacific Islands, but maybe this time I’d like to visit Palau instead. I heard the coral reefs are to di’v’e for.
