THE TRAVELER

Sharing today a poem that was randomly wrote years back. That time, I was at the crossroads, torn between letting go-- with the hope that someday meeting that one again.


Of course, it was an outlet hiding the words through the phrases. Back then, it was very hard as I was not used to sharing personal issues and the challenges that goes with it, and also to "so-called friends."


This morning, I chance upon "The Traveler" again after roughly seven years. While the circumstances of my personal travel have greatly improved. I still find meaning to it. 


That is why it is good to also write to yourself, or to document whether in the form of drawing, writing, painting or anything that would remind you of your current challenges. Because one day you will definitely look back, and when you look again you could see how well or poorly you hurdle your personal storms. 


This is not to brag, but rather to inspire others as there are many people out there struggling, fighting a series of crises in life. The challenge is whatever you are going through, as long as you are willing to lift yourself up, you will get through it. Stand up, today maybe a rough episode again but it will not last that long, for no storm has a lifetime.
