It's very inevitable that someday the things that once put a smile on your face can reminisce only aside from your memories- in your old photographs. Sipping your favorite coffee while turning the pages of your treasured photo album. Each picture reminding you of the old times, where even small things can give you a genuine happiness.
Like seeing a butterfly in your flower garden, enough for a curve line to be drawn on your lips. Pointing on a rainbow while making a chant "gunting bangaw", you just learned from your playmate. Hearing the loud sound caused by a passing airplane, singing
eroplano pasakya ko
...pilay plite...

while laughing with friends. Playing during recess time, running barefooted on the playground, and carrying your pair of slippers just to get away from the "acting villain" of the game. Enjoying the coldness of the river, swimming with barkadas, funny to think, it was not a planned activity (the thought was *just go with the flow).
Even instances where every one of your playmates form a circle, put hands with each other, and sung the song "daisy, apple, lemon juice..."
and a lot more memories to mention but I want to add this one that everybody who once experienced this, for sure cannot forget. It was a moment together with your besties and friends under the calmness of the rain, inhaling the earthly smell, the incomparable mixture of fragrance from flowers, trees, soils, and leaves. Wow! That was once an amazing feeling.
"In our journey in this life, the least and the most that we can do, is to appreciate the moment."
