This photo was taken while I was driving on the road in Iloilo, Philippines just this JAN 2020.

There is nothing like a CLEAR SKY with CLOUDS that form in various shapes to make your day.

It was A BIT HOT though, which made me wish for the CLOUDS to pour nourishing water on the ground.

Isn’t it wonderful to be part of a BRIGHT DAY?  It feels like your whole day will also be DAZZLING and JOYFUL.

The GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE in San Francisco California.

The shadow engulfs me and I look like the dark side of the bridge.
It was a fascinating experience.
It was sunny but it was dark.  
It was hot but it was windy. 
It was summer but it was cold, brrr. 

And I have confirmed what Mark Twain said:
"The coldest winter I've ever had is a summer in San Francisco.”

The Amazing Golden Dolphins, at Hong Kong Gold Coast, Tuen Mun.
This is the place where every 6 pm, the setting sun meets the moon.
The profoundness of their beauty, makes me wonder almost every day.
Could it be that Flipper is from HK?... she speaks Cantonese in her own way. 😀😂

Akyat Ron, Sige Akyat pa !!
No, I wasn’t auditioning for the role of Spiderman (although I wish I was  😊 ).
I just did a few rock-climbing activities before.
It always felt good to ascend rocks or walls.
As you can see, this is really a physical venture and a bit dangerous, so don’t try this at home, unless you’re…   Spiderman. 🕷🕸

I saw this yesterday on an external wall in our village, so I took a picture of it.

This is a STICK INSECT (it got its name from…well… a stick, because it looks like a stick 😄 )

Its scientific name is Phasmatodea or Phasmatoptera. It is pronounced as Fasma….Fasmatod…. Fasmatop…; ok, never mind, 😌 let’s stick with STICK INSECT (stick with stick…hahaha, did I just write that?), it’s not easy to say its real name.

Looking like a stick is its mechanism for defense from predators.  The predator won’t attack a wood-looking thing, so it prevents an attack from happening in the first place; that’s its first defense. However, if an attack happens, it will use its body to attack to make an offense; that’s the secondary defense.

 It is an AMAZING ANIMAL … errr... in the world of insects.  🤠😎

They are White, Black and Brown
They lift my spirit when I am down
They are Denver, Corby, and Buster
They are the cute dogs of my sister

Place them on a sofa with you, cuddle them, stroke their backs gently… and you’ll find yourself a permanent job (they won't leave you). 😄😂

Happiness is watching this cat every morning in our village.
She can’t even look at me; she’s so shy but she knows me.
Nanihiya siya ngayon kasi wala daw siyang face mask. 😄
Lagi siyang nasa paborito nyang puwesto, nagmamasid, nag-rerelax.
Matapang ang kanyang green na mga mata, pero pumipikit naman siya pag nag eye contact kaming dalawa. 😌
Mukhang kailangan na rin niyang mag-reduce or mag-exercise, kasi medyo sumobra na ang lusog at taba niya.  😉
Happiness is just watching this lovely cat each morning before I go to work.
She is a delight to my eyes…, and I’m sure to others as well.😎

Happiness is reading, yes, reading a book
Here, some are scattered,  just have a look
When I opened a page, it’s like I’m in a hook
Bonded to words, my focus is what they took

Happiness is being immersed in a good story
Like enjoying a fruit, a banana or a strawberry
Happiness is reading, it builds joy in the memory
Each journey is so real, to the words be the glory

Last year wala pang face mask & syempre no Covid, 
Kahit saang lugar, ating mga feet tayo ay ihahatid
Whole family pwede maging crazy tsaka mag funny face
Hindi lang pang kapuso,  pang pamilya pa sa lahat ng place

Sabi ko nga kay Aileen & Martin, pwede talaga mag-rhyme
Kung busog naman & you’re with family enjoying the time
Sa life nating ito, TagLish ang gamit, kahit among our friends
Kasi PANGYAO.HK is our FAMILY, kaya sign-in na, I highly recommend 

The wondrous POMELO.
Not just Food For Thought, it’s also Good For Thought (ok, I made that up; but it rhymes, doesn’t?  it😄).
I was in Davao, where the National Food is... any FRUIT. 🤣

A young good-looking lad in the red shirt (I was 14) learning guitar with an uncle. 😎

 I had girls swooning over and running after me at that time…, most of them are dogs and cats though.😄🤣

Monkey (looking at the sky): Oh, Dear Universe, when will these crazy men leave me alone? They’re acting more like real monkeys than me.   :)  :)  

My PANGYAOS and me in our quest to complete the ‘Oxfam 100 km Trail Walk’ a few years ago. 🚶🏃🏃🚶😄
 
 ==
 If I’m with friends, I have the strength
 To face hurdles that may run at length
 If I’m with friends, I have now understood
 A journey is easier even into the woods
 
 With my Pangyaos, there’s often a chance
 Things could go crazy, we might sing or dance
 With my Pangyaos, even when cooped in just one place
 We still would feel we’re traveling in a much larger space
 ==
 
Masarap talaga pag may mga Pangyao at mga Kaibigan tayo.
Post your photos here at PANGYAO PICS and share your LOVE for your Pangyaos and their LOVE for you.
SALAMAT. 👍 😄

True PANGYAOS are like flowers that stand out amid rocks and soils.  They are colorful and they delight you all day.
