Awakening

I love traveling because there is always something for me to learn from all my trips somehow. Years ago, when I was at the Great Ocean Road in Melbourne, I learned about how life can be beautiful at the most depressive point of my life. This trip back to Tioman Island, I learned that I do have a wonderful life.

5 of us were tracking to another Kampong in the forest along the coast. 4 of us were amazed by the scenic view as it was the first time for my friends to be on this beautiful island but for me I have had lost count. It was at this very same moment I realized I do have a great life! It's not about bragging of how many times I have been there but that moment when all the flashbacks of my life adventures came into my mind, I must say I did have a wonderful life!

At the Rockfall we met a couple and their children, I gladly shared my past experiences of the island with them. When the lady asked me how many times I've been there I told her I must have been there for 20 times. It was the look on her face again made me realized I do have a wonderful life!

If I have taken the beauty of the island by granted, I must have been taking my own life as in what I have for granted too. How could I? There's nothing wrong wanting a better life but I guess one gotta stop and look around at times, for contentment is also the basis to true happiness.

I can't write anymore now as I'm brain dead at 435am after a movie and supper. Will be back with pics and updates soon! Good night and good morning.......zzzzz
