Who Knows?

It’s Sunday and I am enjoying my last few hours in this temporary haven in Baguio. The only sound I hear are the soft whirring of CK’s fan and my fingers dancing on the keyboard—otherwise, it’s pure, unadulterated silence.

My workshop finished at 9 pm yesterday and with the SONA tomorrow blocking my way to the office in QC, what’s the point of rushing down to Manila today? So I decided to just stay here for one more day, chill (literally) and enjoy the fog-enveloped view from my window.

Who knows, I might catch another technicolor sunset like the one I caught on camera the other day! Who knows if I would get to enjoy such a rare awesome treat again?

Then again, who knows if I will ever come back again to this nice haven in Baguio?

Who knows if this nice haven will still be around a year from now when I come home? Who knows if I would ever be able to enjoy this unadulterated peace and quiet again?

Who knows what life will throw at me tomorrow?

For now, I am A-OK and life is good. Cheers!

That multi-colored sunset is indeed amazing. Parang aurora lights sa north. I really miss Baguio.

Di pa ako nakaliwaliw ng Baguio. Dumaan lang nung pumunta kami ng Sagada...how sad hehe

One of the best sunset pictures I have ever seen.

I can understand your 'who knows' mood -- now that you're about to open a new door.

All best.

Amazing colors -- that sunset! Lucky you.

I guess "who knows" is another way of saying "live in the now", "enjoy the moment" or maybe "seize the day".

Great pics here, truly majestic and grand. Perhaps paradise had looked like this somehow---foggy trees and colored rays shooting from behind a low cloud.

Akala ko nong una, nakapunta ka na sa north pole at nakakita ng aurora borealis - which was how your sunset picture looked like to me at first. :)

Cheers!

Baguio--which brings me memories of my youth. a place i want to see once more. nice shots you have. i remember those sights, most often when i take these flights through the subcontinent, like india and pakistan, which have evening to early morning flights. how i would either remain awake or wake up at these early hours just to watch the sun rise. it is always an amazing sight in the horizon.
