Food for Thought

Hi! Sorry I might have missed to repost these great words shared by Scott Wood as a comment to one of my recent blog posts.

"I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time"

Pinoy


Took this photo on a birthday celebration somewhere in Bauang, La Union, Philippines.

"Pinoy" is a Philippine slang for "Filipino" or the people of the Philippines.

This is a picture of poverty, camaraderie, and struggle, as might have seen and observed in the current state of the country.
