Embarrassing moments

Sometimes situations arise where you are asked very specific questions in order for others to understand you more.

I dread these questions because I usually cannot remember either one specific moment, or one that can be defined as the most representative of the question and my experience. When I thought about it later, this came to mind.

What is your most embarrassing moment?

While probably not the most embarrassing thing, it was one witnessed by the most people.
We were watching a movie, and the mad scientist suddenly appeared in the living room and I screamed. In the theatre. My friend, who was crying at an emotional part before this, promptly began to laugh.

The movie was Click. I was 13. Thank goodness the theatre was dark...

Wandering in the darkness

What scares you? What drives you? What makes you determined to live, what makes the struggle worth it, what pushes you to do better?

I have asked these questions repeatedly and truthfully, even if I knew the answer, I don't think the questions end there.

I turn to music during these times to put in words things that I feel but cannot express. To be able to find others who have the same thoughts, worries, experiences, offers some comfort to push through a difficult day.

Reflection 
Glass of Water
Always
So Far Away
Tomorrow
Paradise

Take care.

To spring days

Spring is such a beautiful time of the year. It's hard not to feel happy from all the sunshine, budding plants, and chirping of birds, among other things. Slightly less enjoyable but equally important is the inevitable mud, reemergence of bugs, and rapidly changing weather.

Some things I have been really enjoying lately are in-taking copious amount of warm water, in-season mangoes, lazy lounging on the green grass with Tofu, comeback season, a trusty new hat, grandpa-style, wearing sandals again, the ease of drying hair with a diffuser, and the feeling of warm sun on my skin.
