It's been a while since I last wrote my blog and I'm wondering what had happened to me. I'm into a lot of work since January but this does not prevent me from writing and allocating those extra time for my blogs. Half a year had past... I am still searching for those bright ideas and still wrote nothing. To get myself started, I had drawn my attentions into reading and looking for some great adventures but until now not a single blog had been made. Sometimes interesting ideas crossed my head but even before I turn it into writing I lost a clear vision in it. Is the creative part of me on halt or I am just lazy to start a new one? I don't know... I need a spark... Something explosive... Is this really what I need? Glimpsing at the distant mountain ranges while relaxing at Tatay Vic's Farmtown made me think again... I will start now! Those were the words... I whisper from within. You have to start now Gbins!
Looking back through the years, I was once an outdoor lover who likes mountain adventures. I am trying to recall those moments of fun and misadventures but I only got a blurred visions of my past chores just like an old picture that has lost its details and textures. Thanks to the emerging social networks, I am picking myself up and goes back to the time of draining oneself up and in the end I endured. I am now a mountaineer and my first hike to Pico de Loro burst my sleeping desire. I needed a jump-start like and old motorcycle when heated up I just goes on fire. Fulfillment had drawn me into it more and made me a certified high conqueror.
Since then hiking had been a part of my system. At work, at home and even in my dreams, mountains just tried to connect in everything that I'm in. Lucky I may be but if you meet a famous mountaineer along the way, a blockbuster climb was made easy. Yes, it was High Conquerors' Emmanuel Palacio that draws the line of possibility. I wish I could have done it in my twenties but hey! I still got what it takes coz I live my life in simplicity and always wanting to be healthy.
My dream of climbing the country's high mountains is within reach. This aspiration may like be crawling on the ditch. But I call this eagerness a hiker's itch... who wouldn't want a blog with a lot of hits? Nothing comes easy... even love don't come easily. I would have wanted an adventure daily. But in reality, my family is on top of my priorities.
What lies ahead we all don't know. Life is like a mountain climb, sometimes you're up high and sometimes you're down low. We'll grow old for sure; but I'm still be climbing more in the future. Time will come that my body will not be fit and conditioned, it will be the day that I lay low my fashion. I'm sure my son Gerome Jan will gonna climb soon... then my legacy lives on!
Until my next adventure... God Bless!
