Wants and misses

Figure 1: I want to climb this mountain again.
I miss my homeland but I miss my love ones more. I miss the cooler climate and lush greenery landscape of my homeland. Even though it is not so noisy here, but I sleep more peacefully at my village. There's always something special there, but most of all its about the people.

Figure 2: Earthly wants rarely last for long.
I thank God for giving me what I have now and I really appreciate those blessings, but as a normal human being, I was always expecting more. All of what I have now is enough, but my instincts tell me to gain more. I am such a selfish and greedy person to want more.

I must persevere with patience in me and I have to hold on to my principles. I believe there is so much more in life than what I plan or what I want. I believe that God has a plan for me which I can never comprehend in my little mind. God's plan is more what what I want or miss.

Missing my homeland again..

Figure 1: Sunset at the Salut.
It is barely two months since I got back from Kaamatan holidays that I started to miss my homeland. I missed my village and the environment there. I enjoyed going out just for a walk up the hills and exercise while waiting for the sun to rise or set on each side of the hills. 

Figure 2: X marks the spot.
There are a lot of places which I have yet to explore and capture, but due to work commitment it doesn't permits me to just simply hop out of this island and go back home. It requires proper planning and it is up to my boss to release me or not. That simply sucks.

I really crave going back home, especially to meet my family members and have fun with them. It is so difficult to be alone and have no one at home despite the ability to do what you want. It starts to get so lonesome here. Maybe it's time to get married. Am I ready, that is another question.
