Mornings of My Childhood

Whenever I spend time in my hometown, Davao, I wake up to this every morning....





.....and I wonder why I choose to live in Metro Manila.

The garden is big. The air is clean. There are no sounds of horns honking that drown the chirping of the birds.

Then I think of my husband and children. Their morning hugs, kisses and smiles. And then I realize that I was destined to find love in big, busy, polluted Metro Manila.
