Long Nights

In the Philippines, nights are longer during christmas time until February. It is chilly and breezy at this time. It is only during this time when Filipinos normally wear windbreakers or sweaters. Personally, I love this time of the year.

When the year 2011 was about to set in, I promised myself that I would always be on time to meet my shuttle van to the office. And up to this day, I have acted on my resolution. I have been very consistent these days. I am always at the pick up point ahead of time:-)

I love the feeling of being outside long before the sun rises. It's nice to observe the sun as it slowly brightens up the surroundings making everything visible little by little.

It's kinda exhilarating to feel the gentle morning breeze and the darkness adds up to the thrill when I walk towards our subdivision's gate where the shuttle van would be waiting to bring me to the office.

I saw some early risers who enjoy their morning walks. Some students who are rushing for school. Those who have classes by 7 am need to leave their homes by 6am - when it is practically still dark outside.

This weekend , I will ask my husband and my daughter Pam to have a leisurely morning walk. I am sure we will enjoy. Long nights, please stay awhile....
