Thanks Al for your well written blog.
I haven't been on this forum for very long and didn't know you had eloquently documented how fast your English heart awoke again and snuggled up to your Filipina.
We just never know what is around the corner and pleasure is so sweet and rejuvinating after degrees of pain.
I saw this quote below somewhere and find it so apt:
"Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it...It really is worth fighting for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk everything, you risk even more".
Gabriel Garcias Marquez's book (now made into a film which I haven't seen and will probably not as it it will spoil the magic) "Love In The Time Of Cholera" may be right up your barangay! Let us say that love and romance is NOT solely the life-blood of the young.
Now one day I may write my story, but at the moment I'm still reeling from my weeks with "Panaginip". I never want to come down...
