Kite Running
Mississauga, Ontario

"Celebrate your success and stand strong when adversity hits, for when the storm clouds come in, the eagles soar while the small birds take cover"


We just went past our 4th year in Canada.

Those 4 years really flew by and crept up on us. We didn't realize being here for that amount of time. Can you imagine, 4 years - more than 200 weeks? Our Swiss life was just 3. :)

The number of years really don't matter with the blessings that we have received by coming over here, the friendships we've made, the places we saw and more.

We really can't ask for anything else....except...

Through all these, God refuses to stop and keeps on giving.

But who's complaining?

************

Our dreams are as big as this island. Our anxious hands are as cold but our hearts are warm with all the well-wishes and the prayers of everyone we left behind.

We are ready for this adventure, in a big country, dreams stay with us, like a lover's voice far as the mountainside, as the 80s song goes.

Share with us in this ride, the ride of our lives
- Memento, September 11, 2004, our first day.

Thank you for soaring with us...kapit lang

*********

I may not be Canadian by birth, nor through naturalization. I think that is 3-4 months away. I don't think I've memorized the Canadian anthem yet, the one that sounds like the Ateneo anthem, but when the flag of Canada and the anthem is played, I stand up, I look at the flag and thank the country who has adopted us 4 years ago.

Josh Howard, the Dallas NBA star, should behave more like an American to a country paying him millions and his forefathers who fought their way to getting them where they want to be now. Tsk 3x.

*********

By the way, Josh smokes maryjanes in the off season. And he said those Anthem dissing remarks during the off season, so I'm sure he was on it when he said. He's supposed to be a good guy. Tsk 3 more times.
