Today might just be a normal day for everyone else. But for me, today is a reminder of how lucky I am to be alive.
the Anawangin 11, a few hours before it happened. we were even joking afterwards that this could have been the perfect picture for our wake. *knock on wood*
3 years ago, one Saturday afternoon, in Anawangin Cove, 10 of my friends and I survived a near-death experience. We almost drowned due to an underwater current which has, unfortunately, cost lives of other people over the years. What was supposedly a fun afternoon in an isolated cove turned into the scariest and most peaceful day of my life.
this was us after the incident, a photo by a random person who was also there during that weekend. we were an accessory to his beautiful sunset photo. :P
that's me in a black jacket, the morning after, alone and staring at the sea.
another photo by a random person.
Today I am thankful for the second chance and life given to me and my friends. Today I am reminded of the things I promised myself three years ago.
Although work has been very stressful and exhausting lately, I still want to celebrate the 3rd year of my second life. I wasn’t able to go out with friends tonight to celebrate, but at this moment I offer a prayer of gratitude to Him. :)
