Ang Daragang Magayon...

isang alamat ang bumabalot sa hiwaga ng bulkang ito - ang alamat ng daragang magayon.

ang dalagang walang ibang minahal kundi si panganuron na hangga't sa huling sandali ng kanyang buhay ay nagmahal sa kanya - inihain ng dalaga ang kanyang buhay para sa minamahal. unang kinitil ng kamatayan ang buhay ni magayon sa gitna ng isang labanan at sa kanyang kinahimlayan ay isang perpektong triyanggulo ang umusbong - ang bulkan.

sa paniniwalang ito ay si daragang magayon, habambuhay itong binantayan ni panganuron at doon na din siya nawalan ng hininga.

makikita si panganuron sa ulap na bumabalot sa bulkan. isang kahayagan ng kanilang walang hanggang pagmamahal - hanggang sa huling sandali at sa kabilang buhay ay yakap nila ang isat-isa.

BLOOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED

are you a late bloomer? you are never alone. you are never late.

being a late bloomer means that you have the time and the opportunity to revise and revamp if you experiment with life and fall short of your dreams. you can risk more because at this point nobody really expects anything spectacular from you anymore. you can reinvent yourself or give birth to your authentc self as you discover and reclaim your essence.

as i have tried and failed and tried again, I have discovered that if we are to flourish as creative beings, if we are to grow into WHOLENESS, we must bloom where we are planted. right now, you might not have the perfect career, home, or relationship. few of us do. but if you have the gift of today, you've got another chance to re-create your circumstances and make them as perfect as it is possible to do with the resources you have. today, you get another chance to get it right as you can make it. what more could you desire?

"the people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want. and if they can't find them, make them." -George Bernard Shaw
