The Parable of the Drowning Man
I came across a powerful story on YouTube that moved me, it’s not just about spirituality, but also about psychology and the ways we sometimes drift away from reality. It reminded me of dissociation, that hollow, frozen state we slip into when life feels overwhelming.
And now, in a world lit by screens, Insta stories, and endless scrolling, technology often deepens that disconnect, pulling us further from the present moment even as we search for meaning within it. Maybe that’s why this story felt worth sharing.

Monkey Business
The first time I saw monkeys perched on a roof at Lio Beach, I was fascinated. I’ve only spotted monkeys here twice, so it felt like a rare treat. The scene instantly reminded me of Bali, but with a striking difference: these monkeys were quietly eating fruit from the trees, completely uninterested in humans or the nearby cafés and restaurants.
In Bali, monkeys are bold and mischievous, often raiding food or snatching belongings, but here, they seemed content.
That got me thinking, why the contrast in behavior?
I started digging a little deeper into the differences between monkeys in the Philippines and Bali, curious about what shapes their attitudes toward humans.
Digital Art: REMNANTS
🪼 Remnants…
In nature, nothing is truly gone, fallen leaves become soil, ocean foam dissolves into salt, stars collapse into dust which seeds new stars.

My Favorite Art Lately: Freedom in Sunlight and Saltwater. Or… maybe it’s been that way for a while now.
There’s something about swimming under the open sky, sunlight spilling over the water, that feels like pure freedom.
