STARS

I love stargazing. Unfortunately, I can't do this much often now here in Manila since the sky here is obscure, may stars pa bah sa San Juan? I miss Kabankalan with all its laid-back vastness and clear sky (big dipper north of nowhere). I've been watching switchfoot's star video for two weeks now that made me salivate to score their new album soon: Nothing is Sound. Stars is a clever song. i love the guitars, i love the lyrics, i love every part of it. the lyrics are so honest; kun sa ilonggo pa, igo gid bala haw! "maybe i've been the problem, maybe i'm the one to blame, maybe i'm overcast..." i think most of us are like that, thinking that the center of the universe is on us. but then it also talks about our world in the perspective of the stars looking down on earth - but when i look at the stars, i feel like myself." when we look at the stars it makes us realize how small and insignificant we are in the light of the infinite...whew! I'll buy the album this evening. I can't sleep... i can't wait!

when i look at the stars, i feel like myself.
