“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”

-Ralph Waldo Emerson-

The Chair


Inspiration: Furniture found in Baguio

I realize how difficult it is to find good, comfortable chairs.
These days, they look funky, colorful and hip.
But I just want weathered, having-a-history-or-a-story-to-tell chairs cradelling my bum.
This particular beauty caught me when my feet would carry me no longer, and a fresh brew of mountain coffee was set on the table, all for me.

Bliss. Joy. Content.

My body unlocked its muscles to stretch and accommodate my mood.
This is what cheap thrills and living life is for me.
A good view, family around you, coffee made with love and
a chair that has seen and heard many tales during its life.
It was an honor.
