Sky lanterns, also called as Chinese lanterns, are special because it goes airborne when the flame from a candle heats up the air inside the candle. In Thailand, it is used for celebrations and special occasions and is believed to bring good luck to release a sky lantern. A family lights a sky lantern while on vacation in Koh Samui. You wont see the mom because she was busy taking pictures of her family. A time spent with family is a great reason to celebrate and will forever be remembered.
This photo was taken on one of the islands in Coron, Palawan. I was on an island hopping tour and this is one of the stops. We were lucky because our boat was the first one to get to the island and we were able to enjoy peace and solitude for about 30 minutes. Then, other tourists began to arrive and frolic on the beach. I was lucky to get this picture of a guy walking on the beach alone. This photo shows what I feel when I travel – I am alone but I am not sad. I am one with nature. One with the world.
Sometimes, we try so hard to blend in that we tend to forget the reason why we are created as such. YOU are unique and YOU are meant to stand out. Be yourself and celebrate YOU.
Sunsets are so pretty to watch when you see the magic of the colors changing right before your eyes. It reminds you that we live in a world full of amazing things. Once in a while, we need to stop and be aware of things. As a famous quote say, “It’s all about the journey, not the destination.”
