hurry up.

its almost December. but what a forgettable year.
just like the essence of this picture - it says nothing.
not until you dig deeper, questioning the significance of that pair of sunglasses that warranted such a photo with such a backdrop. assuming it was not some random shot (which it wasnt), this photo means something to me and yet, nothing to anyone, and everyone else. its the same way with this past year.

this photo, on the other hand, speaks volumes. 

taken last year. not too soon before i left, when things were fine....or when i thought they were.

 it never really occurred to me that this photo would hold some significance. but now it does. it means everything that it implies, and more.

if i could recompose it once again, i'd include the threshold i was standing on, directly under the arc of the gate. but anyhow, this is it. 

even if sometimes the awkwardness and nostalgia make me wish otherwise, its better for me this way. 

this will be the last of it. 2012 will be a journey to find the answers I seek and the peace I need. 

i think, some issues take longer to resolve and for this, it is one that i have to do on my own. 

the new year needs to hurry up and get here.
