Several years ago, posting in site owned by Yankee. Think site gone now.
He was planning to retire, move to Cebu City and marry young Cebuana gf, then, studying computer science. But deferred plan due to economic downturn.

Love to go back for good myself. But, oh, too risky. Daghang binuang. 8) ::)

"There's no place like home", so they say. But, then again, depends on what one means by "home".
Been an exile more than half of my life. So, what is home to me? The place born and raised or the place of exile? :-\ :)

Miss those days dating with first love. Yes, she looked like Miss Loon-- brainy, too. But that was 45+ years ago. Hehe :) ;)

? "Green Leaves of Summer" - Peter and GordonLove watching the youtube. Tropical. Look at that mango! sour and crispy, very nice , and memorable.
Makes me homesick.

Green Leaves of Summer
Peter & Gordon
A time to be reapin', a time to be sowin'.
The green leaves of Summer are callin' me home.
'Twas so good to be young then, in a season of plenty,
When the catfish were jumpin' as high as the sky.

A time just for plantin', a time just for ploughin'.
A time to be courtin' a girl of your own.
'Twas so good to be young then, to be close to the earth,
And to stand by your wife at the moment of birth.

A time to be reapin', a time to be sowin'.
The green leaves of Summer are callin' me home.
'Twas so good to be young then, with the sweet smell of apples,
And the owl in the pine tree a-winkin' his eye.

A time just for plantin', a time just for ploughin'.
A time just for livin', a place for to die.
'Twas so good to be young then, to be close to the earth,
Now the green leaves of Summer are callin' me home.

'Twas so good to be young then, to be close to the earth,
Now the green leaves of Summer are callin' me home.

“I have learned that if you must leave a place that you have lived in and loved and where all your yesteryears are buried deep, leave it any way except a slow way, leave it the fastest way you can.
Never turn back and never believe that an hour you remember is a better hour because it is dead.
Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance.”
(Beryl Markham, West with the Night)
