Kailua beach:: as pristine as it gets

In my existence, I have never seen a beach as pristine as Kailua's. The sand is soooo unbelievably white and fine. The water is very clear and blue. It was calming to be there.

















We let Ava loose. When the waves catches up on him, he was shrieking and laughing like crazy... Very priceless must I say. Again, how ironic that it is priceless... It actually do comes with a price tag that equates to three round trip airfare tickets to and fro Hawaii. Teehee!













While the little one was frolicking in the beach, the big one went hiking. In slippers! He went hiking a few miles away from the beach, overlooking the town and the beach. He says, it was so nice and chilly up there. I am just too a sissy that I'm not too fond of hiking, unless I get to see pretty stuff on the way up. Ha!ha!







And in just a few days, we shall be back home. Sigh! And so I learned that once we touch home base, we are back to work. Well, the price we need to pay for a few weeks off. Nevertheless, this beach lovin' trip is priceless.

Location:Kailua beach, Hawaii

Bruised but healing

How timely is the issuance of our tickets to go on this trip! It's been in the calendar months ago as Ava's semestral break is the only chance we could go on vacation, for several reasons. First, it falls on Halloween... Not many cakes nor parties, the ones we lose are affordable. Second, my in laws birthdays fall on these dates. Third, I get to see inspirations before the onset of Christmas. Fourth, veterans day memorial sale! I would have wanted the black Friday sale but that would be too long for a vacation for us already.

Timely I'd say for I thought it would nurse some bruised emotions I have. I know we are in a cutthroat industry but I didn't literally take it as cutting each others throats. Shit happens! Pardon the pun! I console myself with the following motivational quotes...

First, you can never put a good man down. Second, what goes around comes around. Third, you can not start something good from something bad without fixing the bad. I'm naive. We are people and not crabs. At least that's what I believe where we belong. I've actually appreciated the feeling of anger and hatred for it gives me more reason to do nicer projects or so. That is something that makes Ace go nuts. My desire to be better when angry is something. It truly is something. That's my way of turning the negative into positive.

One things for sure, I don't intend to besmirch our reputations with little foul plays or so... I believe in our portfolios... In our abilities to do nice things. Not words would sell us, but shoot me for saying this but... Our uncanny ability to make things pretty. =) Heaven sent!
