BLESSING COOLPublished 3 days ago in WanderAnother world
Dreams are very interesting, different and mindboggling, sometimes shows the past, sometimes shows the future or even another world. I've had dreams of past lives I lived and died in and of heaven and hell, of angles and demons and talking animals. This dream is of another world, a world of different colors and different people, not quite human beings but beings that live like we do only in it's early development stages. The dream starts with me waking up on top of the clay cliffs just above the town called Whitehorse, back on the trail that leads closer to the airport stands a cement structure covered with graffiti, people have used this broke down building as a hang out for parties and gangs, the ground well used as a path. I don't know why I was brought to the cement structure, so I began to search around the area for anything that would be interesting.

It started with a bright day, sun shining and blue skies. The town hardly bigger than the capital of Yukon, Canada. Walking through the streets of unrecognizable buildings, the sights and smells unknown to the native nose. Where was this place? So unfamiliar and strange, these houses, these roads and these people all on a different scale. Everything beautifully green and full of colors of the summer, sweet fragrances of flowers in the soft flowing air, all except a smell of smoke that is odd to the area. No house should have the fire stove going so where was the smoke coming from? Following the faint smell of smoke wasn't hard, with every step closer I took brought more smoke and less people. I walked a few more blocks down the street to where I hadn't seen much signs of anyone in the streets, the further on it seemed like the whole town was empty. The sky grew dark and smoggy with smoke and the sounds of happiness faded from the world, there was silence throughout the buildings an eerie feeling of loneliness. Everyone gone but me standing on the sidewalk with white flakes of ash starting to float down, covering anything and everything with color. As I walked down the street of abandoned houses the air became stifling hot, like the sun was still beaming down on the land, which wasn't true because the smoke covered all that was visible a few moments before. A wave of heat in the wind came rushing past as I walked on a few more blocks, I stopped at a house that seemed to be inviting me in, the scene reminded me of the end of days, I scanned the area an seen that many houses and buildings were on fire or smoldering as if fire from above shot down and hit the houses and buildings. I turned back to the house in front of me and surveyed the windows on both sides, the upper windows and the front door which seemed to be untouched.

The name was evocative — Whitewater Preserve. Fascinating. Made me think of rafting. But I knew there weren’t any rapids, per se, in Southern California.

We traveled from Manila to Calatagan, Batangas, on December 23, 2023, to visit their lovely beach. Our major goal is to visit a public beach; unfortunately, I believe that practically all of the beaches in Calatagan are privately owned. We decided to visit the Stilt Calatagan Beach Resort when we got to Calatagan because we didn't know where else to go. Our driving experience has been poor; when we get to Santo Tomas, Waze directs us to a road that is both narrow and winding around the mountainside.

On December 10, 2023, my project manager, one operation engineer, and one driver decided to explore Tanay Rizal's beauty and wildlife. Our project manager was picked up first in Eastwood City from the driver's lodging, and we were picked up second in Mirea Residences in Amang Rodriguez Santolan, Pasig City. We went at 7 a.m. for Tanay Rizal. Our first goal was to visit the Masungi Georeserve, but we were unable to do so since they require advance registration or reservations before you can enter, and walk-ins are not permitted. So we decided to continue our journey, but first we stopped for a coffee at Big C Delicafe.

Nestled off the stunning coastline of Malpe Beach in Karnataka, India, there lies a hidden gem, a collection of four small islands, enchantingly known as St. Mary's Island, or even affectionately referred to as Coconut Island. These islands aren't just any islands; they're a geological marvel that has remained a well-kept secret of nature's most incredible handiwork. Picture basalt rock formations that seem straight out of an otherworldly landscape, mesmerizing columnar joints, and striking hexagonal-shaped pillars that defy imagination.
