Habang tinatahak ang daan patungo sa tunay na kaganapan…
Isang napakalalim na emosyon aking pinapakawalan…
Sa bawat dampi ng hangin, sa daang nilalakbay, sa aking puso nandoon ang isang misyong mag-uugnay…
Mag-uugnay sa bawat emosyon ng tao patungo sa kalikasan…
Habang naatasan sa isang misyong, kaakibat ang isang responsibilidad ….
Isang nakatagong damdamin, ang kayang pakakawalan…
Damdaming ako lang nakakaalam at ibinabaon saksi ang kalikasan…
