Thankful in the midst of Hives Attack

I am having one of those nights again where I feel itchy all over my body and I am growing hives like potatoes from my scalp, entire face, to my bum, to my thighs to my toes. It is horrible I tell you, not knowing why I am itching all over and growing these hives and rashes. The not knowing part sucks but the internet surprisingly helped me deal with it. I had to first find out what pantal is in english in order for me to understand my condition more. I found out it was hives. Hah! From researching about my condition as I scratch my life away with pleasure, I ended up watching this video by Rick Mereki (not sure if that's his real name or if it was just a screen name).
3 guys, 44 days, 11 countries, 18 flights, 38 thousand miles, an exploding volcano, 2 cameras and almost a terabyte of footage... all to turn 3 ambitious linear concepts based on movement, learning and food ....into 3 beautiful and hopefully compelling short films.....

= a trip of a lifetime.

move, eat, learn

What he shared made smile. Man, was I inspired! Being inspired is a great feeling. It made me disregard my hives altogether! I LOVE IT!!!! Am I booking a flight to Zamboanga and push through with my Mindanao to Luzon adventure because of this video? Maybe. I was moved by the video, yes. For now, being able to smile despite having my entire body serve as a world map of hives is enough for me.
