Woods, Nails and Everything in between.

        Being different is cool, I guess. Not just fitting in to what's trending or just gowing with the flow of what's new. I am different and I'm happy about it, I like things that my peers doesn't really notice or appreciate, and that little yet marvelous thing is called CARPENTRY.

       I know it seems funny but for me it is the coolest thing ever! Well there are things that I find very cool and I'm the kind of person that is fond of being fascinated. I have met different kinds of people with different types or level of fascination. I have met people who gets really fascinated with the things I just commonly see in a daily basis. and I have met people who doesn't get fascinated at all, because they have seen every little detail in their everyday lives. and Me, I'm just in between them. :)

          I appreciate little things with huge purpose, I give appreciation and, let's say, attention to smaller things because these days people doesn't give a F*ck to anything tiny yet relevant anymore, Let us say a nail, Yesterday I saw a nail on the ground, I picked it up and I examined it, The first thing I thought was How many nails do they make in a day or in a year? I mean, once someone bought a pack of nails, no one will
ever see it again, because Duh! LOOK AROUND. Look at the table you're using,  the cabinets, the chairs, the doors, the stairs and a thousand more. all you can see now are the heads of the nails and they bind woods and heavy stuffs to make our lives easy and comfortable yet no one notices them.

          My grandfather who is now 60 plus years old and still has abs :D is the greatest carpenter I have ever seen!. I'm not bragging about my lolo but he didn't get to learn carpentry in school he just helps his dad and his uncles before and now he's the one making small houses and stores. I was watching him doing his thing last week and I was gobsmacked. as in gobsmacked. I don't know why but he works with good routine and harmony, everything seems going in the right places and right duties. Then BOOM! There goes your tiny building. :)

           In the future, I don't want to be a carpenter but I would like my future sons and / or daughters to know how to build houses like how my granpa does LOL, is that even right? Gosh that's funny.
