One time, I was on night shift and travelling along South Super Highway since my work is in Biñan Laguna. And open my windowside in the shuttle and feel the rushing wind upon my face.A realization came to me, what if the air i am breathing right now is polluted in full of viruses like AH1N1 of many more airborne diseases will I be wearing a self-contained breathing apparatus with me wherever I go.I imagine i am always carrying on my back a tank of oxygen to breathe. Oh i will miss breathing pure air and will have the burden of carrying something on my back as my life support. And upon imagining things like that I appreciate more the rush of the cold wind that night and thank God for the air I breathe, I am very much thankful that I am breathing a fresh air. I also thank God for the trees that gives off oxygen for us to breathe. I learn to appreciate more every breath I take and always be thankful of it for it holds of my life.The life that God gave to me.
And I also grasp that the reason why I work in Laguna eventhough my hometown is Taguig because since childhood I love the view of trees and ricefields in Laguna when we visited my Uncle. It bestow on me a sense of peace and joy. All my on the job training and previous work is in Laguna because I prefer Laguna than Makati or any other places in the city. I recall having a seminar in Makati and because of the pollution on my travel home I appreciate the fresh air and peacefulness of Laguna more and I got a headache on the commotion and chaos of the city.
I remember my first ojt in Los Baños Laguna, where every after lunch we have an hour break which the six of us spend it under a tree where there is view of ricefields, vast blue sky above and the peak of Mt. Makiling which dictates the weather, if it is hiding in the clouds, rain is approaching. On that place is my first time to see the rain approaching from afar until it reach my place.I consider that place as a taste of paradise, even the people there are very simple and nice added by the simplicity being not time pressure at work.That's the reason why I love to always come back to that place every chance I have.
And I come to a conclusion that being given the chance to see the beauty of nature from that perspective made me become who i am today. A person who really love nature and made me become a mountaineer and a steward of the Earth as caretaker of God's creation being my advocacy in life.
