On Commercialism etc.:a reply to Black Saturday
Prescript
There is a bit of disharmony between the way this blog is meant to be utilized and the way we write as a pair but we'll have to make do with what we are provided for free.
Dear Nanay,
I am uncertain if I am supposed to say you write beautifully, but I think I just did.
I could not recall hearing that belief mom but in case that's true, I have a question. What happens if you are already wounded days or a day before Good Friday? Does the belief still apply? No matter. The decision to heal is still yours.You can go eating foods rich in Vitamin K.
You are right about your reflection on our little journey. A place can only fascinate so long. But when put with wonderful people, it fortifies its capacity to lure, to fascinate and in our case, to heal; or another, to boost tourism in the place (lol).
Of commercialism in Pagtaltal sa Balaan Bukid, I think it cannot be helped for some resaons. One being that money is needed to improve its crowd-drawing capacity and two being a proof of man's quick-wittedness or more accurately business mindedeness. Where there are people, there is a need for basic needs. In my visit there on the day of the event, a whole truckload of bottled water was positioned halfway the mountain an sold to passers by. Those people see opportunity where others cannot and the government supports to increase revenue...
Anyway, enough of that. I enjoyed your company mom. That is not even to be questioned. What was the failure of that trip in terms of my spiritual uplifitng was my lack of strength to fully let go of the past. Instead of staying resolute, I bragged of our trip to him and as a result was only momentarily at bliss. But time has a way of healing, if only I let myself as I said many lines ago...
Thank you for the colorful band aid. I didnt know you kept it for so long that you were able to give it back now that I'm the one needing it. Let's both read "The Warrior of the Light".
Love you.
