All Mud and Laughter
>> Wednesday, October 13, 2010
One of the things I love about living in the province is the chance to get very close to nature.
Do you remember when you were a kid and had the chance to go out, play, get all mud up but full of joy in your heart?
You go out and find playmates who eventually become your friends until you get old. Getting your toe nails packed with mud and your shorts and shirts soiled with dust and mud is all part of being a kid and growing up. You have all the time to look for ants, grasshoppers, butterflies, dragonflies and all those things that you find in nature. At this age, it was just all play. But later on, we realize that it was where you learned camaraderie, sportsmanship, love for nature, some abilities here and there and love for friends.

Yan eh noong araw na hindi pa uso mga "hi-tech gadgets". Eh kaso naman ngayong panahon na ito eh ang mga kabataan hindi na paglalaro sa labas o bakuran ang ginagawa. Karamihan eh nakababad na sa pagko-computer! Yan ang dis-advantage ng "hi-tech" na panahon natin sa ngayon. Nawawala na ang "bonding/socialization/personal heart to heart talk/" sa pamilya, mga kalaro o kaibigan... "Everything in moderation" lang talaga...
Tama yan!
That's why I was so glad when I saw these kids last weekend playing in front of your yard. I was thinking that many kids miss this kind of play.
