Itâs free and brought my overall anxiety down. After spending all my hours in front of a screen (work or voluntary), itâs nice to be apart of something bigger, fresher, and thatâs actually beautiful. Itâs also nice to bring my friends along for morning hikes because it bonds us outside of usual nightlife stuff or things where we donât have to talk to each other.
More accessible activities (for people who donât conveniently live somewhere where mountain bike tourism is a real thing) includes waking up super early and also doing yoga. I usually wake up at sunrise which gives me a bunch of free time (for half a year).

Lifeâs been super life-ing hard lately. So I decided to just go for it and try my first hike.
I joined a group of strangers at Mt. Batulaoâmy âmother mountainâ here in my country, the Philippines. đ”đ
Sometimes the care and love you give doesnât take root where you thought it would, but love still shows up in so many ways: in plants guiding your path, flowers, friendly dogs that greet you on to that scenic trail, a breeze of cold air, a view thatâs totally new but somehow feels like home, and strangers-turned-friends who literally lend their hands to help you up and show you which rocks are safe to step on.
The shared âbulaloâ meals. Our Filipino Laughter. The process was challenging but beautiful!
Honestly, the peak wasnât even the highlight for me during the trail.
It was realizing that what you put out into the universe comes back in different forms and tenfolds, and my connection with nature reassure me that I still have a place in this world. đ€
So, yes, take a hike. Nature finds its own ways to heal.

I remember the feeling as a child being confused what my parents actually do at work all day. That feeling of not knowing has now transferred to my friends. Getting to read their resumĂ© is like a form of hearing their life story including all the niche, cool things theyâve done but weirdly never mentioned

This album has kept me from buying that one Amazon CBT workbook, screaming in my car, deleting my social media, etc. (I cannot promise the same results for you)
