Beauty in the Mundane

July 28, 2008

Still reeling from the wake of my field trip from hell, I started thinking about trying to find meaning in the seemingly useless experience. Maybe this is what it really means to “grow up” ;-)

Letting go of annoying experiences has never been (and perhaps will never really be) simple for me. It usually stays with me for days on end and it’s negativity tends to seep into my waking moments. However, this time I am trying to rechannel the negative energy to something better. 

Given that the trip was not so much fun (what with having to work overtime and having horrible living conditions), I am taking the opportunity to appreciate the mundane, to find beauty in otherwise terrible conditions. 

Aside from the beautiful handicrafts and church in Lumban, I have to admit that being away from the hustle and bustle of Manila life, even for a short time, gave me a chance to appreciate the beauty and power of nature.
