Traveling the road to manila


There must be something about traveling the road to manila. That - I don't know! I wouldn't wanna spend too much time looking for the reason. I just feel good whenever I travel this route. I feel relieved. I feel stress-free. I always seem to enjoy though I've traveled this road for so many times already. The excitement I feel is still the same. I always have a smile in my heart.


They say traveling is good and the best part of it is getting lost. Why? Well for me, its because when you're lost, you become less concerned with things that don't really matter. You only focus on things you really need. You start seeing the simplicity on things.  And that's where you start learning. Learning is good. It will never fail you. It will always carry you on the right track even though you've got it from the wrong one.

For me,  traveling is the best leisurely way of learning! You get to enjoy the beauty of nature, see different places, buildings. Different faces and even different races! Just the interaction of you to other people's good. Its a chance given to you to be friendly and eventually make friends. These are the things I mostly experience whenever I travel the road to manila. I enjoy the road because everyone seems to be so friendly. Here, I see the most famous filipino trait which is hospitality. Every filipino is indeed born amazingly hospitable and I love the thought of this whole thing. Just makes me so proud to be one. And if you ever wanted to experience these as well, don't even try using your car. Ride on a public bus or public jeepney. Its where all people are. Good and bad. Middle class men, less fortunate ones, - everyone! You'll see every single thing if you ever concentrate on it. Try the road along University Belt. You'll see different known schools and different students that would make you reflect yourself. Oh I look like that. Oh I'm exactly like her. Oh I don't like the way she dresses. Oh we do the same in our school! If you have lived in the south like me, you'll notice the difference. Students' norms along university belt is different from that of the south's. Why? I don't know. Its different the way I see it. Go and see for yourself so you would understand. :)

This travel, I can say, is the simplest yet awesome for I feel a smile in my heart. And I could do it all over again if I want to. Happiness could be found in a person's heart. Happiness is priceless! And best lessons are indeed learned outside a four-corner room called classroom :)
