How was your aquatic activity at home? Did you just enjoy a bucket of water in taking a bath or you just
had a very relaxing time while singing under the shower? Perhaps, you made your own version of a
bathtub or a swimming pool where you completely submerged your body to be refreshed from the very
hot days during your vacation. Only if you were allowed to go out on hiking or jogging and feel the cold
breeze early in the morning, you would have been doing it on a daily basis in order to stay fit. Did you
miss it already? Relax and enjoy as you are about to explore the caves of knowledge and climb the
mountains of activities this lesson is going to offer you.
Are you planning a walk after the community quarantine? How about a longer walk with your loved
ones (family and friends)? Have you explored the mountains, hills, caves, forests or hidden falls in/near
your community? If your answer is no, then think again. Maybe you are still a stranger in your own place.
Consider some outdoor recreational activities that bring you closer to nature. It is very relaxing to hear
the sound of singing birds and bubbling brooks; very soothing when you feel the breath of fresh air on
your face and smell the divine fragrance of flowers. A line in an energy beverage commercial says, “Great
things start from small beginning.” So, start your recreational activities with hiking and/or jogging even
within your compound this season.
