While most people I know and probably half of urban dwellers are taking this time to enjoy the 4 day holiday far from the city, we (my family and I) actually preferred to stay in. No, we are far from being anti-socials. Its just that we will be off to Cebu next week for my cousin Maita's wedding. It is wonderful and refreshing to see the metropolis uncrowded, no traffic and so quiet. I so love the quietness. I don't miss those annoying campaign jingles at all that blares so loud if i could just shush them off. For the past years when we opt not to join the crowd during holy week, its always been the same and I love it. I am traditional but not a traditional Catholic. Well, I am not Catholic either so I have no religious obligations. This is basically "Me time" or "Family time". Time to do whatever makes me happy like catch up with sleep... pamper myself... get a massage...read... watch videos... art... spend time with family... reflect.
"Me time" is good for your soul, for your inner being. I need not go anywhere to get recharged. This is how I get recharged. =) Have a restful, reflective Holy Week!
