WHY DO I LOVE THE PHILIPPINES?

I love the Philippines because of its wonderful mountain coverage and its nature. I discover how rich the land resources of the Philippines two years ago when I actually witness its scenic beauty and its marvelous breath-taking surroundings. The Philippines’ territory covers only thirty to forty percent of land, and that includes the plains, plateaus, hills, volcanoes and mountains. Among the classifications of land, what I like the most are the mountains.

Two years ago, I went to Cuenca Batangas to fulfill a long lost promise to the one I loved. Yes, 6 years ago, I fell in love with a mountain climber. I went to Cuenca to discover how he (mountaineers) lives and to discover his (their) addiction to mountains but at the end of the day I find myself discovering something else. I went to one of the mountain climber’s favorite mountain… Mount Maculot.

It is the mountaineer’s favorite climbing spot because of its perfect posture as a training ground for newly aspiring mountaineers. It has a very, very assault posture that will test one’s strength, endurance and agility. As the mountaineers and I ascend to the top of Mount Maculot, I can’t wait to the rewards that are waiting for me. Will I ever find the answer that he’s trying to ask me? Or will I ever understand him for the reasons he gave me why our love didn’t last that long?

He was right. It is beyond explanation! The experience of climbing this mountain is priceless. The area is so beautiful that no words can explain it. You get to experience living with the nature; you become “one” when you’re on the top of the mountain. It is having different perspective when you’re there. These are the things that I discover on this journey. I fell in love with the mountains the way I fell in love with him.

So if you’d ask me again, why do I love the Philippines? I can give you two answers. I love the Philippines because of its mountains and the other reason is that resources here in the Philippines are priceless. You get to discover its wonders while discovering your inner most self.
