Habitat for the Heart
I remember telling my mother the night of Saturday, "Ma, masaya ako."
I just came home from the company's corporate citizenship activity that time, wherein we tied up with Habitat for Humanity and Hands-on Manila. Although I was tired and exhausted from merely passing on pails of cement, the fulfillment I felt was overwhelming. The sun's heat reminded me that I was fully alive, capable of doing wonderful things if only I set my mind into doing productive things.
More than that, I enjoyed spending the sweaty afternoon with friends: Carla, AK and Christian. As each day passes by, every experience spent together enables us to build a deeper friendship...a relationship unbounded by the ties that work brings us. Then, I also got to meet a new set of friends, wherein hopefully, there'd be a future of happy moments to look forward to!
