Gratitudes: Took Me Home To The Country Roads

They say that when the eyes need to relax, stare at something green. There's nothing like taking a break from the busy life in the city than going home to the province. The rains just made the scenery even more beautiful by making the rice field look greener and more alive.

We haven't had a decent reunion for a while and with the visit of my uncle and another cousin from overseas who just renewed her wedding vows, the family had more than enough reasons to come together.

I like to stroll along the field whenever I visit. Equipped with my wellies, I did my usual stroll. I'm not good in taking care of plants. This is quite ironic considering that these rice fields have helped my family get to where we are for generations. I spent a number of my summers here. My grandmother tried so hard to get me to learn how to speak Ilocano. Unfortunately, that's not our language at home, but I do understand and speak some of it. So, I think I'll survive.

It's also time for our generation of the family to take in more responsibilities in taking care of the farm. Although, currently, we've been more on doing investments for what the farm needs. Yesterday, my sister and I started talking about renovating our dad's house there. Now, that we have a new project. All we need is a plan.

That being said, time to look for country inspiration designs =)
