There is always a place to find if you just want to. Money is indeed required to be in a certain place but sometimes you don't need to spend a penny. Just like this place I visited a few weeks ago. It was built because of religion but everyone is welcome to be here. I don't need to explain about religion because each one of us has different faiths and beliefs. What I'm trying to let you all understand is that you can be in this place despite religious differences.
The Shrine was built on a mountain. It is located where the view of the sea feels reachable. Just by reaching out your hand, the view will make you show it's touchable. It's a good spot for wondering if you are not feeling well. But well, it always depends on the person. Also, when you don't feel like going to crowded places. You know it's #marketfriday today by 
In the city of Maasin where the shrine is located, approximately 15 km from home, located in the next town. Actually, there are a lot of popular shrines and statues but this one is built the highest, and it is popular because of it. Some stories are told that this shrine grows bigger. I'm not saying it is true or not but from what I observed, it definitely is. I don't know why but it looks like it from the time I randomly visited it sometimes.
I'm not good at measurement but I think the stairs you need to climb to reach the shrine are approximately 2 km from the bottom. It is not far but due to its inclination that it feels like your knees can reach your jaw when you walk, it makes you tired for sure. But you will not be bored just by walking because you'll pass flowers beside the stairs.
Oh, I suddenly remember #allaboutflowers by the way. Upon seeing these different colors of bougainvillea with a bunch of flowers in a single plant, I felt amazed. I always love this flower even though it looks simple and very common. I found it very common because, in our small village, almost every house has this flower. Though it was planted in the plant, it never became as big as this. Even so, I never get tired of loving its beauty.
Just the images of this flower for you to understand why I was stunned when I saw this big flower plant of bougainvillea.
Anyway, it's not bad to visit this shrine once in a while. You can witness all the things you need if you want to be yourself alone or maybe with some but not too many companions. Let the wind blow your worries and boredom. Let the quiet place reclaim the "you" that might get tired.
What about you? What's the story of your Friday market today?
