“When you feel blue,
Enjoy this beautiful hue.
A view you’ll see on top,
When you choose not to stop.”
This is the one-stanza poem that I made after climbing Mount Turong-Turong.
It is so awesome to enjoy the view while stretching your body. Two birds with one stone. When you go hiking, you will not only enjoy the view but also let your body do some stretching. Hiking doesn’t only benefit your emotions but also your physical health. So, if you haven’t tried hiking and you enjoy natural views, stop having second thoughts. Start hiking as soon as possible.
I can still remember the moment when I felt sad, and that’s why I went with my friends and did mountain hiking. I was heartbroken, and I just wanted to divert my attention and not think about the people who caused me pain. I thanked God that I made the right decision to go on this adventure.
I left home at 2 a.m. and rode my bike. We arrived at the foot of the mountain at 5 a.m. When I was at the mountain, I saw this beautiful golden hour where the sun started to peek up from the mountain as it rose. The beautiful painting in the sky, as it turned orangey because of the sunrays, made me stop hiking and just enjoy the view. I stood there and reflected on how jaw-dropping the view was.
This adventure did more than serve its purpose of diverting my attention. It didn’t only divert my attention but also made me reflect on how we should not magnify the negative things about being hurt or feeling unfair. Instead, we can choose to reflect on and magnify the truth that it is our choice to choose positivity or negativity.
This awesome scenery that I saw didn’t only divert my attention but also changed my emotions.
So, “If you’re feeling blue, enjoy this beautiful hue.”
