Spending Time With Family at the Town Square

Taking an afternoon stroll with the family is something we rarely do. There is no particular reason, we are just not used to it. But that afternoon, our family went to the town square just to enjoy the afternoon atmosphere. The six of us rode motorbikes in pairs. That afternoon, the town square was really crowded. People were selling food, knick-knacks, and there were even horse-drawn carriage rentals. Everyone gathered in the district town square.

I had been here before the park was completed. Now, several years later, I returned and saw that the plants that were once small are now tall and lush. Everything had grown well and was well maintained. The only thing that was a bit disappointing was the waste management. Of course, this does not refer to the cleaning staff, but also to the visitors from all walks of life who still do not seem to realise the importance of maintaining cleanliness in public spaces or shared facilities like this.

I took several photos of my mother, and I realised that she was getting older and a bit thinner. But she is a mother who never gives up and is a hard worker. Most importantly, she is very patient. That is something I have not been able to emulate from my mother. Being patient. I, who tend to be emotionally volatile, feel ashamed when I see my mother's patience. Hopefully, as I grow, I can become more and more patient.

I also took a photo with my older sister; the three of us took a photo together. Don't we look different? Hahaha. That's true. So, because our parents had two daughters, everything was divided fairly. I look a lot like my late father, while my older sister is more beautiful because she has my mother's face. However, we grew up happily in our own ways. Even though I know my sister is more beautiful, I am also grateful for myself in many other ways.

I went around to the spots I used to visit. Some of the facilities were a bit damaged by the rain, such as the mini futsal field. There were also some plants that were bald and looked a bit neglected. But there were also beautiful flowers that were captured by my phone camera. A cluster of bougainvillea also bloomed brightly under the cloudy sky.

Finally, that afternoon we ate and walked around, then we went home happily. We hurried home before the rain fell again. Thank you for reading my writing. See you in the next one.
