Hello 
im back again to share another story from my peaceful vacation in Lanao
a place that always feels like a second home to me. Every time i come here am reminded how beautiful and refreshing life can be when surrounded by nature and the loyal company of animals.
The first thing that always catches my heart is the view. From the hilltop the landscape stretches endlessly mountains gently rolling like waves wrapped in the soft mist of morning. The tall coconut trees sway in the cool breeze their leaves dancing under the golden touch of the sunrise. When the sunlight breaks through the clouds it feels as if the whole world wakes up, breathing new life into everything around..
Each morning i take a quiet walk with my two faithful dogs. They are always the first to greet the day running ahead tails wagging full of joy. There is something pure about their energy a kind of happiness that does not need words. One of them loves to lead the way while the other keeps looking back at me as if to make sure im not left behind. Their companionship makes the silence of the mountains even more comforting.
Not far from the house there is a horse grazing near the edge of the field. His brown coat shines under the sun and the sound of his hooves against the soil feels like a heartbeat of the countryside. I often stop to watch him while he rests under the shade of the banana trees. Sometimes the dogs approach him curiously and he just flicks his tail in calm response as if saying, i used to your company.” There’s a quiet understanding among animals that humans can rarely match..
The afternoons are just as breathtaking. When the sun begins to set, the sky turns into a canvas of gold, orange and purple. The trees stand tall as dark silhouetes while the horizon slowly swallows the light. It is a magical moment one that reminds me how precious simple days can be. I often sit there with my dogs beside me watching the sky fade into night. The cool breeze carries the scent of grass and soil and the only sounds are the distant calls of birds returning home.
Being here in Lanao gives me a kind of peace i cannot find anywhere else. Life in the city is fast and noisy, but here, time slows down. You begin to notice small things the texture of the clouds the rhythm of the wind, the way animals look at you with trust. These are the moments that remind me of what truly matters connection simplicity and gratitude.
I am thankful for this chance to breathe deeply again to reconnect with nature and to spend time with these gentle creatures who make every sunrise and sunset more meaningful. My heart feels light my soul refreshed..
Until my next visit,i wil carry these memories with me the mountains the animals the sunsets all reminders that beauty lives in the quietest corners of the world. 🌄🐕🐴🌴
Thank you and happy reading.. 😎
