A creation (Mountain) welcomed another creation (climber)

~Climb mountains not for the world can see you but so you can see the world~
I'am asking myself sometimes why am I climbing mountains ? Is this beneficial ? Is it just trendy ? Is it just for me to have a social media post ?
Let me disclose it here.
It was on the last quarter of 2015 when my college batchmate Wang (Joshua) invited me on his so-called trip at Mt. Romelo,Siniloan Famy Laguna, Philippines.
After a lot of his convincing power, I gave a YES with this another companion with me (my co worker) and another from our batchmate.
Heading to siniloan Laguna took us for about 4-6 hours from Legarda Manila (Raymond bus).
We got there at around 4am. Registered from jump off, had a quick orientation or what we called as LNT (Leave No Trace) Principle and of course a prayer for our guidance up there.

(Fast forward)
Along the trail and finally reaching the mountain's summit, I can feel my heavy breathings not because of the occasional assaults but for what the nature and the mountain has to offer.
Green and Beautiful. ❤
I am truly blessed to have witnessed this kind of creation and that I am just small compared to this awesome one 🌄
That day onwards, when a mountain welcomed a climber. 😀

I know I can't fully share my feelings (blessed, excitement, happiness, fulfillment) up there, cause you have to experience it yourself. (Go, climb a mountain now 😊)

Note: attached photo is not Mt. Romelo as I dont have a clear photo back then. This is Mt. Binutasan in Tanay Rizal.
