Weekend Journal: Bonding With Teens & Good Friends To Embrace The Mist We Can’t Resist

Revisiting Highlands On A Foggy Day



For this blog, I just want to share the significance of personal time-out. I consider it beneficial especially when everyday we deal with online activities in the virtual world. Sedentary life easily makes me burned out. It can only be resolved when I go out, see the world, enjoy the creation, meet friends, eat and laugh. That’s a treasure I hold dear. It is neither how grand the place is nor how fancy is the dish to share but to embrace the moment to whom I am with and to where I am at.

Hello dearest Hivers especially at @asean.hive! How's the week going? We're already in the middle of the week, right? Happy hump day to all.

Before my place will officially be under the sunny weather for summer, it was a delight to go out with my teens and spent foggy moments with friends. Quick as it was but its vital thread will forever be seamed in the tapestry of memories.

This looks like I am facing a faint-gray-painted-wall, but halt, it's a sea of mist I enjoy to be surrounded with and glad my daughter had captured this moment.

Painted smiles on our faces reaching through our eyes. When was the last time you smiled and your eyes were smiling too? For me that is the most heartfelt smile, healthy to our soul and well being. Ever wondered what makes us smile that comes from our heart? It is the state of our heart that makes us so. A heart that's grateful, free from guilt and whatever's weighing it down. So, what's the state of your heart today? Hope we can share it out at the comment section below.😍😇

My teens with their childhood friend. A friend since Day 1 of Nursery at school. They were inseparable since then. From classroom to playground, and even at homes on weekend. Watching them manage their friendship well is heart melting. They had fights too and made up. They tease each other and lift each other up. They like to talk about precious childhood dreams, work out their curiosities in life, do homework together, and regularly celebrate each others milestone. In its innocence, I can't deny that their friendship is enviable. It is my hope that you and I will continually be blessed with such kind of admirable friendship regardless of age.😍😍

Upon wrapping this up, there was one precious thing I learned from our beautiful, elderly friend. She told us that out from the longevity of her life, there were only few and simple words to describe the significance of her journey in life. She said that we must be able to forgive those who hurt us and pray for them so we could be fully healed too; love for it is just right to love as it keeps the world going; and with that we can live a peaceful life, for a life-long success. FORGIVE, LOVE, and LIVE. Again my mind realized something, it's not just only good to say "rest in peace" when someone passes away for he/she won't hear it anymore, but, it is also a right thing to say "live in peace" to everyone while still alive and kicking to make a remarkable life. So, here's to you my friend....."live in peace and keep a beautiful heart!"


Thank you for the time and being with me until the end of this blog. See you around as I send you hugs from afar😍😇😍

Getting outside and connecting with friends, enjoying the world and sharing a meal can truly reset everything. It's the moment spent laughing, and exploring that makes the journey worthwhile.

Hi @gretelarmfeg, so true. It's a treasure to cherish until forever. Sending you a big smile from afar😊

Exactly 😊 Hugs 🥰

what a beautiful sight. i love overviews so much . because of its cold weather. you are having a great time. I love your photos.

Hello @krissymayol! You would surely love this place especially with a weather like this added with a little drizzle while breathing the grassy breeze. Air is so fresh that we feel like staying for good hahahaha. I am happy you liked the photos. Thank you for singing by teach. Sending hugs!😇

That's true, we need to unwind, and free our minds from the mundane tasks that we do everyday. Nice realization about forgiveness in order to have a peaceful mind. That can really be challenging to do especially towards people who have caused us so much pain. But forgiveness is also part of one's healing and peace...

Hello @bettsmarie09. Yes, it is not easy to forgive. And in many cases, we can't seem forget the deeds after forgiving the person hurting us. It takes time and only possible when we dwell with His presence daily. Thank you for swinging by😇😍

Yes staying too much I'm front of a screen make me burn out too and increase my depression by the way it's nice hang out even in the mist ❤️

Hi @noemilunastorta. Yeah, too much indoor stay heightens depression, and going outdoor taking a walk, breathe some fresh air, smile and talk to the one you meet are a big help. Thank you for coming by. Sending a big, arm smile😇😉

I have always enjoyed foggy/misty days when I was growing up, feeling it on your skin is so refreshing, and it adds a bit of wonder and a mysterious atmosphere. Your family seems so happy also, it makes me smile to see genuine happiness on people's faces. I really love your message at the end "live in peace" this is something I think more people need to remember that life is worth living and enjoying while we can. Thank you for sharing! :)

Hi @giathebao! Sending you a big and warm smile from a distance. Thank you for swinging by.....😇😊

Such a foggy and a very beautiful place, you and your family have a great time together. I hope we can visit this place too soon.

Hi @ronimarie82. Yes visit the place soon with the family. You will sure to enjoy and will create memories worth the while. Thanks for stopping by😇

A very precious moment shared with the whole beautiful family. I love your solo pic with a foggy, pale grey sky background, teach. And oh your genuine smiles made me smile too.

Hello teach. Good noon out here😍. That solo pic I consider a good one. That was the time I enjoyed few minutes of me-time in the midst of that fog when daughter took a candid shot. Glad she did. Thanks for coming by teach @celestyne15 😇
