Unplanned Moment!
Enjoyment is not only found in celebrated occasions that are prepared and planned because sometimes moments that are sudden decisions and planned on the same day are also happy.
Good Day everyone, my body is a little tired from the swimming we did yesterday in the sea and even though I haven't slept yet, I came along so that we could bond with my siblings, wife and children.
I just came home from my work when my siblings and I decided to go to the sea with our respective families, and I don't know why we suddenly got along at that time. Since I had a cough for two days, I also wanted to swim in the sea to reduce my stress and relax from the tiring work. Soaking in the sea water is also good because it seems to relax the body and our timing was right earlier because the sea was very calm.
The sea we went to is not a beach resort and it is not a well-known place that people are often to visit. This is the place we chose because we prefer it to be quieter and not crowded so that we don't get overwhelmed by the place alone. This place is under the green trees, there are big rock formations that I just didn't take a picture because I was busy helping to prepare the food and this place has crystal clear sea water.
Besides everything is so quiet there that only our voices can be heard and even if we shout or make a loud noise no one else will get angry. And because our swimming wasn't planned, we weren't able to prepare ready-to-eat foods either. What we did was we cooked a lot of rice and we planned to buy meat and fish to make our dish. On our way, I bought 1.5 kilograms of chicken meat and I went to the fastfood chain where I am working to fry it and it was fine for me to do it even though I was not on duty as long as our supervisor was not there. In order to make a lot of our fried chicken, I cut the chicken meat into small pieces so that it doesn't run out immediately because we have many children with us and they are all my nieces and nephews. When we arrived at the place where my mother and I were going, we talked about what else we were going to buy in addition to our food.
One of my older brothers bought two pieces of big bangus or milk fish and my other older brother also bought chicken meat because he knows that I don't eat pork meat. And we also tried to go to the market in the nearby market to look for fish that could be grilled and we also bought two kilos because the price of a kilo of fish is a bit expensive so we only bought two kilos of it. And because that place was near at the sea so I'm really sure that the fish we bought was fresh.
While we were at the market, my wife collected some dry wood and put it on fire so that it would have coals to cook the fish we bought. What I didn't know was that someone brought them alcohol because they said they would drink it after we ate and since I don't drink alcoholic drinks, I just preferred to play in the sea with my nephews.
It's not difficult for us to go to the sea even though it's far from us because even though we don't have a car, we each have our own motorcycle and my mother has a tricycle that my older brother used to go there take the kids for a ride.
It was fun while we ate even though we didn't prepare much food, and we also brought a large ripe guyabano fruit and also a large ripe papaya that was picked last day from its trees that became our dessert. I don't know if it's just a coincidence because it was picked from the tree yesterday and it ripened right away. The guayabano was so sweet that I was really satisfied with every slice I ate.
I can truly say that when people get along a lot can be done if it is only wanted.
It was more fun while we were swimming because we were catching fish but it was very difficult because they swim very fast. Even children are happy to dive. It's funny because this is the only one we caught and I don't know the name of this shrimp.
We almost took 7 hours there because we arrived there at around 8 in the morning and we got home at around 2 in the afternoon. We also have to go home right away because of the children and we also have animals that need to be fed. And because I came from night shift duty last night so I haven't slept yet, when we got home I immediately fell asleep and I really felt the weight of my body that seemed to be a mixture of tiredness and sleepiness. But despite all that, I can really say that I really enjoyed our swimming yesterday .
Lesson:
When we want something, let's do it in a simple way to make not only ourselves but also our loved ones happy.
