As I waited for my mom to pick me up at the jeepney stop bound for Katipunanan in U. P., I found peace in the form of a bench under an acacia tree. I turned my back against the passing vehicles (which I half managed to block from my thoughts) and tuned my psyche to the peaceful setting in front of me-- the empty green tree-bordered sunken field. The not-so-sunny-weather-with-it’s-not-as-hot-as-usual-wind was the background music. The sidlings sprouting from the ground was my inspiration. Today, I found peace in the form of a bench under an acacia tree.
