The ReTreat.
October 21, 2008
Me and my classmate were on a Retreat at Calumpang last week, the exact date: October 16-17. We gathered at around 7:30 am in school last 16 before proceeding to the venue. At first looked at the place, reminded of the old ghost house what i saw on tv and movies….lol… but it was the place where the Passionists lived, (a group of seminaries – long before were Americans occupied the place, who happened to be the founders) a quite, where things we considered <font color=”red”>”makamundong bagay”</font> confiscated, such as cellphones, cameras, etc… pero OK, i’m used to it. I can live without those cellphones as long as the availability of foods were there.
We entered the retreat house with nothing to expect (gago0)….of course meron. We listened to the persons who conducted their lectures such as Ate A, which talked about our lives. We met Father Josefh and that two soon to be a PApa … joke lang… priests. They are kind naman, they enjoyed in our company…means we’re jolly to be with.
If you look at the pictures, all of those taken at the very end of our stay….at the last minute, in time to go home. We just take the time to come up a remembrance daw!… OK, kinda bitin but still we managed to do it. I really love the environment at all. Peace, Quit, wala kang gagawin all day basta makinig sa lectures and wait and wait for the next eating time. (Am I getting lazy?) Hope not! It was just I really wanted it… to be at peace and think of the things that I needed to have a peace first. To have a peace of mind, I guess.
