The Road Where We Live...

One day our lord and mistress (the Baranggay Captain and the Congresswoman) were finally able to grant us that grace that we have been wishing for quite sometime already. Our old stony not to mention very dusty road was replaced with a concrete one. The plan to make it concrete was actually conceived some ten years back, but it sat in the City Engineer’s office waiting for the right signature, the right time and most importantly that much needed funding. 

Finally after 10 long dusty and muddy years, after 2 Baranggay captains, a few elections in between, and perhaps 2 meteor showers (which were probably instrumental in granting our wish), our road has finally underwent a facelift and became concrete.

The kids immediately showed their appreciation, took control of the road, and played to their hearts' content. Thank God, these kids chose to forego the internet games and decided to play street games instead. Or else they would have missed enjoying the freedom and the highs that comes from running around under the clear sunny skies...
