Hello dear Hiveans!! How are you all today? I hope you're all doing well and are all blessed.
One of our goals, which has become a daily routine here in the countryside, is to spare time to regulate and energize our bodies through walking and exercising. We take turns doing this because the three of us can't go together at the same time. Our two fur babies need a companion at home, too, especially our toy poodle, Arashi. So, it's either my husband and my daughter, then me and my husband, and sometimes my daughter and I will go for a walk together while my husband takes care of our fur babies.

One of the places that I visited during our early morning walks was the Divine Mercy Shrine. I already posted my first visit there with my husband. I really love it there. It's so calm and relaxing. The views from uphill are so mesmerizing and amazing. And the chapel is so serene and solemn. And that's what I love the most. Itβs a great place to meditate and offer a heartfelt prayer.
So, I promised myself that I should come back and bring some candles to light, as there is a place for it and for the offerings.

Thatβs why I went back there with my husband to fulfill my promise.

We wanted to go to the station of the cross uphill too, but we didn't know the exact direction to go up there, and there was no one we could ask at that time, maybe because that was still too early.
Maybe next time, or after my husband and my daughter go there first, and then if they think that I can manage to go up there, then for sure one of them will accompany me in going to the station of the cross, too.
After offering our prayers, the oldies took some selfies as a keepsake...hehehe π



Then we decided to walk back home. On our way home, I noticed this beautiful young mango tree.

The color of the young leaves is so attractive that it caught my attention, so I immediately took a photo of it. Isn't it beautiful...?
We also dropped by the wholesale store(our suki) and bought something for our own store. We also dropped by the bakery to buy some bread for our breakfast. But I forgot to take photos. When we reached home, my daughter and the two fur babies were on the open terrace already, doing their walk too. When Arashi saw us, he then excitedly ran to us...well, particularly to me, and as always, he wanted me to carry him. Max was so happy and excited to see us back home, too.

This is how our daily morning routines are here in the countryside. After our breakfast, we will do each other's tasks at home. My daughter @tegoshei is on her job. My husband is at our mini sari-sari store in the garage, and will do some other chores, preferably outside the house. And as for me, I always do the cleaning inside and outside the house, and of course, cooking for our meal. Then taking care of the garden together in the afternoon.
Well, it's a great feeling that I already have this chance to walk outside and enjoy the atmosphere and the greenery. Unlike in the city, I could only do indoor exercises. That's why I am so grateful and so happy with our life now, even if we are still slowly recovering from our loss due to the devastating typhoon and severe flooding.
And promise I will go back again and again to the shrine and explore some of the beautiful scenery here in the countryside.
I'll just end my post here for now and see you around in my next post. Thank you so much for stopping by, and God bless..πππ
isn't it great how excited dogs get to see you every single time they see you? I have no dog here in Thailand but I have some friends who do and they just get so excited when I visit (I bring treats) that they look like their tail is going to turn into helicopter and make them fly away.
Weβre already used to walking around.
Good thing you made it back to the shrine.
Such a calming a meaningful morning routine. I love to visit a place like this too.
