"BACK TO MY HOME TOWN" AND REALIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER.

MAAYONG BUNTAG,MAAYONG UDTO, UG MAAYONG HAPON EVERY ONE!!
It's a great day to smile, even if we face problems. Let's cheer up those who feel down and show respect to those who are working hard.

In this blog post, we will delve deeper into my hometown, Lanas City in Naga Cebu. In my previous post, I only covered my house, garden, and livestock. However, in this one, I will take you on a tour of our bathing area, laundry area, and the place where we used to get our drinking water, among other things. So, let's explore!

Living in the province feels like you'll never run out of resources to sustain your daily needs. Plants are everywhere, free food is abundant, and water is readily available for free. However, while the water is free, you still need to work for it to make it accessible.

Without water our plants will die our goats and cow, carabao will thirst and die because of the lack of water. Of all the well our place has, our well is the youngest because it is built many years later after the others are built, this project came out by the reason that the other wells is not enough to sustain all the people who is living around our village.

"The person who constructed the well is a hero to those of us who live near it. We are grateful for the free access to clean water for bathing and drinking. It feels like a natural gift from nature, there are some wells that are not drinkable, but this one provides fresh water straight from the ground and it's drinkable. This natural water contains essential minerals that our body can absorb without any harmful side effects."

It has come to our attention that some of our wells have become contaminated due to people creating ponds on top of them for their carabao to bathe in. Unfortunately, these ponds emit a foul odor. However, the water from these wells can still be used for washing clothes and motorcycles, and some even use it to take a bath, despite the unpleasant smell. It is important to note that this water cannot be used for cooking rice.

Water is incredibly important for those of us living atop the mountain. Our lives would be unbearable without it. On March 24, 2024, the hot season begins and we are expecting a long drought. However, we are grateful to Naga correspondence who will send us a truck of water for us to use for washing our clothes and taking a bath. During this season, many people will go to great lengths to find water, even digging holes in the ground.

People living in cities face financial problems paying for their water meter, rather than water supply issues. And that's the advantage of those who live in mountain areas, even some time the drought comes.

green pastures

We are hoping that the rain will come to fill our mountains for our wells be functional. The mountain are the only supply or water because without our mountains there will be no water. That is why people should be grateful of what they have because they don't know their are some people risk their lives just to acquire it. Next time when you try to waste water just because you have enough supply, think about us, out your self on us and realize.

During this hot season don't forget this tips for us to save more water
Tip 1. What you used to wash is what you will use to flash.
Tip 2. Create a waterspout for the water to run through it and to your bucket when it rains.
Tip 3. Use your water responsibly

So that is our tour from my home town in this blog I hope you enjoy reading my blog and realize how important water is of some part of the world. Stay hydrated everyone let's prevent heat stroke by drinking enough water, and let us conserve the water we use everyday. Good bye and see you to my another blog, have a blessed week days every one.

Living in a place just like this is very fun and enjoyable. It is lucky you have a place far from any polluted areas. As for the water, this is very important to all, animals, plants and humans.

Indeed, fresh air and green pasture where you can relax your eyes 👀

Hope to visit your place soon. 😁

Loving in the province is truly amazing, especially, some of our needs is really accessible, but you really have to work harder just to get those. And yan naman ang masaya dun diba, uwu.

Well said ma'am 😉

Yhup water is very important. Water is the liquid gold.

Well said 😁

Water supply,that's our problem here for almost 3 months already, yet there's no glimpse of actions from the Barangay Officials. My husband will go to the other town just to fitch us water for daily use.

That is so sad ma'am, hope the barangay will use their initiative to help those in need

Relate much. 😊

Hahahahahahha Good luck sa parating pang mga Araw hahaha

Yeah. The stress of it. 🤣

Water crisis has been the main issue as of time even in my school. But, my family has been blessed with a source of water at home that is more than sufficient to my family's needs. Thanks to our Creator for the gift of water. Willing to share to my neighbors when they need it.

Tye summer is intense indeed, like sometimes if you wanna take a bath then you will realize there is no water and you make up your mind not to take a bath hahahahahah
