So this afternoon I have decided to snap some photos of my mother's plants 'cause she is a proud PLANTITA. And these are some of her beloved plants.
Living in the province for so long made me appreciate the simplest of things. The fresh air from the sea breeze really lifts you up. There is little to none pollution if you're living in the province. Although sometimes I really miss the busy streets of the city the simple things that the province can offer can really make you wanting to stay here.
I think my mother called these plants "Mayana". Here in Southern Cebu the mayana plants were used as a first aid medicine to minor wounds. I grew up believing that mayana and hagonoy can turn me
into a "Mananambal" or a person who heals using traditional and natural methods of healing alongside with dark magic.
I tried to capture the sunset but this majestic coconut tree blocked the view. Coconut trees or in Cebuano we call it 'Lubi". Coconut trees were dangerous you never know when a coconut fruit will drop that's why we were always alert whenever we passed by.
