Hello mga kamita! Kamusta kayo dyan?

Tignan niyo naman dyan. Ito ang kagandahan ng Cordillero region.

Unfortunately, hindi na ganyan na bagyo.

But the good news is we don't have to go too far away para makita natin yung mga lugar na ganito.

Hindi na kailangang pumunta ka all the way to Sagada, Banaue.

Actually, over the horizon, mga kamita, makikita niyo dyan parang mga clouds na ganyan.

Yung super ganda na ganyan. Parang snow-capped mountains.

Yan po yung Pulag. Yan po yung Pulag na napuntan namin.

Twice na kami nakapunta doon throughout the years.

Beautiful! It's just gorgeous. Look at it, mga kamita.

Yan talaga yung kagandahan talaga ng Pilipinas sa iba.

I mean, of course, yung isang week pinag-usapan natin Madrid, Europe.

Napakagandang Madrid, Europe. How much we enjoy the landscape,

the architecture, the sense of history and all.

But iba pa rin para. Iba pa rin mga kamita pag ating bansa talaga.

So, these are the kinds of views that give me a really refreshing sense of perspective.

Talaga makikita mo how small and miniscule we are and our problems and dramas are

compared to the beauty and the majesty of nature.

You know, in its pure, pure form.

Well, not so pure anymore. Medyo doon baka pure.

Pero dito medyo ano.

So, dito po, guys, by the way, ito yung mga Northern Blooms area.

So, around one and a half hours away from Baguio.

So, kanina, mag-agaw, mag-agaw, malis tayo para makarating dito

ng before sunrise or at least sunrise time.

So, may mga pipa ka before sunrise, after sunset drama pa tayo dito.

Na, yun ang parati natin sinasabi, mga kamita.

It's important that you take care of your mental health.

You take care of yourself.

Alam nyo na, mga kamita, medyo birthday na rin natin na malapit na.

So, kailangan na natin medyo mag-moonie-moonie.

Noon na inisip ko kaya actually na pumunta sa Sagada or Banaue,

which hindi ko pa napuntaan.

But upon reflection, naisip ko siguro dito na lang para makasama din yung pamilya natin.

Kasi mahirap e kung Banaue ganoon, baka mahirapan si daddy.

At baka mahirapan rin sila tita, etc.

But dito marapit lang, so I just thought it's perfect to come here.

Since it's not too far away from February at saka the bloom time,

you can see the flowers and all are still...

Well, they're more or less still intact, no?

Nag-blossom parang sila fully.

So, medyo nag...

Yeah, we needed that.

Kasi mga kamita, the past year, thank God, was amazing.

I have no complaint.

I mean, as difficult as things have been, as challenging as things have been,

as many stressful nights and stressful moments,

as many as existential questions and all that you face,

paranoias, fears and all,

I would say that I'm still absolutely grateful.

Salamat sa Diyos.

At salamat sa Diyos na binigay tayo ng mga supporters na katulad nyo.

Alam ko medyo virtual lang tayo.

But of course, marami din tayo mga kamita na na-meet dyan sa Session Road the other night.

Tambay lang tayo.

Nakipag-chismisan maritas lang sa mga kaibigan natin ng Tagabagyo.

Liklang mga daming kamita rin nakikipicture sa atin.

So, thank you very much sa mga kamita.

Na-appreciate talaga natin yan.

So, yun.

Basta, naalala nyo, mga one and a half months ago,

talaga nagkareklamo tayo na burn out na talaga tayo.

And talaga you get burn out, guys, if you lose a sense of perspective,

if you lose track of anong nagbibigay ng kaligayahan sa'yo,

anong nagbibigay ng sense of purpose sa buhay mo,

at sino ang mga mahalaga sa buhay mo.

So, I think that was a very important thing for me to constantly remind myself.

My roots, saan ako galing,

what things I had to overcome to be where I am.

There's this beautiful quote actually by one of my favorite philosophers,

and of course statesman, Si Marcos Aurelius, who says something like,

you know, it is not about wanting what you don't have,

but it's about wanting what you already have.

And remember the time when you wanted to have what you already have right now.

So, very important to keep in mind,

the blessings you have, and the privileges you have,

and also the obligations that you have.

Ang tendency kasi natin, mga kameta, ayoko bara-bara.

I'm always anticipatory.

Try to anticipate what's the next thing for the country.

Recently, mga kameta, we have this kind of anticipatory anxiety.

Something we cannot help. It's just part of who I am.

What helps me to properly analyze geopolitics,

to properly sometimes even predict where countries go, where leaders go.

Of course, in a way, na-predicting natin saan pupunta ang Pilipinas

pagdating sa ating political system,

medyo na-analyze din natin,

na-predicting natin yung direction na ating foreign policy

under Marcos Jr., so on and so forth.

But there's a downside to that kind of anticipatory anxiety,

that constant analytic bent.

Si Charles Darvey nga, ang reklamo siya once upon a time,

sabi niya, parang once he heard this beautiful music

when he was passing through one of the colleges in Oxford,

and he missed the days when his mind was not in this fully scientific mode

of always breaking down data and trying to make sense out of it

in a technical, rational, data-driven way.

He wanted to have just this innocent, pure embrace of the moment.

Yung ganon. Yun yung nawala sa kanya.

So I think it's also very important sometimes to re-embrace

yung more innocent, more instinctive, more unmediated side of you.

Post-rational, uber-rational side of you.

Yan. So yun. So yun po yung ginagawa natin.

So, yeah, even if medyo wala tayong tulog kanina,

I have to make sure we come here.

Alam niyo naman, nagkakameta lang natin kagabi, di ba?

Tapos sumuwi tayo, nagtrabaho pa tayo, etc.

Sabi ko, konting power nap, then go.

Because this is really worth it, guys.

At yun ang kagandahan din dito, guys,

hindi naman kailangan na kumuha ka pa ng visa,

gagastos ka, or hantayin mo na maswertahan ka,

imbitayin ka, all of that.

Mahal siyempre mag-travel abroad, di ba?

Especially kung Europe, US, mga ganon.

Tsaka yung mga bansa na yung mga weather ay ganito.

Of course, magandang Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia.

Okay, Thailand. But hindi ganon, e.

Hindi ganon, e.

Although, I mean, Malaysia has Genting,

and, you know, you have Chiang Mai in Thailand.

But still, it's not the same. Cordillera is something else, mga kameta.

And it's a sight to behold.

I really, really appreciate it.

This is...

It just gives me this...

Zen, e.

Zen talaga, e. Zen, mga kameta.

Anyway, chinicheck din natin yung mga schedule ng mga movies dito sa Baguio.

Yung movies pagdating sa Oras de Peligro.

And ano yung, ano?

Maiden Marites 2.

Yan, Maiden Marites 2.

Kailangan din natin i-check yan.

Unfortunately, mukhang medyo nahihirapan tayo maghanap ng...

place to watch yung Ako Si Ninoy.

But hopefully, we can watch it over Netflix or other streaming devices later.

Hindi naman tayo binigyan ng special access, no?

But I'm hoping to catch at least...

while also catching sleep,

to catch at least a glimpse of yung mga Oras de Peligro

and also Maiden Marites 2.

Ano yung mga nilagay nila yan?

Anyway, proud naman si Cesar Montano.

So, tignan natin yan.

At guys, alam mo nyo naman,

fair tayo when you analyze things.

We, you know, even if it doesn't drive with my polygon inclination,

I try to appreciate things on their own terms.

So, di ba, nung...

Last year, di ba?

Last August, na-analyze natin yung Maiden Marites 1.0.

Pinakita ko ano yung potential strengths niya.

Not necessarily as an artistic device,

although it has its strengths as an artistic device,

but also as a propaganda device, no?

Yun po tinignan natin.

Alright, mga kameta.

Maraming salamat.

Balikan natin na may mga driver duties pa tayo.

But in the meantime, I really...

I really appreciate this chance to share with you guys

yung mga, ano natin,

mga little moments of joy natin here and there

na hindi kailangan magastos,

na hindi kailangan...

Oh, ito yung mansion natin, guys.

Welcome to my mansion.

Hindi ganoon.

Simpleng tao lang.

Ayan.

So, catch up din tayo, no?

Sa Maiden Marites 2.0 at sya ka,

or sa Peligro.

Hopefully, they're really good

because I want to make sure these things are worth my...

Di ba?

Andami pwedeng gawin, e.

Andami kailangang gawin.

Andami kailangang basahin.

Andami kailangang analyze.

Alright?

Thank you very much, mga kameta,

and enjoy the view,

and talk to you soon.

God willing.

Alright?

Appreciate it.

May salamat.
