Park

For children, it’s amusement; for adults, it’s togetherness

At Intramuros, I noticed one family at the park. They likely chose the place because they had kids with them. Young children need to be in a safe and stimulating environment to have fun. Wide open spaces of the park give them both.

Adults generally take a backseat at family outings. They know that it’s not where you are, or what you’re doing, but who you’re with that matters. The pandemic restrictions remind us that togetherness is happiness – no matter how mundane the activity can sometimes be.
