A letter I wrote on my notebook for myself 05-25-2019. Revised version:
"Kalesa Ride"
Dear Future-self,
Little by little I am trying to tick the remaining boxes of my bucket-list. Today, I had my first-ever Kalesa Ride, and after that awful experience, I don't want to ever ride it again.
I just feel pity over the poor horse. It had to carry the burden of the people riding it. The horse carried not just the burden of one man, but also that of the owner's family. Without the horse, he would loose his livelihood of a five peso per person each ride. Without it, he won't be able to afford to feed his family and they would both be hungry and in debt.
I realized that in each family, there will always be a horse who would carry all the burdens. But if each of us becomes that horse, and carry the equal amount of burden on our backs, then it wouldn't be as heavy as it would be for only one horse.
Love,
Present-self (@22)
