How many mixed emotions can you fit into one place?
Ate Pen and a Pastora in Cavite brought me to the Landfill area in Cavite.
Entering the area you pass through a grave site but the tombs are not layed in the ground they are built up on a platform or a small house is made around them. Once you get past the graves then comes the garbage. And the homes.
There is a whole community that lives in this landfill area. So many parents and many more kids. Thousands.
We met many people from the church (yes, the church is in the dump) and their kids.
I was so overwhelmed and wondering how these little naked kids could grow up in such a place.
The ocean.
The landfill is placed right on the ocean. I had not noticed it. It looked like a beach of garbage.
I didn't even know what to think. Or how to feel.
