As the world moves on with its many problems our Philippines continues to struggle with its movement towards prosperity & mature politics. Our leaders are still in the mode of vengeance & advancement of their selfish interests. The poor are patiently carrying on with their very minimal possessions to stay alive meaningfully. Sad that all dimensions of our social life have been politicized along partisan lines. We long for a leader who will unite us and inspire us to work harder to make our nation truly worth loving and fighting for.
BTW, today is the anniversary of the Cry of Pugad Lawin by the revolutionary Katipuneros in 1896, which sparked the short-lived Philippine Revolution.
