independence day
happy independence day to all pinoys out there in this blogosphere, its been 111 years (i guess, you do the math) since someone or was it aguinaldo? declared the independence of our country in the veranda of his house a hundred years ago
its was a big step back then after almost 300 years of hispanic slavery, declaring independence was like giving the whole country its identity separating it from all its past colonial masters
i guess we all need a dose of nationalism these days, the younger folks seem to be mesmerized with anything western of origin (i dont want to sound like im old)
the past is always our operating manual to the future its alwaysed linked, i think we we should always find a way back to our ancestral roots, look back, appreciate and be thankful...
this is a gigantic glutinous flag shaped puto, independence is truly sweet
