Since the last time I blogged, there just has been too many things/stuff going on, so I haven't really gotten the time to update the blog that much. Although, in a reality that seems to be filled with endless hypes and fads of sorts, you can really get caught up in the flow of that wild rapid. I wish to blog about my nation. In the political setting of my country-a democratic, yet seems to be an oligarchy in some areas-you don't really know what to believe. From the most heartfelt advertisements during elections, to the very strong speeches they deliver; you gotta ask yourself, is their an agenda? Lately, I really don't find the point in caring anymore, because in our nation, you are nothing without power.

For now I concentrate in making the lives of others better, anyway I can, and along the way learn more about why I'm living. Conditions don't seem to be changing for any of us. I don't blame anyone, because putting blame on someone just shows you have no faith in the goodness of people around you. Unfortunately, in a country that used 'UNITY' to beat a leader drunk with power, it isn't that unified at all; not one bit. The whole 'crab mentality' hype is always thrown around a lot, and somehow it seems to be spreading. Upon reading articles, comments and opinions about the Azkals and the PH Dragonboat team being compared, I just couldn't accept it. Why can't we support both of them? I mean, at the end of the day, they're doing this for our country and nothing else. Both teams were never cared for, and no one ever gave a damn whether they won or lost, they were just there. But thanks to some die hard fans of both sports taking notice, they both started to get the recognition they deserve. Yes, the Azkals are hitting the front page of the media a lot lately, but that doesn't mean we should compare a team that is still developing in their field. 5 Gold medals, is not easy to do; especially for a team that has nothing but their dedication and passion as sponsors when they face other countries.

They all just want the best for our nation; being that we aren't really in the spotlight of the global setting both economically and socially. The next time you see a Filipino do greatness, smile and be proud. The next time a Filipino does something stupid or wrong, it doesn't mean all are the same. One rotten apple doesn't destroy them all; no one's perfect. So tomorrow, I wish to walk out to face my everyday and hope that people will start to think more about others, than to think about themselves. Remember "Love your neighbors as you love yourselves", NEIGHBORS come 1st; think about it.
