Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!

Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!

Sa mahalagang araw na ito, ibinabalik-alaala nating mga Pilipino ang Araw ng Kasarinlan ng ating bansa. Noong ika-12 ng Hunyo sa taong 1898, kumalas tayo nang buong layunin mula sa mga nagnakaw ng ating kalayaan matapos ang napakahaba’t magulong panahon. Ngunit, anupaman ang kalagayan ng ating bayan ngayon, anupaman ang mga suliraning ating dinaranas, tayo ay malaya, tayo ay Pilipino.

Google Doodle - Philippine Independence DayNagagalak naman akong ipag-alam na ang Google, na siyang pinakamalaking search engine sa kasalukuyan, ay nakipagdiriwang sa atin ngayon. Sa pamamagitan ng Google Doodles, naipararating ng Google sa buong mundo ang halaga’t diwa ng ating kasarinlan at dangal bilang Pilipino.

Heto po ang isang magandang paliwanag mula sa kababayan ko’t kapwa blogger na si Andrew dela Serna, ukol sa Google Doodles.

Mabuhay ang Pilipino! Isulong ang ating Kalayaan! Pugsain ang anumang balakid sa ating Kapayapaan!

NO TO CON-ASS!!!

Remembering the departed

Undas. Kalag-kalag. Day of the Dead. Technically — according to the Catholic Church — 1 November is actually All Saints’ Day; it’s the day after that’s supposed to be the day for remembering our departed relatives. But in traditional practice (one might even say it’s now part of our culture), millions of Filipinos troop to cemeteries on the 1st of November. That’s why each year, the President has to declare that day a non-working holiday.

(This year, even 2 November has been declared a holiday, by virtue of its being sandwiched between a holiday and the weekend. Is it logical? Go ask business owners. But that’s for another post….) Read the full story
