a memory long forgotten

this entry has become somewhat like a political ad....
but i think its better to publish this....
it wouldn't hurt if people get to read this....
at least something was expressed in this entry....
although i'm not good at expressing myself....
i think this entry would do....
a new face in the middle of all the rants and sad stories....
this is not about me....
it's about the Philippine Society....

February 25, 1986
the day Filipinos held each others hands to fight for liberty....
the day the Filipino people proved how powerful teh majority is....
the day our country was liberated from the dictator....
the day our country first plunged into darkness....

most people view the EDSA People Power 1 as the proof of our country's strength....
we are proud of the event....
after this historical happening, foreign countries have somehow looked up to us with pride....
truly, this is a very significant part of our country's history....
but its true meaning and contribution to our country is not yet understood....
different views are given by different people....
all based on their own biases....

as the Filipino people celebrate the 19th year celebration of the EDSA People Power I,
may all of us reminisce the true significance of this event instead of revivng past issues and creating new things to fight over....
instead of pointing fingers and blaming each other for the country's problems....
let us all join hands and build a better country....

it could be difficult....
but it's worth to try....
