Today is Philippine Independence Day! A day to commemorate our freedom from the colonial rule of Spain a century plus a decade and 2 years ago. I salute our National Heroes and those who paid the high price for the freedom that we are currently enjoying and their love for country else, our lives could have been different. Unfortunately,  this freedom have been long taken for granted and perhaps abused. Decades after gaining our independence, the love for country is not that evident, its more of a world where everyone fends for himself and is looking after his own interest.
 
The result of the recently concluded elections may just bring about hope and progress for our country. I am hoping that with the new leaders, love for country will be rekindled and passed on to the new generation.  I am still hoping that there will be a realization that this freedom comes with great responsibility and self-regulation within bounderies. When this is realized and practiced, then possibilities for a better Philippines and brighter tomorrows may be realized. Perhaps we ought to put the " Bayanihan " spirit alive again to work together and enjoy the merits this freedom which we can preserve for the future generations.

Get my drift? =)
