At un, ibinigay nila ang kanilang sarili, we should give ourselves too for the cause of changing our nation. :)J.D.

I don't know, like JD down there, I can't really imagine myself not being Filipino... its just sad that we can't be the Filipinos our forefathers must've envisioned us to be.<br /><br />@JD: I got you, except I don't think we should think of it as "utang na loob", its more like "utang natin sa sarili natin" to be better than this.<br /><br />@Laura: I don't know how not being called a name makes any difference, but I get you.

"Then again, we only...Happy independence day!<br /><br />"Then again, we only traded foreign oppressors for local ones. And you know what's an even better news? We're actually paying them to do this to us." <br /><br />we share the same view. <br /><br />At least we werent called as indios as we were once tagged by the spaniards <br /><br />and <br /><br />I go with JD lim's comment.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00848837009803795136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5985004706434883532.post-64965022372055758422009-06-12T18:30:10.679+08:002009-06-12T18:30:10.679+08:00I guess I would like to still believe to what Quez...I guess I would like to still believe to what Quezon said more than 70 years ago:<br /><br />'I would rather have a government run like hell by Filipinos rather then a government run like heaven by Americans.'<br /><br />It's not that I think a government like hell is good for us but if I have to give up what my ancestors did for me to gain this independence, even though it doesn't really benefit me much, I won't nudge even a little in exchange of the 'heavenly' rule by other nations.<br /><br />Kumbaga, utang na loob.
