Culture Shock

We Filipinos are known all over the world for being passionate, hospitable and religious. Colonize with different foreign continent had made us who we are today. It’s a given fact that in spite of these qualities we are still in poverty. Being raise in the slump enables me to see the perseverance and the struggle of my so called society. These alone had brought many significant realizations that no matter how harder we try to rise out from poverty we still are in debt with the government.

What the heck! Don’t you think it’s ironic that the government itself continues to propagate agendas which lead to frustrating motives that would lead to other additional expenses to the people? Burdened with personal responsibility plus this excessive baggage’s is way too much for Juan to acquit. Being in this dilemma is a curse!

My heart is committed in this country, though there are countless times opportunities knock right at my doorstep I still stick my shoes in this consecrated ground. Some of my friends had fled and have taken flight for greener pasture, while I take my battle in this oppressed reality of corrupt politician lurking in the government with their abundant lies of public service for their own personal gain. The f**k! Our intellect may not be that superb but where completely aware that where this country is heading, and your leaving it right straight to its grave! How I wish it’s as easy as to pull the trigger or as simply erasing the writing in the board to create new reforms and better  governance solely dedicated for the people. 

I pray that my children’s children will be inherited with what my heart’s desire. I pray for a new reform, I pray for a new government. 

Damn this government! Damn with this politics!
