came up with this list because i believe that these are simple concrete ways that we can show our love for our beloved Philippines.
i guess some people might find it hard to follow...:)
nonetheless, here is it.
1. SPELL OUR COUNTRY’S NAME CORRECTLY.
That is P-H-I-L-I-P-P-I-N-E-S!
Yeah one L and two P’s.
Now in the event that you’ll get confused, I suggest that you’d rather spell it in Tagalog.
PILIPINAS it is, kababayan
2. EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO SUFFRAGE. Well, actually it’s not by merely voting that you can show love for your country but by voting the right, uhm, I should say, the UPright people for the various government posts.
Now if you are really concerned with our fellow Filipinos’ lot, then we ought to take a concrete step… we have to vote the right ones. If there is none on the list, just leave it blank so that you won’t harbor any guilt later on.
3. BE A SOLUTION TO PROBLEMS. Say, you cannot be a solution to our political, social, financial, and economic and whatever problems there may be, AT LEAST, DO NOT BE A PROBLEM!
We have so many problems to attend to and to simply put it, WE CANNOT ATTEND TO YOU SHOULD YOU BECOME A PROBLEM YOURSELF!
4. QUIT SMOKING so that you can concretely take a step against AIR POLLUTION.
5. DO NOT TALK NON-SENSE so that you won’t add up to the chaos brought by the noise around.
6. DO NOT CHEAT IN CLASS so that you can CONVINCE OTHERS THAT YOU DENOUNCE CORRUPTION!
Cheating, even just in the classrooms, is dishonesty no less than corruption.
7. DO NOT PATRONIZE DRIVERS WHO PARK THEIR JEEPNEYS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET not minding the traffic they cause just to get passengers. THEY ARE LAME SELFISH PEOPLE WHO ONLY THINK OF THEMSELVES and not of OTHERS.
Come to think of it, a lot of people still earn without compromising the rules.
8. DO NOT RUN FOR GOVERNMENT OFFICE WHEN ONLY YOU AND THE PEOPLE CLOSEST TO YOU SAY THAT YOU ARE CAPABLE OF “SERVING” IN THE GOVERNMENT!
There are two points I wanted to convey to you on this:
First, we have a bias to ourselves. It’s possible that we and the people closest to us may highly exaggerate and sensationalize what we can do.
Second, service knows no bounds.
NEEDLESS TO SECURE A GOVERNMENT POST when you REAL DESIRE is to SERVE OTHERS.
9. BE REACTIVE IN A PROACTIVE WAY. When you clamor on something, be sure to offer solutions to it. React if you must, then act on it ASAP :)
10. BE RESOLVEDTHAT YOU, an individual, ARE ACTUALLY A MAJORITY! Whatever you do creates an IMPACT to the whole society. The kind of society you want to belong in should be reflected in your actions. Everything you want to realize starts with no else but YOU! :)
11. AVOID DISCUSSIONS THAT WILL PUT OUR COUNTRY INTO A BAD LIGHT. Do not broadcast unhealthy comments about our kababayans, there is always a better channel to do it.
12. IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE TO TRAVEL ABROAD, LEARN AS MUCH AS YOU CAN AND PUT THOSE LEARNING INTO ACTION BACK HOME. we identify those things and processes that are workable in the country, we share it with to as much people as we can reach.
13. CELEBRATE PINOY TRIUMPHS! Whenever there is an achievement of a fellow Filipino, broadcast it. On this, let's make the technology work for us, let's utilize their worth. We have to share with the world how great we are as a nation.
14. WHEN YOU INTRODUCE YOURSELF ABROAD, NEVER FAIL TO HIGHLIGHT THAT YOU ARE A FILIPINO. Always carry that Filipino Pride wherever you go. We are all ambassadors of the country once we go abroad, so MPP! (Make Philippines Proud!)
15. MEMORIZE THE FAST FACTS ABOUT THE COUNTRY BY HEART. If we truly love our country, we ought to know the important things that pertain to it. How many islands are there? hmmm... High tide or Low tide? ^^
16. UNCEASINGLY PRAY FOR OUR COUNTRY AND FOR ALL THE FILIPINOS AROUND THE WORLD. AMEN.
