Wake up Pinoy!

Tell me! Are you really anxious to where are we heading? And do you think you really want for a change? In the present flow of things, I am in doubt that most Filipinos are hunger for a change - maybe tomorrow.

It is a fact that the behavior of the citizens of any country determines where a country is heading. You can even talk the whole year round with theories and plans for changes, but all will end up a futile attempt if it lacks a sense of seriousness and focus. Please, think about this: Do you think there is seriousness in ones effort if someone will just end up laughing at the flaws and ineffectiveness he noticed? If your answer is "yes," then you are going against all logic.
Filipinos like anybody else know what's the problem. But only few of us have taken the initiative to do his part of the effort. On the contrary, I am always hearing jokes suggesting the acceptance of wrong doings in the society. If we are really aiming for that change, we shall put an end to this kind of attitude, which have unwittingly found way to our normal way of thinking. In the media, for example, I have always been hearing broadcasters throw that seemingly harmless jokes of incompetence, mal-practice, and etc. to unwary listeners unsuspecting of its degenerative effects on their morals. And because the majority are uneducated to its harmful effects on their psyche, every time they hear it, they just laugh about it; which is, in fact, an act of acceptance.

Now is the time to put a stop to this unwholesome attitude and inclination. I know that speaking is easy than actually doing it; but, we have to, there's no other way - if we want a better life for all of us.
