"How does it feel to live in a 3rd world country?" an ex-filipino asked with a smile. i said, "well, Philippines a very good country. Welcome to the third world country. Welcome to world's Pearl of the Orient. With all the poverty crisis, we were still able to cope up with the so called "globalization". Yeah most of the time it's hard to live and just to stand by and that crimes are easily found in the city. but Filipinos have a very good heart. we are poor but we still love one another. we don't want want anyone of us to get hurt. We don't have big fonds to just spend for something unncessary. Because of war in Lebanon, many Filipinos have to suffer the consequences, anyone may die without any of their relatives knowing. But the goverment didn't let that thing happen. they evacuated a lot of Filipinos there. We Filipinos know how to prioritize. We know what to do forst. Because of poverty, because of being in a 3rd world country, we are determined to get over it. We are rich in love. We are determined to be a totally different country. We are rich in natural resources but because of love to our motherland, we decided to conserve and preserve it. but what did you do first world countries? the so called upper class? How does it feel to destroy and to own something that is not yours? " He stopped. have i annoyed him with my answer? or have i just made a good stand?
Isn’t it stupid that we allow a person whom we barely know and whom we just met to destroy the fruits of our past and to dictate our future by investing all our emotions in the belief that he/she can provide the happiness that we would need to last our lifetime? Isn’t it amazing how society can make us believe that we can leave the very people who have molded us into who we are just for this certain “special someone”? Isn’t it ironic how almost everyone subject themselves to emotional anxiety and pains in search of what they call ‘LOVE’, when in fact, nobody can even provide a single (and universally accepted) definition of this word, when nobody can guarantee an end when the journey begins? It only hurts when I’m awake. In my dreams you love me more. You let me hold you for as long as I want to and you never let go or back away from me. You let me kiss you in public no matter how passionate or sensual that kiss may be. You listen to everything I have to say even if they don’t mean j...

anyway. you made a good stand, although you offended that ex-filipino. :) yes, america is a very progressive country. but they use their resources in a wrong tune. they make tanks and weapons and everything.
