As
we celebrate the 121st Celebration of Independence day, we are
reminded on how great those people who spared their lives in exchange of our
freedom. Blood by blood, life in exchange of million lives. Battled using
sphere, hand by hand, with roaring soul and empowered minds. They conquered and
fought for our Inang Bayan.
How greatly it is and such an honor
to be in this country. A home of the greatest people who battled for us. The
history of our place, every shed of blood that marked every island on our
country. The breath of those who died for us, to save us and to spare our
lives, to give us freedom to move and regain our democracy. It wasn’t their job
to save us, but they did. They fought in different ways. Some used their ink
and paper and some battled using heavy metals. They lifted the banner of our
country, the symbol of our faith, honor, legacy and freedom.
From Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao,
all as one, they raised their voices, their soul. The blue color on the flag
symbolizes peace and strength on how strong the Filipino people were and are.
The red symbolizes war, that in every battlefield, we are all ready to repeat
the history—to regain and fight for our victory. The 8 rays of the sun,
representing every province who joined the biggest fight. The war between us
and those immigrants who abused and fooled us. We were slaves in our own
country. We were powerless and above all, we didn’t have the guts to fight
them. We are all scared kitten afraid of those lions. Our country was filled
with moans and noises seeking for help and justice.
On the 12th of June 1898
at Kawit,Cavite, the souls of those who were killed, those who were alive. They
all witnessed our flag being lifted again. They were roaring with so much joy.
They waited for this. They prayed for this. This is the start of our own
freedom. The start of making the Philippines, the greatest country.
