I have been called a hypocrite lately, a scumbag who often speaks his opinions out in the open. But for me, it is something that I could say that is a part of me, that Im a very opinionated person, that whenever I have something to say, Ill say it right at this moment. But the downside of this bad habit is that, people hate/hates/hated me for doing that. Saying that who am I to blabber about things if I am not doing something to make a change, that Im just a stupid guy commenting on anything that I see in the internet. Well, the fact is, it hurts and that it bothers me whenever I feel the urge of giving my opinion on something, THOSE WORDS DONT GO AWAY, TRUST ME, THEY DONT. So here I am, blogging my way to redeem my self-esteem and stop me from degrading myself any further.
Well, enough with drama. Though, its somehow related to the question, If there is one thing you can give to the Philippines, what is that gift? This is #GLOBEProjectWonderful2014 blogger contest by the way, Im not after the iPad Air or the iPad 2 or any of the prizes in this contest, I would be a big hypocrite if Id be saying that I DONT want the luxury of getting these items from this blogger contest but, I do want to share my answer to their question. As what I shared earlier in the beginning of this post, most of us is restrained from expressing ourselves, in being who we want to be. That one thing that I could give the Philippines is the gift of the freedom of expression, a wall on a public area maybe. A wall where people could go and paint whatever it is they want to say to everyone wholl be seeing it. A freedom to paint whatever it is that they want to vent out, to speak, to shout out.
It may be too ambitious and dangerous, since people might go and start a revolution from this, but kidding aside, having a freedom wall wouldnt be that bad at all. Let every Filipino say what he/she wants to say, let them express themselves, let them grow, let them be advanced as much as they want to, let them enjoy being a Filipino till the last days of their lives, let the Philippines’ title as a ‘democratic’ country visible to everyone in it. We don’t need to put that much effort in providing such wall, a good enough reason to the government would suffice (I suppose). But hey, a guy can dream, right?
If by any chance you wish to answer the question, “If there is one thing you can give to the Philippines, what is that gift?” and just include #GLOBEProjectWonderful2014 anywhere in your blog post or comment below. For more information, click here.
