How come they Know this?


I was browsing in the net, looking for some info regarding the battle of Tsushima, as i venture thru the site, I found that the Philippines is included in this brief net-encyclopedia. anyway, what strike is this Official Motto that is featured just below the Philippine FLag:

National motto: Maka-Diyos, Maka-Tao, Makakalikasan at Makabansa (Filipino: “For Love of God, People, Nature and Country”)

Looking at it, guess our motto is not that original compare to the Land of the Free (USA)...but one thing is for sure, hardly anyone in the 85 million population of this country understand or even know that we have this kind of motto.

And none will be willing enough to follow it by every inch of it's true essence.

Maka-Diyos: Yes, we are dominantly catholics/ or should i say christians...but only in text. in reality... in a population of a million per Province, roughly 27% go to church or even care to pray every week. and hardly anyone here ever follow a simple rule of "love your god as you love your self, and love your brothers as you love god" thingy...why...cause its freaking obvious, everytime you walk in the streets, people are either thinking of how to out done others or how to get there first. (where ever in the name of hell is that place). Hell in my own company, is a small population of 200 employee.... only a handful actually go to church or even pray or try to communicate with the divine entity.

Now is it necessary to go to church just to pray...well not really...if your a freaking "born again"... but if your a cahtolic... for pete's sake...whats holding you to stop just 15 minutes to pray inside a chruch...the freaking city is teeming with churches. besides... in a ratio of 10 couple that have been married nowadays...only 3 couples would go back to pray in the church after they have been married. shees...other couples are even being wed with seeing a church...

can't blame them thou...its a fucking fortune just to get married....(rant rant rants)

Makatao: well i could say that at least some of us do help each other... but sometimes with string attach...i see people helping their neighboor when ever his house caught some fire...or someone died in their family...but my god, you can feel it afterwards that they will be asking you favors because you have an "Utang na loob" with them. Sick but true.

In a ratio of 30 men that will witness you being rob, victimize by a hit and run...or even murder... only 2 or 3 would actually assist you. And yeah, in a ratio of 20 people that will be able to pick your wallet... in case you drop it in the street, even if it contain all of your contact numbers and address. Only 2 people will return it to you completely.

You see lots and lots of Pinoy, walking down the street, inhaling that vile from those those white stick and exhale a more deadlier gas... yes, those pople that smoke on those street. a clear sign that we hardly give a damn about those other people that will inhale their poison as long as you enjoying killing yourself. ireally wish i could help them out by placing a 9mm lead in their cranium, in that way, they are not only helping the nature and other people, they are helping their selves by removing them to the risk of having lung cancers.

Makakalikasan : do i need to elaborate on this... darn it...look at our mountains, our street... damn it...look at Pasig river... is that a clear sign that we love nature...love destroying it...i guess.

Makabayan: Talk to at least 50 people...50 people, ask them if given a chance to be reborn, in what country would you like to live...or wish have been born... you will have a 98% response that they really hope they were born in a foreign land.

Sheesh, not even a mere 10% of nowadays generation is fucking aware of the Filipino old ways of life, and they don't care. If the country are to be conquered by a superpower, we wont be seeing another Bataan or another Pasong Tirad or Biak na bato, everybody would just raise their hands and say, "Ni Hao Ma"

Look on how we idolize the freaking Fag Four or rather sing the songs of artist like Josh Groban...well actually, i really cant blame them in regards with that... nowadays you will hear sick song like spahgetti pataas or bakit papa or that obsence rap "Sa silong ni Kaka"... really wish there are lot more of those song like Noypi by bamboo rather than otso-otso or pamela pamela shits... all crap, yet people buy it the way they will buy FPJ or Gloria...by the way...speaking of Makabayan... i read this article once more of my favorite columnist at Philippine Daily Inquirer- Mr.Conrado de Quiros titled "LOSERS"

in which he exclaim that a vote to a strong candidate is a vote against patriotism and a vote against the country.

I could not believe that we could even claim that we are any of those written in our National Motto, when we dont have any actual reference to prove that up to now... we are still Makatao/ Makadiyos/Makakalikasan at Makabayan...
