Lights from the dark

The world was once a dark place. Nations against nations, humanity struggled to be at the top of the world. But on that fateful day, a flood of good change passed the lives of every Filipino and left a scar to each generations.

On the day of June 12, Every year we rejoice for we know that it was that day wherein we are free from the chains of the unmerciful. And up to this day, it was never forgotten. As if it was planted to every Filipino's hearts. Battles that have been fought for the dreams of the citizens, and a war that begun has come to an end. A shed of sweat and blood in our soil that reminds us of what we are today. That reminds us of what we stood and fought against. An cataclysm that we overcame as one. And a battle that we will forever cherish, a sacrifice that left a scar on everyone's heart.

We ourselves can never witness the happenings of the past. We can never feel the strike of blades and shots of bullets through our own thick skin. But we know that we are here because of the sacrifices of the what we call "heroes". For that we should acknowledge the sacrifices and make it worth it. We should never be ashamed of the dream we once stood up for.
