THE BEAUTY AND GRACE OF PHILIPPINE FOLK DANCE


FOLK DANCE IS A FORM OF DANCE DEVELOPED BY A GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT REFLECTS CERTAIN CULTURE, TRADITION AND BELIEFS.


FOLK DANCE IS A GREAT EXERCISE FOR PEOPLE OF ALL AGES. IT IS EASY TO LEARN BUT ITS STYLE AND ELEGANCE WILL NEVER FADE AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBER EVEN BY NEW GENERATION.




WE CONSIDERS FOLK DANCE AS A UNIQUE HERITAGE OF OUR PEOPLE. IT IS EMBEDDED IN OUR CULTURE AND PRACTICE BY OUR PEOPLE EVERY TIME WE HAVE SPECIAL OCCASIONS REMINDING US HOW RICH WE ARE IN TERMS OF OUR CULTURAL HERITAGE.



WE SALUTE THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, THE CITY DIVISION SCHOOLS OF QUEZON CITY, THE DIFFERENT PRIVATE SCHOOLS, THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNIT OF QUEZON CITY, THE SANGUNIANG KABATAAN OF QUEZON CITY LED BY SK FEDERATION PRESIDENT/ COUNCILOR DE GUZMAN FOR TAKING PART, ORGANIZING AND HOSTING THIS KIND OF ACTIVITIES.

WE, FILIPINOS ARE VERY UNIQUE PEOPLE AND ONE OF A KIND. SOMEONE SAID, "THE PHILIPPINES BECOME THE WEST -TEMPERED EAST". 


WHETHER THE DANCE IS CHA-CHA, BALLROOM, BALLET OR FOLK, WE FILIPINOS CAN DANCE TO THE BEAT.


LOOK AT THE POISE OF THESE DANCERS ! WOW! FANTASTIC!!!



IN THIS KIND OF FOLK DANCE, REFLECTS THE  DUEL OF TWO GREAT WARRIORS WHO FIGHT IT OUT TO THE END WHERE VICTOR'S ACCLAIMED HIS GREATEST PRICE THE WOMAN HE ADMIRED MOST.

STATUE OF DIVINE MERCY

THIS GIGANTIC STATUE OF THE DIVINE MERCY MEASURED 50 FEET HIGH PERHAPS THE MOST REMARKABLE MONUMENT IN MINDANAO. IT IS SITUATED IN EL SALVADOR CITY,  AND IT WAS NAMED AFTER THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD, JESUS CHRIST. THE STAIRWAY IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THAT OF MRT. THOSE WHO HAVE HEALTH CONDITION ARE ADVISED TO STAY ON THE GROUND. TOURISTS AND OTHER VISITORS ARE ADVISED TO OBSERVED PROPER DECORUM SINCE THE ENTIRE PLACE IS SACRED. THOUGH I AM A REFORMED CATHOLIC, VISITING THE PLACE IS A RARE EXPERIENCE  AND I WAS AMAZED TO SEE HOW PEOPLE STRIVE TO CREATE ENORMOUS STATUE LIKE THIS. PILGRIMS FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF ARCHIPELAGO FLOCKED TOGETHER TO SEE THIS WONDERFUL PLACE.  I AM A STRONG BELIEVER THAT PEOPLE'S FAITH CREATED THIS PLACE. THEIR FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST WORKS WONDER FOR THEM RECEIVING POSITIVE ANSWERS TO WHAT THEY WISH FOR.

SAVE YOUR SPEECHES FOR THE BEST

THE POLITICAL ARENA IS VERY COLORFUL. WHETHER YOU ARE PARTY MATES OR YOU BELONG TO THE OPPOSING PARTIES, AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU WILL DO YOUR BEST TO OUT-DO AND OUT-WIT ONE ANOTHER FOR ONLY ONE REASON, TO ENSURE VICTORY AND REMAIN ON TOP. LOOK AT THEIR SLOGANS OR WHAT THEY ARE CLAIMING DURING POLITICAL RALLIES AND CAUCUSES. SOME CLAIM THAT THEIR ONLY VICE IS SERVICE (ANG TANGING BISYO NILA AY SERBISYO). SOME SAYS, "BAYAN ANG NO.1, KAMPEON NG PALUPA, TAGAPAGTANGGOL NG KABABAIHAN, KAMPEON NG EDUKASYON, GUSTO KO HAPPY KA, TAPANG AT MALASAKIT, LAYLAYAN NG LIPUNAN, ITULOY ANG DAANG MATUWID AND A LOT MORE. THEIR SPEECHES ARE WELL ORGANIZED AND CRAFTED. THEY WERE EVEN SUPERB IN THE DELIVERY OF THEIR MASTER PIECE. TO BE HONEST AND FAIR, THERE ARE CERTAIN TRUTH TO WHAT THEY ARE SAYING AND CLAIMING BUT MOST OF IT LACED WITH FLOWERY AND SOMETIMES EVEN POISONOUS. SELLING YOURSELF TO THE PEOPLE IS NOT AN EASY JOB. THE PEOPLE WILL KNOW HOW SINCERE YOU ARE AS PUBLIC SE...

Urban Reforestation

FOR QUIET SOMETIME, THE WANDERING BLOGGER SEEMS INACTIVE IN WRITING FOR ONE REASON, NOT BECAUSE HE RUNS OUT OF IDEAS BUT MAINLY BECAUSE OF THIS STRANGE FEELING THAT I DO NOT WANT TO WRITE AT ALL.  I NEED TO MOTIVATE MYSELF TO FIGHT THIS STRANGE FEELING WITHIN ME AND CONVINCE MYSELF THAT I NEED TO WRITE AGAIN. I BELIEVE MY READERS ARE VERY EAGER ANTICIPATING MY NEXT ARTICLE.. CLIMATE CHANGE IS A BY-WORD NOW AND ECO-WARRIORS WAS BORN TO RESTORE THE FAST DETERIORATING PLANET EARTH. DURING MY CHILDHOOD, MY FATHER AND I AS WELL AS THE OTHER SIBLINGS ARE ARMED WITH BOLOS CUTTING SMALL TREES, CLEARING THE WEEDS AND LATER ON BURNED THE SITE IN PREPARATION FOR PLANTING SEASON WERE CROPS LIKE PALAY AND CORN WERE PLANTED. THIS SYSTEM IS CALLED THE "KAINGIN SYSTEM" AND WERE CALLED  THE "KAINGENEROS".  WE WERE NEVER INFORMED DURING THAT TIME THIS SYSTEM OR PRACTICE IS ILLEGAL AND HARMFUL TO ECOLOGICAL BALANCE. NOT ONLY DESTROYING THE NATURAL HABITAT OF SMALL AN...
