Unity in Diversity

It's holy week. And today is Black Saturday. I'm spending my Saturday here at home. I watched Hotel Rwanda. I was moved. It was very touching. And it made me realize that sometimes, these people you trust and look up to won't be there for you especially in very very bad times. In that movie, I was disgusted by the selfishness of the powerful West - the Americans, the French, the Europeans. There, I realized that these rich nations, some of them, don't care much about the rest of the world especially on some countries in Africa or Asia. Tsk... I am totally disheartened. I hope that today this kind of attitude will be eradicated. And these rich whites will realize that they have a responsibility to the world. With great power comes great responsibility. On the other hand, I am also happy that there are a few Americans, Europeans who have shown such tremendous generosity and love for the poor nations.

Let us not look into the color, the language, the race for us to reach out a hand. We are in one world. We are citizens of this world. We are brothers and sisters. :)

To the very few readers in my blog, if you want to make a difference in this world, if you want to help my country, the Philippines, I want you to try to look into this site http://www.gawadkalinga.org/. This organization has done so much to help my fellow brothers and sisters in the Philippines. This org has given hope and dignity to the Filipinos. Please share Gawad Kalinga to your friends.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart! :)
