Take A Look at Yourself and Make A Change

   

      Gigantic buildings made of glass. Extravagant cars filling up the road. Baroquely made houses built in cities. Skyscrapers embracing the deep sky. Happy-go-lucky people wandering through the streets. Oh, didn't the world just change too fast? The world is now invaded with technologies thus, making life much easier and faster. But what is the use of these extravagance, profusion, innovation, progression if we don't have a decent place to put these on?

     Open your eyes into reality. The clear blue sea turned out gray. The verdant trees on mountains and hills became bald. Corals and other marine creatures are devastated. Some kind of animals were put to extinction. Fresh air from trees was changed to polluted air from factories and jeepneys. Kaingin, mining, illegal fishing became hobbies of most people. These foolish acts of people, can you really still bear?

     It is never wrong to aim for progress or much like betterment or our economy. It is not bad to dream for advancement. There is nothing wrong in achieving modernization. Of course, who doesn't want change? Especially if its a change for the better. Only ridiculous people will object. But we must held liable and accountable for the destruction it might take, for the unsatisfactory outcome it might end. We must not forget the responsibility we embraced.

     Let us put an end to these causes. We must not wait until it gets worse. All the world needs is a little care and a little act of kindness. It needs hands which will work and heal the world. Change starts within oneself. If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change.

My MotHEROINE

       

         Hero. Just a four-letter word but rich in meaning. I don't say that the way how you describe it is unacceptable but I'm gonna say what a hero for me is. A hero is someone who is willing to break all the theories in life just to prove himself/herself worthy of being called a hero.

        When someone does something unforgettable to us, we may consider him/her as the hero of our lives. My mother is worthy of being called a heroine. She has been through many trials, fell through her knees, cried thousand tears but she never uttered the word 'give up'. No matter how much she's hurt, how much her heart breaks, she always have the courage to pursue and fight. She's never afraid of shedding tears because she knows that every tear that falls in her eyes is a sign of a brave soul and strength. She'' be stronger than what she's been before. Her smile is but as sweet as honey and as lovely as a rose. Her smile is a medicine which heals any kind of sickness you may feel.
 
        I owe my life to my parents for without them, I wouldn't exist. My mother has carried my is her womb for nine months and raised me as her daughter for 16 years. She has been a light of the family and stood also as the role of a father at the same time since my father worked away from from. She has supported me to every step I take towards a brighter future. She never failed to give support to every decision I make.
   
        I couldn't imagine how my life is without her. It's like a flower never been watered, withered and slowly dying. Until there comes a point in life, when that dead flower becomes useless and devoid of meaning.
