Inspiring Young Pinoys as Modern-Day Heroes
Posted by mhel in famous people, the Filipina on January 27th, 2012
Let’s take some moment away from the tumult of the impeachment trial and other political debacles in our country. It’s time for a breather and some good news.
The famous line of our national hero Dr. Jose P. Rizal “ang kabataaan ang pag-asa ng bayan” (the youth is the hope of the nation) is still not lost to this day. Many Filipino youth from all over the country exemplify exemplary behavior and accomplishments. These young Pinoys serve as inspiration and model for their fellow youth. It’s just fitting that they are recognized and honored to inspire more youth in following their footsteps.
Two of these commendable youth are environmentalist Anna Oposa and online activist Jay Jaboneta who were recently chosen awardees for 2012 “Young Global Shapers” of the World Economic Forum (WEF). These two were also among Yahoo! Philippines “Pitong Pinoy Awardees” last year. Anna and Jay would join other 68 young women from other countries in helping set the agenda of the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting to be held in Switzersland where they would be able to speak to world leaders for their advocacies.

A Christmas Prayer and Greeting
We celebrated yesterday the most important event for Christians — Christmas. The difference though lies on our way of celebrating Christmas and valuing its importance. Hopefully, our merry-making activities included prayers and well-wishes as more than gifts, food, parties, and games, Christmas is about reflection, sharing, loving and praying.
To everyone who frequent this blog, who read it from time to time, to those who love me, care for me, and became part of my life, one way or another, here goes my Christmas prayer for all of you:
“God, as I thank you for the gift of life, I also thank you for the wonderful people I have met along my journey. Some of them inspired me, stretched me, challenged me, encouraged me, loved me, but all of them helped me realized how meaningful and beautiful my life is.
Please bless them with love, good health, success, peace and happiness… As I celebrate your son’s birthday, Lord Jesus, our dear teacher, I profess my love for these people as loving you means loving all you’ve created as well. Merry Christmas to You, to Papa Jesus, and to everyone!”
ShareWays to Help Typhoon Sendong Victims of CDO and Iligan
We all wanted to help our fellowmen from Cagayan de Oro and Iligan City whose families, loved ones and themselves, were victimized by typhoon Sendong (with international name “Washi”). We all saw the photos and videos on television and internet — hundreds of dead bodies (many still unidentified); injured children and elderly; washed out houses and properties; grieving relatives of missing persons and other equally depressing images of tragedy and disaster.
We wanted to help but do not have the money. Luckily, there are ways. Groups, non-governmental and private organizations, are mobilizing their resources to help the victims of Sendong and they are waiting for your donation to add on to theirs.
Going Green for Christmas
More and more people are becoming environmentally conscious these days. As the reality and effects of global warming are felt all over the world, people have no choice but to actually give some thoughts about the degradation of the natural environment. Maybe a little late for showing concern about mother earth but no one’s giving up. Read the rest of this entry »

ShareChristmas Shopping and the Grand Wish
Indeed, malls and bazaars are places are now crowded with frantic and excited shopper trying to complete their Christmas shopping. Why not, it’s just nine (9) days to go before the most awaited day for Filipinos.
I’m one of the stressed shoppers hoping to grab the best bargains and last minute deals for those who are in my Christmas list. I am particularly adamant about the gifts for my godchildren which I have not completed yet. For this reason, I tried going to the mall last night after my work and after my class to shop some gifts for my godsons and goddaughters. As expected, people are everywhere but unlike during regular days, they mill around in anxious and hasty fashion. Read the rest of this entry »
