Its a holiday in the Philippines. It is EDSA's 22nd year. For those people who doesnt know EDSA, In the Philippines, when one mentions EDSA, it's not just the longest street, yes, it is a street (Epifanio delos Santos Ave.) but a symbol of democracy. How our fathers, uncles, aunts fought for freedom from a dictator that was Marcos.
I was so young during the 1st EDSA revolution. I was just about 5 years old then. (do your math how old i am!) 2nd EDSA or peaceful overthrowing of government was in 2001? or 2002. I forgot! haha. I was in college. I wasn't allowed to join. Papa didn't want me in the streets, so was the ex boyfriend.
Honestly, what did we really get out of it? Democracy? And then what? After so many years of enjoying the supposed democracy people get tired of it. Or people get tired of the leaders then we call another "EDSA". I am sad that this happened and happening again to the country. Call me apathetic now but, I tell you, until we all sit down and think about what we want, it will just be another rally after rally.
Now, am waiting for ABS-CBN's telecast of the OSCAR's.
. Especially when spoken by a lips of a less than 6 month old baby.
