Happy 4th of July!
Posted by: meikah | 4 July 2008 | 2:36 am
The Fourth of July is one of the biggest and most meaningful celebrations in the U.S.
Here in the Philippines, this used to be a red-letter day, too, until President Diosdado Macapagal moved the Independence Day celebration to June 12 in the name of nationalism.
Still July 4th remains to be a Fil-American Friendship Day, which celebrates the start of a good friendship between the two countries.
In the spirit of friendship then, let me share some quality-4th-of-July links:

SixSig Celebrates Independence Day!
Posted by: meikah | 12 June 2008 | 2:53 am
Today is Independence Day in the Philippines!
I cannot allow this day to end without greeting my fellow Filipinos Happy Freedom Day!
Freedom, like love, is the most abused and confused word in the dictionary. Many people confuse freedom as being free to do what they and want when they want.
It may sound like a cliche, but with freedom comes great responsibility. For every action and decision and even aspiration you make, there are consequences that you have to deal with. Noone exists in a vacuum. Each one is affected and influenced by the other.
With freedom comes great sacrifice. You cannot possibly allow something to happen if the greater majority would suffer from it in the end.
With freedom comes selflessness. You put the welfare of others before your own. You cannot espouse freedom yet coerce others to follow your twisted plans.
With freedom comes great joy. When you’re conscience is clean, you can sleep well at night and be joyful the next day.
With freedom comes great love. Because you can love, you are overflowing with care and sympathy for your fellowmen.
With freedom comes great service. You come not to be served but to serve. Service to humanity is the best work of life.
