Resilience grounded on faith — very Filipino

-

 

   Filipinos are by nature inherently strong     and very determined to overcome whatever calamity comes our way. We will overcome all tragedies and with our faith in God they know we will survive. Yes! The Filipino resilience could not be easily matched. We are a race that can smile amidst a  chaotic  surrounding. We can easily rise from all the depression and will quickly start to live our lives again.

  


     This Covid-19 pandemic that we are experiencing right now brought our country, not  only our country but the whole world into agony. We are facing challenges everyday, fear envelops us because we don't know where the opponent is, the virus is not visible. We felt afraid because we don't know if we are still alive on the next day.
     It has almost 7 months since the  government implemented the Enhance Community Quarantine. They implemented it to reduce or stop the spread of the virus, but as the months passed by, the cases in our country are increasing.

     Due to the ECQ, many Filipinos lost their jobs and this caused them into a great suffering. Also, due to unemployment, many Filipinos  have nothing to eat so they just rely on what the government will provide.



   We, Filipinos suffered so much because of a lot  challenges in our country.  But despite all this, we remained strong and never gave up. However, I believe that every Filipino will overcome all the challenges as long as we are helping one another and we are fighting together as a nation. Just stand firm and have a strong faith in God.

    Hello Aiza! I like how you reiterated of what is happening in our country. I hope we won’t romaticize resiliency over and over again rather we should hold accountability to the government’s negligence to perform their duties properly. Stay safe and God Bless!

It is now the final Quarter. Overall, this school year has been a fantastic learning experience. In our ICT class, I learned a lot throughout the school year. This quarter, we familiarized ourselves with the fundamental ideas of Microsoft FrontPage, such as the many parts of it and the significance of MS FrontPage. We do, however, continue to write and publish  blogs and make comments on them. Challenges and setbacks are a vital part of learning, therefore I had some difficulties in ICT this quarter, but I remained calm and determined to conquer them. As we approach the end of the school year in our ICT class, I am grateful and thankful to our Almighty God for allowing me to complete the last quarter of this school year despite the Covid-19 pandemic. All I have to do now is put those lessons into practice in my daily life since I know that  they are important and will always be relevant in my life as a student-person.

Fifteen years ago, a noble idea developed in the minds of a group of civic spirited Ilocanos who wanted to promote cultural awareness and preserve the rich historical and cultural heritage of Ilocos Norte. They wanted to rekindle in the youth and future generations the pride of their heritage. The magnificent idea developed and is now a living reality, KANNAWIDAN, the Iloko Foundation of Arts and Culture. Ilocos Sur has a rich heritage and unique culture that are to be preserved for the next generations because it is observed that many of these traditions, songs, dances and other Ilocano culture are not familiar to the younger generations already. Instead,children of today are paying more attention to the modern and novelty dances they seen on the television than the traditional ones. There is also a need to evaluate the different products of the different municipalities and the agricultural products and livestock of the farmers and fisher folks. Because of this, the ...
