The Dying Filipino Society

In a complex society, two things are prominent, “deviousness” and “unutterable greed”. Seeking for just and equal rule of law is far from reality as you have to face chaos and destruction in the process. We must frankly face and accept the fact that there are some with inadequate conception of power and there are those who become prey and human sacrifice. People are enslaved to a world of never-ending greed, temptation and scheme. Thus the continuing decline and death of the society is not far. Our country is like a ship slowly sinking in the dark waters. What was once rich and prosperous, is now a country plagued with poverty, violence, immorality, corruption and injustice.


With democracy we all have the government we choose and deserve.  A government ruled by the people with the sole purpose of helping and serving its citizens, building a nation that would cater to its needs. During the primeval times when simplicity and contentment is supreme, when everything else is free from selfish manifestations, when there is still self-sufficiency and freedom Filipinos have lived without any dependency or influence from the government. They live in the abundance of natural resources. They cultivate their own land. There are no constitutional laws to abide because the people treat each other with respect. But with the incessant greediness of some people, who use and abuse the weakness of their countrymen brought us and the country’s posterities into turmoil.  It is just so sad that a country like ours with its natural wealth and intellectual populace is classified as a third world country.


It is never too late to act.  Any of our actions has an impact on others. Filipinos must unite and work on a common goal to bring back our country’s dignity. The people must free itself from the influence of the government. The government has to be stopped from making selfish decisions and should start to care for its people and the country’s welfare. The Filipino people are strong and wise. The choices we make today can change not only our lives but the Philippines’ future generation.  Poverty, violence, immorality, corruption and injustice are all preventable. But it will continue if we do not do something about it. We also have our own responsibilities in making a long-term change possible and NOW is the time.
