Photo By: Alexa Chloe B. Reyes A crowd gathers; farmers stand beside their carabao. There is anticipation, but also something quieter– devotion. On May 14 in Pulilan, Bulacan, carabaos approach San Isidro Labrador Parish Church one by one. Animals known for their strength in fields bend their front legs and lower themselves to the ground. Carabaos kneel. A moment that draws silence from the crowd– a stillness in a festival full of colors and movement. Cameras are showing, but

Sa pagdiriwang ng Carabao Festival sa Pulilan, aktibong nakibahagi si Owen Cortez, 14, street dancer ng Dampol 2nd B, sa parada nitong ika-14 ng Mayo upang ipakita ang talento, kultura, at debosyon sa simbahan kasama ang kanyang grupo. Aniya, “Sulit po ang pagod dahil naipakita namin ang galing ng aming bayan at mas lalo akong nagkaroon ng kumpiyansa sa pagsasayaw.”

Sa bawat paggising sa umaga, may matang nakatingala sa kisame, katawang pilit na bumabangon, at isipang tila nais nang sumuko. Ngunit sa kabila ng dilim na bumabalot sa isipan, may munting liwanag pa ring gustong panghawakan—ang pangarap. Sa bawat sulok ng bahay ay may mensaheng nais iparating sa ating buhay. Sa isang sulok, sumisimbolo ito sa takot na sumubok sa mga bagay na ating kinatatakutan. Sa ikalawang sulok naman ay ang panghuhusga sa sarili—mga tanong kung sapat ba a

Sa buong buhay ko, iisa lang ang tawag ko sa kanya: Nanay. Hindi ko siya tinawag na lola dahil, sa aking puso at isipan, siya ang nagpalaki, nag-aruga, at nagmahal sa akin nang buong-buo—parang tunay na ina. Mula pagkabata, ako na ang kasa-kasama ni Nanay sa lahat ng lakad niya. Siya ang bisig na naging aking tahanan tuwing ako ay nangangamba o natatakot. Lumipas ang panahon, at kasabay ng aking paglaki ay ang kaniyang pagtanda. Naalala ko noon, siya ang naghihintay sa akin s

Ang Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program, o mas kilala sa tawag na 4Ps, ay itinuturing na isa sa pinakamalawak at pinakamahalagang programa ng pamahalaan na tumutulong laban sa kahirapan sa bansa. Ito ay nagdulot ng ginhawa sa nakararami, subalit kasabay ng tagumpay ay may mga hamon na kailangang harapin upang maging ganap ang layunin nito. Ang pangunahing layunin ng 4Ps ay putulin ang namamana na siklo ng kahirapan. Sa pamamagitan ng pagbibigay ng tulong pinansyal, nasisigur

There was a point in my life when I realized I would rather place third than second. It sounds strange in a world that constantly teaches people to aim higher, work harder, and become the best. After all, second place is still an achievement. It is still close to success, close to recognition, close to the top. But maybe that is exactly why it hurts more. Because second place means you were almost enough. You were close enough to see the finish line, close enough to imagine y

Bumawi siya sa Game 5 sa kanilang home court, sa AT&T Center. 126-94, pabor sa Spurs ang series sa Western Conference Semi-finals, 3-2. ‎ ‎Sa unang kuwarter pa lang, grabeng paghahalimaw agad ang ginawa ni Victor.

Araw-araw, may mga guhit tayong hindi nakikita pero nararamdaman—mga salitang binibitawan na minsan, hindi na natin mababawi. Sa simpleng biro o komento, puwedeng may linya tayong natatapakan na hindi na muling bumabalik sa dati. Minsan, akala natin simpleng biro lang ang mga salitang binibitawan. “Tumaba ka yata,” “Ang hina mo naman,” o kaya’y “Hindi bagay sa’yo ’yan.” Para sa nagsabi, maaaring mabilis itong makalimutan, pero para sa nakarinig, puwedeng manatili iyon sa isip
