"The most absolute right to believe.. is not so absolute at all!"
Why do they say that the absolute right was to believe?! is it because it only occurs within your inner self, making it privately yours and excluded from other persons judgments?! its privacy is concealed! yeah maybe that's why!
no matter how ridiculous, abstract, impossible and obscene your thoughts are, no one has the right to diverge from it,, only if you haven't voiced it out.. from here we can still say that truly,, the right to believe is absolute! but as you put it into action.. this is where your dilemma sets in..
often times people start to believe in things they encountered during their early childhood,, what they have grown to do, what has been first inculcated in their minds, and their own principles and judgments wth regards to instances serves as the foundation of their beliefs.. or apparently their beliefs itself..
and being unique beings of the creator, each of us he has entitled with diverse experiences making our beliefs as varied as we can ever imagine.
but why does this reality seemed so vague for all of us when it comes to imposing our opinions to persons who has their own beliefs?! we compel them to abide with our beliefs, by delicately or forcibly.
perhaps it is becuase some or most of us believe that what we believe in must be considered true and correct not considering how contradictory it is for some people. the problem in this scene is very basic yet irresponsibly disregarded always,, its just a matter of RESPECT!
We frequently hear people say that 'each of us is entitled to our own beliefs,' but why does people encounter a difficult time to let others exercise this?! Simple, for motives of personal gain!! we think that if some group of people deviate from the status quo the extent of power would be lessened since there already arose a group having distinct belief from the established and accepted belief of the many..
with this reality a lot people who oppose the common belief only obtain sour criticisms from the mainstream powerfuls in order for theie belief to be oppressed and for them to eventually join the group to which they preceedingly oppose.
i have just a word or two about this matter,having the title of being powerful can be equated to being extremely knowledgeable,, and a good basis of being knowledgeable is the ability of a person to undertsand and to adapt within circumstances opposing his customary belief with reverence and prudence.
A trip of smiles!
We had our planned exposure trip for our rizal Course, the call time was supposed to be 6:00 in the morning and I arrived at school at around 6:30 together with Madie and Dez. I have to admit it was my fault that's why we got there later than expected, cause i woke up a bit late and I moved slowly causeI woke up earlier than the usual.. and add to that, that it was really cold,, it seems like my bones are frozen from the inside making me move slowly.hehehe! alibis!:)
actually I was expecting that our late arrival would be no big deal cause for sure,, knowing my classmates most of us can be considered 'true filipinos' when it comes to beating call times. and true enough,, instead of the planned departure at 7:00 we got off ust at around 9:00 in the morning. can you believe it?!? we waited for roughly two hours.. God!!that moment was really boring! I wanted to get off the bus but I was held back by the thought that they might leave any time soon.. but again I was wrong!ugh!
so moving on from that issue of leaving school,, I was scared when we're at SLEX we saw a a vehicular accident. a jeepney was involved,, GOD i was stunned to see people stumbled on the road with blood rushing on their faces,, that was really unexpected and I think most of us felt a bit fearful that anytime there can occur an accident..
our first stop was in calamba, laguna. Rizal's home! i know ive already been there maybe for a couple of times,, i can't remember,, but the place was quite familiar so i roamed around without excitement. glancing at the furnitures makes me realize that Rizal really belonged at the elitist class during their era.
and upon seeing his room, clothes and stuffs made me think that he was less of a Filipino.. why?! let me recount to all you that i every picture of Rizal in his adult, you won't see him wearing our national clothing Barong. I think that proves he was less of a nationalist, and that he really wasn't that enlightened of he real situation of our country's ,masses during his time,, though he extended some aide to ordinary people while he was exiled in dapitan I doubt if all of the pople of them represent the real masses.
then we headed to Iglesia Watawat ng Lahi,there we were able to meet the Rizalists. we went to their assembly hall somewhat like a church and there someone had a speech regarding the aims, origin, beliefs and the practices of the 'organization.' at first I thought their belief was really weird,, imagine they believe that Rizal was the son of God! as I was listening to the speaker I was enlightened that maybe, they are seeing Rizal in a perspective not known to us which lead them to honor his works and beliefs..
there we are asked to interview some families regarding their view on pertinent issues regarding our country's economic and political dilemmas. I really enjoyed the somehow hiking towards the assembly hall.. cause it was so steep!eheheh!
then we went to Fort Santiago, ive been there for countless times,, and I can tell it has been changing making it appear to be more attractive and less historical. :( there goes the dungeons, the footsteps and of course lots of walls,,ahahaha! we had lots of pictures taken,, different poses, in different spots with different people.. I can say.. its the most enjoyable part of the trip.. the still images which would not only be instilled in paper but also in my mind and my memory.. aww..
lastly we arrived at the Beato Lights and Sounds Museum, we waited for quite a while at the receiving area of the museum cause I think we arrived there just after a showing time.. and so we had no choice but to wait for the next time.. and of course as expected! we had some shots taken..ahahah! I think each of us can be considered a cam whore.. and the funny part was that in every group pics one shouldn't be surprised when someone's face would only be a bit taken, for sure that one just rushed to be able to be included in the shot.hahahah!
the museum was really good.. the effects and the narration was clear.. I remember hearing someone say.. "Kaya bang ikwento dito ang buong history book? para wala na tayong history!" hahahaha! that was good joke!
then we headed home,,but instead of heading home.. I went to Sta. Lucia Mall at marikina with Dez and Madie.,,, I had no choice!ehehe they forced me!ahihihihi! just kidding!
I can't belive I went there just to eat at Jollibee.. which i kept complaining that their soup was not creamy, their sauce also wasn't creamy and there was no ice on my drink!argghh.. what type of service was that??! we should have eaten at Jolibee dapitan instead!ehehe!hi madie!:)
rating this day.. I was happy.. really i am.. :) someone made this day extra special.. thanks to you!:)
*tired yet happy mode*
