QUICK THOUGHT 1: DARK SKIN

I remembered that during the national election, some of the Filipinos are bullying Nancy Binay because they believe that she is not capable and qualified to be a senator. But the sad thing was they are making fun of her dark skin color: A darn color which we Filipino naturally have. It is like mocking her with one thing that we all have, and eventually like mocking ourselves and our natural complexion. I also dont like her to be a senator but lets not be too superficial. Do we really hate bullying? or we only hate to be bullied but we love bullying other people? Most of us have dark skin and that is something we should be proud of because other nationalities are willing to expose themselves to the high heat of the sun and risk to get cancer just to achieve our tan color. Did you notice that after we stop sending fair complexioned condidates for international beauty pageants and start sending and believing to the morena filipina beauty, we start also bagging titles and awards? It is just saddening that we Filipinos are still very superficial. We love looking for other people's mistakes and imperfection but we never try to fix or accept ours.
