I'd like to thank Otep for featuring the book in his blog. I am linking his wordpress blog so you can take a look at it too (I also listed his blog on my blogroll). Apparently, Otep was able to track me via Friendster (FS).
This is why I couldn't leave FS. Although I personally do not know majority in my friendslist anymore, I had to admit FS is still the more popular social networking site among Filipinos.
Going back to Otep's blog, its title (or should I say subtitle?) "Libre Lang Mangarap" is quite fitting for most readers of this blog who comprise mostly of OFWs and Pinoy abroad (apart from my family and friends in the Philippines, of course).
The assumption is we all bear the heartaches of being away from the country to pursue our dreams. And since it is free, why not keep dreaming, right? There is nothing wrong in dreaming. In fact, I always tell Filipinos here in the Middle East, and to friends in other countries to dream... and dream big!
I guess the difference lies in how we treat these dreams. Let me ask you a question: As you wake up in the morning, do you look at the clock, go back to sleep and keep dreaming? Or do you get up immediately, and chase those dreams?
In my case, I'd like to wake up with my morning coffee (not necessarily Arabo), attend to my morning routine, and walk and greet people with that burst of sunshine. But then, that's just me.
But, how about you?
P.S.
You can now follow me at Facebook and Twitter.
