Pacquiao: A Showcase of Pinoys' Guts and Glory
by Dragon Lady
This happens to be my first ever (hopefully not the last!) post in our group blog. Sorry for intentionally choosing to be apolitical for the past months or so.... I didn't get so inspired to contribute in our blog and tried to ignore the fact that like the rest of you, I finished a college degree in Political Science after all.
Oh well. I believe that every single Filipino across the world is truly joyous and proud of our very own Manny Pacquiao's win against Erik Morales of Mexico yesterday, 22 January (Manila tme). It was truly a great fight that Pacman stood up for. Indeed, he proved to be The Destroyer after knocking down Morales on the tenth round.
What is so admirable about this man was his firm resolute that this boxing fight was not in honor of him nor his family; it is for our country and for the rest of the Filipino people.
Thank you, Manny, for standing brave and strong on behalf of all our fellow Pinoys. You are a great inspiration for us all amidst the alarming political crisis our nation is going through. I'd like to believe that your fight somehow brought unity, peace and joy in our beleaguered country and to the hearts and minds of our fellow countrymen.
Mabuhay ka, Manny Pacquiao!
Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!
Mabuhay ang sambayanang Pilipino!
