Pamumunong Bakal sa 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱: 𝟬𝟯𝗱𝟭𝗽𝘂𝟱_𝗿𝟯𝘅

By RAMON CHRISTIAN PLACIDO   ANG ISANG NAMUMUNO ay may responsibilidad sa kapakanan at pangangailangan ng kaniyang nasasakupan. Sa mabuting pamamahala, napapanatili ang kapayapaan ng kaniyang nasasakupan at nagkakaroon ito ng progresibong mamamayan. Pero may mga namumuno na nagtatago ng dumi upang mapanatili ang kaniyang kapangyarihan sa taong bayan. Matutunghayan ito…

Tawid Dagat

Hinayaan kong lamunin ng unang daluyong ng alon ang ibabang parte ng aking katawan. Ang buhangin na tumutusok sa aking mga talampakan ang nag-alis ng pamimitig sa aking mga binti. Isang mahabang hininga ang aking pinakawalan. Bumulabog sa aking malalim na gunam-gunam ang malalakas na putak ng mga tagak. Sa…

Sa Aking Himlayan

Mahal, nakakapagod. Sa muli, nadagdagan ang mga destinasyong hindi mahanap, mga daanang mahirap tahakin, at mga kostumer na inipin. Talagang nagbago na ang aking kahusayan sa trabaho magmula noong tayo’y magsama sa ilalim ng iisang bubong.  Sa bawat segundo ng aking pagmamaneho, isip ko’y okupado ng iyong mga babala tungkol…

Three Words

It can only take three words to change everything.  That was what I reminded myself as I walked out of the library, tightly clutching the books I had borrowed. With every step, I willed myself to ignore the thoughts in my head telling me to stop what I was intending…

Rock, Paper, Scissors, & You

Rock. Rough around the edges, Unyielding and brave. Stubborn and warm, Independent as the sun. Paper. Light, but not weightless, A mind of pure peculiarity. Neither blank nor dull, Always a page of mystery.  Scissors. We, a pair that severs all other cords. When fondled with flattery, You speak with…

Pangarap: Catalyst of Inspiration

By: FATIMA B. BADURIA   The path towards achieving one’s dream is seldom an independent venture as other peoples’ influences constantly leave impressions on the road being paved. Most of the time, this impact comes from their voices, which are powerful enough to reverberate in a person’s mind. Pangarap, a…

Bihag ng Ampilaw

Walang espasyo ang liwanag sa taimtim kong buhay na matagal nang pinalilibutan ng mga saradong bintana. Dilim at tahimik lang ang nais kong kasama, kaya’t matagal na akong lumalayo sa durungawan.  Labis na lamang ang pagtindi ng aking pag-iwas nang makarinig ng isang pagaw na boses galing sa kabila ng…
