[erased post] i could have just written a new post to apologize to art bell since you guys commented that the hate letter was a hoax...but instead i erased the whole thing and left a message to cynics re: my home (and the filipino male - wink wink)
to those who posted comments thanks so much! apparently i was the one ignorant. i told you i hardly read forwarded mails so i didn't know that this was such an old issue! I mean, who would even hate filipinos in the first place? we're just so darn hot! hahahaha!
[old post]BUT...i don't know who this man is and i'm sure there are others out there like him. So what am i going to do? hate him back? see now that's how wars start. Its like when Claire Danes said in Vogue magazine how much she hated shooting her then film in Manila where we are infested with cockroaches and all that. I despised her for that and her ignorance. note: she shot the movie in the slum areas. who wouldn't feel that way? well, like i said she is ignorant. too bad she couldn't have visited the nicer, more beautiful places here and her darn foot would be stuck in her mouth forever. last i heard they banned her from coming back here. her loss. so back to my original concern. I don't think hating this man or claire danes or whoever will solve their narrow minds and views. like i said, isn't it more their loss to not see the beauty in all things and people? i'd more hate to be like them, racist and blind that they will never see relevance and substance. they must lead such sad lives.
To put it in a different frame of mind...if i were them, i would never get to see the philippines. i would be stuck inside my home, not wanting to go out for fear of running into one of them filipinos or whatever minority group. so explain that to any one of the expats who come visiting here and can't seem to leave? because they love it. my filipino adoration surpasses all these insults that americans or other racist dodo heads hand out. They can singe themselves with how much i burn for this country. it's like when an ex-bf kept saying how bad and pathetic we are compared to the US etc. etc. well, you're comparing an eagle to a maya bird. but does that mean the maya bird ain't beautiful, useful and significant? i always wanted to say, that is how hitler thought. he would have killed all the maya birds and because he wanted only eagles to exist. But nature had other plans...now who's extinct? who do you think is stronger?
on a lighter note...[erased post] Filipino men rock! |
