Glimmers of Hope

In Tagum City's southern side, along its dynamic coast, rural life breaths at its finest. Despite the city's meteoric rise as a bustling urban hub, Tagum City has maintained the vibrancy of its rural feel. One needs not to go far to see this. You'll see it in the eyes of its children.

On Tuesday, I had the rare privilege in visiting Barangay Liboganan, a rural village that faces the mighty Davao Gulf. Seeing its children in their barangay school warmed my heart as it reminded me of the simple life they are living. Through their eyes, one can see the innocence and joy that only a child can bear. That Tuesday was so special to them, at least that's what my sense told me.
