Philippines, 113

Today I saw a flag unfurl amidst a backdrop of blue sky. Today’s no ordinary day for this piece of cloth to wave in the deep blue sky because today, all eyes gaze on it with a sense of euphoria and nationalistic pride. One hundred thirteen years ago, our forefathers saw the rise of three stars and a sun and today, I saw the same. It’s the 12th of June and it’s Philippine Independence Day.
