"BANDILA NG PILIPINAS UNSTAINED" ( PHILIPPINE FLAG UNSTAINED)

             In the pages of Philippine history it is undeniable that our national flag  is always in the front of the scrutinizing public. Sometimes people tend to feel ackward and judgemental whenever people saw a particular flag; there are feelings of uneasiness, disappointments, pride, excitement etc.etc. There are feelings and thinking for a particular country or nation about our perception regarding the reputation of a certain country and our senses corroborates to remind us of our gathered information in a specific country. But actually in reality, the flag is a thing sacred, untouched and unstained whatever circumstances or  incident happened in any country. We cannot compare a national flag in a stagnant water that is gathering pollutants, and days passed by it becomes a breeding ground of a deadly mosquito so to speak.The flag is not like that.

            The Philippine flag is the carrier and symbol of our nation's struggle, pride and glory to achieved the continuous life of the filipino. Many years and government have passed, and its clear that there were administrations that cleaved to corruption,hypocrisy and deceit, but there were also a government of an honest to goodness administration and it goes along to what the flag is being symbolized. But whatever it is, the flag remains sacred and unstained. I remember a friend saying it is disappointing to see a Philippine flag because of the government's rampant corruption and lapses. "I looked up and i saw a dancing and waving flag in the flag pole.And it made me stare the beauty of it while its friend wind is hosting a tune and music. And it is  continuously wagging its entire form with dignity and pride." Suddenly it made me feel comfortable already realizing that the flag was unstained but sustained and it will remain and carry the nation's pride, glory and dream.

        We should learn to always distinguish and separate the government and a country's flag, that most of the time we perceived it the wrong way; that the people sometimes tend to have a feeling of disappointment and frustration whenever they saw a  country's flag specially a Philippine flag. This is unfair to what the flag is being taught. Bad or good governance the Philippine flag will soar as long as there are filipinos who believe in justice, liberty, equality and to add up truth and charity.

Long live Philippines, long live Philippine flag!!!!
