, a cousin. The people here welcome me, not as a visitor, but as a native. And no matter how long I’ve been gone, or from where I’ve come, my seat is saved.
As a child, I was so proud of my family and my culture. Many people I had met hadn’t even heard of the Philippines. But that just made it even more precious., I thought, had access to our beautiful country. Only we knew this feeling. And I found myself constantly speaking these words: “You don’t know about the Philippines? Let me tell you all about it. Let me tell you about my family.”
FILIPINO CHRISTMAS. The young ones in line for ‘pagmamano’ and to get ‘aginaldo.’ Photo from Eric Santos “No, I’ve never been to the Philippines…. I don’t really know my extended family. Haha, too many cousins, you know what I mean? But yes, #filipinopride. Don’t you love pancit?” So let me share my secret. Before our culture continues to get lost. Before we miss out on the current boom of Asian culture in the US. I will try my best, on behalf of my family and my limited experiences, to tell you all what being Filipino means to me.
Filipinos are obsessed with everything romantic, and we feel our music, we don’t just listen. Filipinos can sing so sweetly, and many have this natural ability to dance. The way I see it, Filipinos are the culmination of every outward enjoyment of life.
