It’s Independence Day on Sunday, FNites, and there's no better time to list the things that make you proud to be Pinoy than this special occasion. It could be something you only see or experience in the Philippines, your favorite Pinoy food, or even Filipinos whose accomplishments are recognized worldwide! As TV host Bianca Gonzalez Tweeted earlier this month, the phrase "only in the Philippines" would make a great tagline for a Department of Tourism campaign. After all, we all love using it to express what we love about our heritage. She even shares some choice statements about Pinoy pride on her Twitter account, as quoted on her blog: “Where family and faith are the center of our lives, making us one of the most hospitable people in the world. :) #onlyinthePhilippines”
How about you, FNites? Do you feel your heart swell when you sing the National Anthem? Have you traveled all over the country and found yourself feeling grateful you live in a place with such inspiring natural wonders?
