Kawawang GenZ ng Pilipinas:
College pandemic, can't buy land, 2022 election trauma, boomer parents na UniTeam, tas walang Leni sa 2028, villain sa workplace kasi hindi niro-romanticize ang OTs, bilis mang-cut off, may educational crisis dahil sa AI, nare-redtag sa mga rally. 💀
i wish we talked more about the particular loneliness of claire and fleabag. about how you can be someone’s sister, know their entire history, recognise their wounds, and still have absolutely no idea how to reach them. how love can exist so profoundly between two people and still struggle to find a language.
late night thoughts:
ang hirap pala kapag wala kang concrete na plano or pangarap sa buhay. nung nagstart ako magwork, wala akong specific na plano. nagtrabaho lang ako. kahit nung nagcollege ako, ang naging goal ko lang is makapagtapos.
kaya nung nagwork ako, work lang ako nang work pero di ko alam kung may direction ba ko na gustong puntahan or marating. kung may goal ba ko. enough na ba ung goal ko noon na gusto ko mapromote? narealize ko na wala pala akong long term goals. wala akong specific na gustong ma-achieve sa buhay. i was just... surviving ganon.
i wasn't taught to have one. dinidiktahan lang ako ng mga dapat kong gawin. kaya i never knew what i wanted for myself. kaya nung dumating ako sa point ng buhay ko na nawalan akong work, nag-aalaga ako ng grandparents, nasa bahay lang, sobra kong na-lost. hindi ko alam anong gusto ko. hindi ko alam ano nang next sa buhay ko. hindi ko alam gagawin ko. kasi i never had a goal in life to begin with.
sabi nga nila, "begin with an end in mind" eh hindi ko nga alam ano ung gusto kong end. so pano? hahaha. kaya medyo late ko na narealize na, dapat pala may specific tayong goals sa buhay. para may direction, para magkaron din ng starting point. late is better than never naman siguro noh?
for anyone who isn't aware yet, trump is visiting the philippines on november 16 for the possible signing of the pax silica agreement. the communities severely affected by this are continuously showing resistance, as this will only do more harm than good for us filipinos and our homeland.
stay informed and use your voice. research and take a stand.
LUPA SA MAGSASAKA, HINDI SA PAX SILICA ‼️‼️‼️
