Value of Freedom

 


   The Independence Day Philippines is commemorated every June 12. After hundreds of years under the Spanish rule, Emilio Aguinaldo has waved the Philippine flag for the very first time and declared independence in Kawit, Cavite.

   Independence Day Philippines is one of the most important events celebrated in the country because after more than 300 years of being under the Spanish rule, the Pearl of the Orient Seas has been freed.

   Celebrating a happy independence day every June 12 in the Philippines is important to the Filipino people because this is the time where the country has gained independence from the hundreds of years of colonialism.

All we can do is prepare for it because nowadays the catastrophes are not expected by anyone. But we have to accept that this is already part of our lives and the only thing that can be done is to be prepare at all times.    Many have lost their lives, lost their loved ones, and property was damaged due to typhoon ondoy that hit the Philippines in September 2009 and followed by typhoon Yolanda in Leyte. There was also an earthquake in bohol and it will be remembered that there were wars in Zamboanga that even the inoccents were affected as well as the eruption of the Taal volcano and the pandemic that is taking place today. There are really a lot of things we don't expect like the ones mentio...
