"SUPORT your country's tradition, BUILD a better nation and ENCOURAGE everyone inorder to achieve progression"
Hey Yow Steemians!
A pleasant day for each of us, it's such a big delectation to be here again. I just want to encourage my co-Filipino citizen to lean there hands in bringing back the tradition built by our greatest ancestors. I've been wondering why did those traditions where becoming obsolete already in this modern situation. Is it because of lack in heartening oneself of devoting Filipino tradition, or is it because of ignoring the beliefs and replacing it with modern civilization?
We are so fool of having these bilge reasons. We must not act like this, how can we sustain the progress of our nation if we don't even know how to value our own worth. Be an optimistic one and support what's ours without any sarcastic reasons. I am writing this article just because I want to maintain our tradition I want to awaken the beliefs that we were influenced past ago. The end is not yet to come, there's always time for everything.
What are those traditions?
Reminiscing the traditions we have forgotten is such a big slap in our face. Below are some traditions which are becoming to be obsolete:
- PAGMAMANO
--> an act of bowing elder ones or let me say respecting older person in the means of putting the hand of the person in a child's forehead.

Those are some sort of Filipino traditions which were likely forgotten. We must do some actions inorder to have it alive again. May this blog reminds every Filipino how glorious they we wasted. I'm not blaming everyone but rather I'm encouraging all of ourselves. May we learn from our mistakes and behold for our nation. Mabuhay Philippines! Proud Filipino!!
