The [Real] Government

The [Real] Government

“Boboto ka nang tama, hindi naman nila bibilangin ng tama. Wag na lang” Limang taon na akong botante, pero isang beses pa lang ako naka experience ng pagboto. Masaya. Parang pyesta, andaming tao, andaming tinda, andaming libre,libre pagkain, pamasahe, meryenda, pamaypay na may tatak, sumbero. Na may tatak. Bag. Damit. Pulseras. – na may tatak….

Why Negotiating With Terrorists Can Do More Harm Than Good

Why Negotiating With Terrorists Can Do More Harm Than Good

In the olden days, people were almost never safe. I remember writing in a previous article that during the times of Ancient Greece, people considered themselves safe when they weren’t in any immediate danger. In those days, barbarism was all too often a common occurrence (and probably one of the major causes of death) and…

Why Your Critics Can Sometimes Be Your Best Friend

Why Your Critics Can Sometimes Be Your Best Friend

They say that the truth hurts. Well, as a writer for more than a decade, I can attest to that. Yes, when people call you out on your mistakes, it can really wipe off that smile on your face. When people tell you about the moments you screwed up can really ruin your day. But then…

Why Simple Solutions Won’t Work In The Philippines

Why Simple Solutions Won’t Work In The Philippines

After a brief discussion with some of my friends, we considered the idea that what if we allowed common Filipino citizens to carry guns the same way that Americans do, the “right to bear arms”, so to speak. One commenter here on GRP even mentioned it, if I remember correctly. The discussion went around for a…

Misguided Ideas And Misunderstood Values

Misguided Ideas And Misunderstood Values

As of late, since the troubles down south seems to have taken a sudden spike recently because of a “misencounter” (if such a word even exists) between the PNP-SAF and the MILF, I have seen people clamoring for either peace or justice. There are those who insist that the only solution for the problem at…

Videogames And Children: A Bad Combination?

Posted on February 1, 2015 By Grimwald 10 Comments on Videogames And Children: A Bad Combination?
Videogames And Children: A Bad Combination?

With the inexorable advance of technology comes the inexorable advance to seek entertainment. When computers were first introduced to the public, they were still quite primitive and much of their performance could be easily compared to something just a little more advanced than your scientific calculator. Just a few years since their creation, the idea of…

Parenting, The Youth And Modern Living

Parenting, The Youth And Modern Living

For almost a year now, I have been an assistant for a guidance councilor. Mostly, I’m just a glorified stooge, I just help her in her office all the while listening to the children (and sometimes even parents) who are sent her way with their respective stories. Problems are a fact of life and no one person…

To All Muslims Who May Want To Read This

Okay, before we continue (if you even bother to read this at all), I’d like to make one thing clear: I do NOT hate you. I have nothing against you or your family. You have every right to live on this country as do I and my family. We are cousins after all, are we…
