You know, I think one of the things that holds us back is this dwelling on being colonial subject and being a “conquered people”. Why not celebrate the fact that despite the fact the Spanish and Americans came and conquered, we were able to take elements of those cultures and make them their own? Why not celebrate the fact that had the Doctrina NOT been printed in baybayin, that evidence of the Tagalog and Ilocano styles would have been LOST. The Spaniards could have easily “hidden” the fact that our people had a writing system before the Latin alphabet became widespread, and we’d have only known about it once it was discovered that the Tagbanwa, and Mangyan had their own systems.

Let’s face it we wouldn’t be who we are today if we had not been conquered. All of the elements of Filipino culture we like ARE from being a conquered people. We should celebrate our diversity no mater how negative parts of our past are. Where we’ve been decides who we are, we can’t divorce ourselves from it, and regretting our past only holds us back.
