My Love for the Philippines

Levin Salonga of Milwaukee, WI sent this to us to show his love for the Philippines. He said his heart will always be filled with love for his country even if he’s in States most of his life.
This is not unusual scenario for most of the Filipinos living in abroad. I remember a Filipino song with a lyrics “San ka man mapunta..babalik ka rin..babalik ka rin.” That’s exactly the point! Wherever you are in the globe, your heart will still find its one true home.

Carabao or “Asian Water Buffalo” is the National Animal of the Philippines. They are known for their invaluable contributions especially in rice fields. They have so much strength that’s why they are extensively used in farms, rice fields and forest.
Like carabao, Filipinos are hardworking and capable of doing anything, anywhere in the world.
This one is from Chris of Germany. It is composed of the word “Philippines”, carabao and the 3 stars and a sun in the middle.

Each color of the Philippine flag have meaning. Blue stands for unity and the noble desires of Filipinos. Red symbolizes the eagerness of Filipinos to shed blood in defense of their country. White stands for purity. The 3 stars in triangle formation represents the three divisions of the country..Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. While the sun with eight rays represents the eight provinces the revolted for independence.
This tattoo is from Richard of Sacramento.

Take a look on how the Philippine Sun was spruced up by Emerald Tattoo (the shop who made this tattoo). The tattoo was obviously designed with Philippine Islands and Philippine Sun. To spice things up, the artist of this tattoo put a little twist on the Philippine Sun and surprisingly the Philippine Stars are not included.
The bearer of this tattoo is Rick Reddaway from Jackson.
