Hello Filipino/Pilipino out there!

I've been wanting to post this thread - for a long long time - this is not just in answer/response to some threads I read before but in clamor to find if there is/are Filipino/Filipinos around, still and Proud to be One! I am proud to be and will always be.

I cried when I watch at youtube (I searched for it) the Ako Ay Pilipino of Kuh Ledesma. This song, I love/adored since I sung this in one of our school concerts I wish I could put the link, but I cannot because of Forum Rules ...

There's more to say but it's hard to pour it all here. Why there is always misunderstandings, why, there is always misconceptions, why there is always this jumping into conclusion ... when after all we are all Filipinos!
