KAYA MONG MAGING DAKILA

March 5, 2008

It’s been quite a while since I have not posted a blog. I was, however, touched by my friend’s message in her blog of a song by Noel Cabangon in You Tube, which is relevant to our present situation as a people and a country. Kaya Mong Maging Dakila by Noel Cabangon and the 46 Pilipino Artist who performed with him deserves to be heard, watched by all of us in the hope that the lyrics of the song  be  internalized by every PILIPINO, especially our leaders of today:

    thank you for appreciating this song. the song is meant to inspire our people to be dakila in their own ways.

    The idea of heroism sounds a little daft in a culture of game shows and celebrity video-phone scandals. Irony has become such an accidental virtue that it has swung back to hit us in the head. Calling someone a “hero” is to invite sarcasm and self-righteousness. So here we are now, living in a time tragically bereft of them.

    Heroes are products of circumstance. There are those who have become so through sheer will, but there are people who become heroes after being pushed to a dead end.

    A wise man once said our past shapes our response to the present. This nation was formed on the sacrifices made by martyrs both immortalized and anonymous. A country need not be a colony of a foreign power— it can also be the fiefdom of its own leaders. We are a heroic people, but we can also be shackled by our own pessimism and apathy.

    A hero resides in every one of us. It begins in the mind, with one thought that says it can be done. To do all things with pride and dignity, to learn from the lessons of history, to realize that the deeds of our heroes are not hackneyed fables but real, breathing examples of how to live our lives.

    This is a song about nobility. Listen.
