PANANAW NI BAYANI(by Ranne Tubig).

Hanggang ngayon naguguluhan ako.

Alam ba talaga natin ang ibig sabihin ng ‘Kapayapaan’? Naisip ko lang. Bakit may mga taong pilit na nananakop ng ibang lugar? Bakit ba mga taong mararahas? Mapang-angkin at may mapusok na damdamin? Bakit may mga taong gumagawa ng kaguluhan? Bakit may mga taong sakim? Bakit may mga taong mapanghusga at may saradong isipan? BAKIT NGA BA?

Ako, bilang mamamayan ng ating bansa, may nagawa na ba ako para sa inang bayan?

Isang tao lang ako na ginagawa lang ang pang-araw-araw na aking pamumuhay. Gigising sa umaga, papasok sa opisina, uuwi, at matutulog. Ako nga ba bilang mamamayan ng Pilipinas, may nagawa na ba ako sa aking bansa? Sa aking mga kakilala? Sa ibang tao? Sa aking pamilya? Sa aking sarili?

Habang nanonood ako ng balita, iba’t-ibang krimen at katiwalian ang aking naririnig. Sumagi tuloy sa isip ko, nakakasawa na. Puro iyon at iyon ang balita. Puro bangayan, kurapsyon, krimen, kapangahasan, at marami pang iba.

May positibo pa bang bagay sa ating mundo?

Naisip ko tuloy, bakit hindi ko umpisahan sa aking sarili? Siguro kung iyon ang magiging pananaw ng bawat isang tao sa mundo, palagay ko uunlad ang bawat isa. Walang mayaman at mahirap. Walang krimen. Walang kurapsyon. Walang panghuhusga.

Lahat progresibo. Disiplinado. May bukas na kaisipan. KONTENTO.

Bakit nga ba kasi bangayan ng bangayan? Hindi nalang intindihin ang pagsasaayos ng sarili, pagtulong sa iba, at pagtulong na rin sa gobyerno?

Hmm… pagkatapos ko maisip ang mga ito, naisip at naramdaman ko na ang ibig sabihin ng kapayapaan.

Alam ko walang taong kontento sa buhay. Lahat tayo may gusto. Pero sana maisip natin na kung ipipilit lang natin, tayo na rin ang gumagawa ng gulo.

KAPAYAPAAN. Ito ang nararamdaman sa pagkakaroon ang bukas na kaisipan, disiplina, pagmamahal at pagpapahalaga sa Diyos, sa kapwa, at sa sarili, at ang pagkatuto na maging masaya sa maliliit na bagay na meron ang bawat isa.

Ako si Bayani. At ito ang kapayapaan. Para sa akin.

LET'S PROMOTE PEACE Can I give u some advice, don't be angry you can't fight anger with anger, you can't fight ignorance with hate you can't put out a fire by throwing fuel on it true we want peace, so let's encourage peace laugh, smile be happy, do what you do dance, sing, be merry but don't be angry to anyone Their is a purpose, a mission reach out to the heart of others there must be education, enlightenment let us promote peace but don't be angry, let it go If u were to wash someones heart, like a stone idol is washed outwardly the hate will be removed the soul will be cleansed dont let the anger sit in your mind don't let him sit their, keep that seat; for peace of mind the calm mind, that will bring peace within you, and outside of you

LYRICS OF WHERE PEACE BEGINS:

Here we stand together 

One in all humanity

For we all come from the Father 

We are one family

It's our school of love and peace

Where we've learned there's a way

For the world to live in harmony 

And together we all say 

Chorus:

This is where peace begins 

Here we sow the seeds of love 

It all starts with our knowing 

We are one family 

We are one family under God

Not just body but spirit 

On and on we try to be

People who live for others

For love knows no boundaries

Neither race nor religion 

No barriers can keep us apart

Forgiveness, true understanding 

This is how it all starts 

Chorus:

This is where peace begins 

Here we sow the seeds of love 

It all starts with our knowing 

We are one family 

We are one family under God

Ang mundo ay puno ng sagradong yaman Sadyang tinatawag na pagmamahalan Pagkakaisa ng bawat mamamayan Naninirahan sa mundong kapayapaan Bawat taong may pusong tinapay Bawat taong may inaalay Matatanggap ang mundong makulay Pag kapayapaan sa'tin ay tunay Bata man matanda, mahirap/ mayaman Ang kabataan ay pag-asa ng bayan Bawat Pilipinong, mga mamamayan Ating laganapin, ang KAPAYAPAAN!!!!

PeaceTech changed me. Joining this organization made me aware on what's happening to my surrounding. It serves as the eye opener to me and as well as my friends. lastly, all I can say, that PeaceTech made me a better person. I learned that we shouldn't simply exist, we should have a meaningful existence.- from Marco Paolo A. Turla (National Youth Ambassadors Program for Peace 2012)
