Totoy bilisan mo,
bilisan mo ang takboI
lagan ang mga bombang nakatutok sa ulo mo
Totoy tumalon ka, dumapa kung kailangan
At baka tamaan pa ng mga balang ligaw
Totoy makinig ka, wag kang magpa-gabi
Baka mapagkamalan ka't humandusay dyan sa tabi
Totoy alam mo ba kung ano ang puno't dulo
Ng di matapos-tapos na kaguluhang ito
Refrain :
Hindi pula't dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay di syang dahilan
Hangga't marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman
Chorus :Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Di matatapos itong gulo
Iligtas ang hininga ng kay raming mga tao
At ang dating munting bukid, ngayo'y sementeryo
Totoy kumilos ka, baliktarin ang tatsulok
Tulad ng dukha, nailagay mo sa tuktok
Hindi pula't dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay di syang dahilan
Hangga't marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman
Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok
Di matatapos itong gulo
Iligtas ang hininga ng kay raming mga tao
At ang dating munting bukid, ngayo'y sementeryo
Totoy kumilos ka, baliktarin ang tatsulok
Tulad ng dukha, nailagay mo sa tuktok
Di matatapos itong gulo

I JUST NEED HIM
I don’t need a handsome guy., I just need someone who tries hard to be one for me;
I don’t need a rich one; just someone who is willing to give me his all;
I don’t need an intelligent man; but someone who is willing to learn for and with me;
I don’t need someone who makes me laugh until my jaw drops; just someone who comforts me when I’m sad;
I don’t need a man who says the words “I love you” all the time; just someone who feels when I need to hear them;
I don’t need someone who calls me honey; just someone who treats me as his own;
I don’t need chocolates and roses; just a desperate hug from him everytime we fight;
I don’t need someone who promises forever, but someone who will never ever let me go;
I don’t need praises; just pure honesty all the time;
I don’t need promises; just efforts
I don’t need eternity; I just need some time
Others dub me as insensitive, while others call me demanding. Some say I’m hard to understand; others say I can’t understand.
Is it hard to give me the things I need?
Whatever you say, I don’t need you; I just need him.

YOUTH ARE NATION BUILDERS- HOW COME?
Article II of the 1987 Philippine constitution states in its section 13 that the state recognizes the vital role of the youth in nation building. We, the youth, are nation builders, indeed. But, do we care? Are we concerned about all the happenings in our country? Are we dreaming for a better Philippines? A definite YES would be the answer. But, the biggest question is, are we doing something? Are we converting our ideals into actions? Does everyone hear our clamors for change, our clamors for solutions? NO! This is what differentiates liberal youths from those that are not. A liberal youth knows where he stands; a liberal youth doesn’t just know what is good for this country, but he also does something to achieve it; a liberal youth acts.
I feel depressed every time I hear that the youth of today are apathetic. Apathy is the one that kills us. Apathy means lack of concern, lack of patriotism, lack of love. Aristotle once said that he who is unable to live in the society, or who has no need because he is sufficient for himself must either be a beast or a god, and therefore he is not part of the state. We are not beasts, nor gods. We are part of this society no matter how we deny it. No matter how we try not to be affected, we are affected. We are part of this society and thus we must do something for its betterment.
Our history is a witness of the struggles of the youth of the past. Now is the time for us, the youth of today, to prove that the good of this country lies in our hands. We are the future of this nation, and so, we must contribute in its transformation. We must transform this nation into a better one- a nation of unity, a nation of peace, a nation of progress.
Young liberals speak; young liberals listen; young liberals know; young liberals act; young liberals are definitely this country’s nation builders! Our challenge now is for us to prove to them that we are worthy to be called so, that we are not apathetic, that we are truly liberals!

AD- JOURN Basic Writing and Hands-on Blogging Seminar
AD- JOURN BASIC WRITING AND HANDS- ON BLOGGING SEMINAR
Kabataang Liberal ng Pilipinas- the youth- wing of the Liberal Party of the Philippines held a writing and blogging seminar/ workshop last 10 September 2006 at the Liberal Party National Headquarters. This only manifests the party's dedication to diminish the common apathy of the youth of today. The ideas and feelings of a nation's youth are indeed vital for its existence. However, they are often neglected. Why? Because we, the youth are perceived as voiceless and afraid. Why again? because we allow them to perceive us that way. Our ideas and feelings are vital, and therefore, they must be expressed. Writing is a way of expression. We write because we want our ideas and feelings to reach that far; we write because we want every individual to know what is inside us; we write because we want to make a difference; we write because we know we can make a difference.
I am really grateful that the Liberal Party of the Philippines is one with us in our clamor for change. We, the youth can make a difference, indeed. So, we must act, if not now, when? When the Philippines is already in the verge of collapsing? Think again.
