Most of the time, I like being a Filipino. But this morning, as I was surfing the net, I can't help but be irritated. And it was somehow because I am a Filipino.
I want to travel and see the world. It's not impossible because one can always save up for the fares and accommodations. However, what frustrates me is that as a Filipino, I need to get visas to travel to most countries! To get a visa means spending thousands of money just to get that pass. To get a visa means producing all sorts of income statements to prove that you have no intentions to stay in another country illegally. It's sad because I feel restricted. There are so many things that the world has to offer. Yet, it seems like I won't be able to check it out due to these circumstances.
I will never stop trying. I will still do everything to see the world. I just can't help but wish that it was easier to do so. I'm ready to fly and explore what's around me. I just wish that I'd be given the chance to do so...
