Old Manila

Seemed like we were just walking and driving on these roads before but somehow we don't remember them at all. It seemed like it never happened.

We neglected our own country. We acted like we didn't care. And now it is too late. We destroyed the country we love and we are still doing it even if we already feel the pain.

The pictures are from the archives of University of Wisconsin, USA library. Manila looked very clean, the people are dressed very pretty and neat and happy. These pictures were probably taken around 1960 to 1975.

We rarely see that now. Maybe even worse when our population doubles up to 180 million in 40 years. But I have hope and I pray that we change.

Chance

Hello my friends. It has been a while since I wrote my last article. This is my new blog site, this is a new chance to write again.

Adsense actually discontinued the monetization of my first blog site because of some unknown reasons. I sent them some emails about it but I had no responses yet. I think I have an idea why, there were a lot of hits coming from the same people over and over again so adsense thought I was doing it to my own site. I dont blame them but what it just so unfair for someone like me that has nothing to do with it.

I have no idea who could have done it but whoever it was it cancelled the monetization. You can still visit that site though http://www.markcedeno.blogspot.com.

Keep posted for new articles on stuff we want to remember, hardly remember and even stuff we disregard.
