That's the spirit of a Cebuano right? Being strong and independent, rising up despite the calamities we've endured. Even though we haven't fully recovered from the devastating earthquake and floods, we can still feel the spirit of Christmas everywhere not just on the decoration alone but also to the people sharing their gifts and blessings. I was also saddened by the churches destroyed by the earthquake. Eh, paano na yon? Malapit na ang simbang gabi? 😞
