The TRUTH shall set us FREE—but what truth do we cling to? Is it a truth bought and paid for, stained by the currency of corruption? A mirage of truth, shimmering with self-interest, designed to benefit only a select few? Or a truth cloaked in deception, a wolf in sheep's clothing, preying on our naiveté?

Consider this: the truth you champion today will be the legacy you leave for generations. Will it be a beacon of liberation or a burden of deceit? Our children, and their children, will inherit the world we shape with our choices. Will they thank us for their freedom, or will they weep, yearning to break free from the gilded cage of modern-day slavery—a system of bread and entertainment designed to keep us docile and ignorant of the real truth?

We are all too easily distracted by the spectacle, the modern-day gladiatorial contests where Filipinos fight for survival in an arena of economic disparity. We, the spectators, cheer and jeer, blinded by the drama, oblivious to the grim reality: these gladiators are slaves to a system meticulously crafted by the wealthy and powerful. Their sole aim is to maintain their dominance, even at the expense of a nation lulled into ignorance, squabbling over fragments of truth.

This is my truth. A truth that demands we awaken from our slumber and recognize the chains that bind us. A truth that may be uncomfortable, difficult to accept, but one that holds us accountable for the future we create for the generations of Filipinos to come.
