TRUE PINOYS/PINAYS..

TRUE PINOYS . PINAYS..
  ok, first off, to be considered a true Pinoy , you have to speak the lingo,, Tagalog, illocano , Panga-latok, Visayan , etc.. You also make eye contact when you meet or greet other pinoys.. Thats the difference killer, most locals,, filipino's who grew up in the states adopted the American Lifestyle and totally forgot about their heritage and make fun of FOBS- fresh off the boat.. yea,, if you speak with any kind of accent , your a pinoy, if you listen to pinoy music and look for filipino food over burritos or tacos,, your a true filipino.. the hard truth is most pinoys don't like that type of food,, they like sea food , over refried beans,, and rice over beans,, But that's the hard truth.. Most filipino's talk shit in front of other local borns,, because they can,, I know I can and have done it , and the poor old locals are lost. That's why locals , deep down despise pinoys , because they cant relate or understand their ways.. Just think if filipino's can leave their homeland and learn english , why cant the cocky " mayabang " locals learn tagalog,, simple they dont want to,, they feel learning the lingo , and developing an accent would be embarassing to their peers,, to bad , you guys let ego and foolish close minded friends to rob you from your true identity.. ok.. But the funny or odd thing is Locals try so hard to claim Pinoy power and they have no clue to their history or back ground that makes up a true pinoy.. Buying shirts and flags and wearing posting them on your car , doesn't make you a pinoy,. it makes you a wanna be,, a poser.. But the poor old locals flash their pride , with out really feeling the pinoy spirit.. The Prime example Manny Pacquiao,, he has kicked the living stuffing out of all the Mexican legends , and the Brits , and American heroes,, and yet he remains humble and true to himself,, While the trash talking loud mouth local born pinoys , talk crap about other fighter and to be honest embarrass themselves as well as the Filipino's , the true ones that really support and carry themselves properly.. I respect those pinoys that have the honor and committment , as for the locals , I admire the energy and support they have for Manny , but I dont like the dis respect , or lack of manners that many locals display at Mannys fights. But Posers will be poser and wanna bes will continue .. But one thing for sure ,, Locals really dont like Filipino borns , and why should they? I mean different cultures , different languages , different ways of thinking. To be honest , locals can learn so much from the filipino born citizens,, like living on modest means,, or enjoying life with very little money. Or simply encouraging natives to strive to be better. Locals are so caught up with image , style , fashion etc,, that they really don't know the spirit of pinoys.. Bahala na .. whatever .. fits Locals thinking.. I know philippines has many dialects of tagalog and that's why it so divided among its people , but The emergence of Manny Pacquiao and his true love of his country , I see a new beginning and a showcase of true talents of P.I. , I;m happy for my people and I may not fit totally into to Pinoy way,, especially my tagalog sounds like a white guy saying it.. But atleast I try,, Magadang Hapon - Good Afternoon, Kumusta ka ? how are you?,, Siyempre- of course.. of my favorite " Sa susunod" see u later.. I suggest locals learn some terms and be open to pinoys , because no matter how educated , or how cultured -brain washed you have become,, to the everyone else including White America.. you are still a Filipino or PINOY or rice burner , slope eye.. etc.. We should turn against our brothers and sisters of the Philippines , but I have seen too many cases when Locals make fun of and fight with Pinoys over image , life style and heritage. if you haven't been to PI , make that trip , I know when I did I found a whole new understanding of my identity and my parents upbringing, but you have to live it and see it and feel it in order to find out if you truly are Pinoy. The water wells, the ethnic foods, the simple ness of people will either make you feel at home or make you feel this is ghetto , third world, below my standards,, My guess if you grew up in the states most of your life,, you will not like the PI,, For my many Pinoy and Pinay friends I cherish your friendship and I respect your ways, I didn't always , I was one of those guys that mocked your accents and styles of dress , but after my visits to the PI, especially Pangasinan province I discovered that I'm a true Pinoy, and I like Filipino foods and ways of living. Sure, I grew up American , so cal dude,, but I also understand that my heritage , back ground and blood lines run through Filipino ancestry and no matter how much education , brain washing , adapting , living the American lifestyle,, bottom line I'm a Pinoy and proud of it.. For those who hate hearing Pinoys speak the lingo , carry themselves as humble , non threatening people , like Manny Pacquiao.. He is a true Pinoy and I love everything he stands for AND FIGHTS FOR.. HE TRULY LOVES THE PHILIPPINES AND ITS PEOPLE AND MAYBE SOMEDAY .... GOD WILLING.. THE PHILIPPINES WILL UNITE AND BECOME A TRUE SUPER POWER.. i know it may be too much to ask from one man, but I see many Filipino;s starting to make the break through.. Philippine Allstars dance crew.. , Arnel Pineda - lead singer of super rock group Journey.. Donito Donaire - current world champion.. Elita Loresca paalam na... Good bye.. and take care..until the next startling perspective .. THE SOURCE PRODUCTIONS..@2011
