THE FILIPINO SPIRIT

    Philippines is a country prone to natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tropical cyclones and floods making it one of most disaster prone countries in the world.

"HINDI ANG MGA KALAMIDAD ANG SISIRA NG AMING KINABUKASAN"





 But Filipinos  are known to have a strong spirit in times of disaster and foreign countries acknowledges  this attitude and act of Filipinos.

  Specially when the Typhoon Haiyan or Typhoon Yolanda hit the Philippines many Filipinos were devastated. And many family has suffer from the cruelness of this typhoon. Typhoon Yolanda  left the Philippines so devastated.

   But not  a Typhoon will end their happiness and their will to live. Because they have their strong and resilience spirit they know how to still smile even pain can't or never stop it.
