negotation.

Walking through the parallels of life
Trying get past perils of fights
Negotiating matters of the heart
cuz I wanna stay outta the dark

been a real lesson lately about what it means to exist in this world and how we are constantly in a state of negotiation, regardless of the situation.

depends on one's concept about "good" and "evil." i do not believe they exist, but one should strive to do what they can for the community and move beyond themselves.

This blog/research follow my lines of thoughts and understanding while trying to understand: How do second generation Filipina American college students reclaim power that was denied to them culturally through gender?
