Million People March, Araw ng mga Bayani, Jose Rizal

ACTIVISM n. the doctrine of practice or vigorous action or involvement as a means of achieving political or other goals, sometimes by demonstrations, protests, etc.

PATRIOTISM n. devoted love, support and defense of one's country; national loyalty.

In light of the current Million People March, I'd like to share my two cents. Personally, I believe in patriotism and not just activism. Nowadays (or maybe ever), it just isn't enough to lose your voice trying to cavil and scream your utter discontent at the government.
