Leaving the Dark Norms of the Past

Women in the past few decades are ignored and are kept away from society. They are usually treated as things used for pleasure and often seen by the society as slaves. Without rights, limited roles, and isolated from the world we live in. With this, they are fueled with the desire to seek equality in opportunities, rights, and roles.

This March, we celebrate National Women's Month to empower women in the society. With the theme "WE for Gender Equality and Inclusive Society", it aims to amplify the voice of women against abuse, neglection, discrimination, and harassment. The voices we are unable to hear in the past echoes in the present. A scream for change, a scream that should have been heard before.

NWM tries to depict an equal society for everyone especially women. Bury the old norms and reborn a new community for all. A society far from harm and danger. A society that doesn't exclude anyone.

All of us should have equal opportunities and rights. We should be able to live peacefully and happily. With inclusivity and equality, we would achieve a brighter and safer space for everyone: The true purpose and importance of NWM.

Giving is Not Only for a Season

Christmas is something celebrated every 25th of December. In the month of September, the rising of Ber Months, and the month where the Christmas countdown kick off. November, the month before the Christmas Season, people starts to buy Christmas decorations and gifts. Parties and Programs are also planned during this time. As we approach the month of December, people starts to sing Christmas carols and decorate houses including streets, as a symbol of the beginning of Festive Season; The Season of Giving. A lot of people celebrated Christmas, but not myself and my family. We are members of the Church of Christ and it is against the teachings of our Lord God. However, there is one thing we celebrate during that day, the day of my birth. We may not celebrate Christmas, but we celebrate the day that god decided to bring me into this world. Large feasts and receiving gifts is a part of celebrating it. Out of town trips as well as shopping is also...

Handing Wisdom

Dear Ma'am Evelyn Vera Cruz, Teaching is not only about discussing about how Internet works, it's about how you give impact and change your student's lives. Before I begin this simple letter for you, I would like to greet you a Wonderful and Joyful Teacher's Day! Information Communications Technology is one of the subjects that I am not interested. Over the past few years, my grades in ICT is low and that's why I don't really like the subject that much. In the first week of class, you showed me the bright side of the subject you are teaching. Formerly, I usually don't review if there are upcoming quizzes but you fueled me to strive harder and be diligent with my studies. I was then possessed with laziness but because of you constantly reminding us that we should focus and exert more effort for our future, I decided to dismiss my previous actions, behavior, and attitude. I will f...

Voyager 1: Another Journey

Starting another year, beginning another quest in life, that's my own definition of a new year. The past year has been better than 2020, a lot of challenges come on my way but I have paved the way to where I am now. The year 2022 has officially ended, but like the old saying says "He who does not look before him will never reach his destination", at the beginning of this year I will look back at my flaws and achievements. By just looking back at it, you will not reach the destination you want, effort and perseverance to improve day by day will keep you moving. But the real question for improving is, do you have the guts to do it? For the past few years, I have always wanted change, not only for myself but also for others. Everyone is hungry for change and improvement, but not everyone is willing and possesses the courage to take a step toward it. Last year, I am a coward, one of the people that didn't take a step, but my resolution this year is to...
