Dictatorship sat at the top. Democracy stepped down. People felt such anxiety and grief. Still, they chose a Revolution in a nonviolent way. EDSA Revolution stood up with the hearts of Filipinos filled with nationalism.
Sprinkled with brown and yellow colors, and the vast blue sky, the stationary Epfianio de los Santos Avenue upheld a peaceful revolution against Marcos. Driven by the corruption they saw for past decade, 2,000,000 civilians were involved in the revolution which longs for democracy. They brought down fear forthe sake of the country's freedom. It wasn't easy. Marcos is firm.
Time came and Marcos fled the country. Everyone was so much glad of they heard and dance along the streets of Metro Manila. File videos of different broadcasting networks were proofs of the happiness in every Filipino's eyes when Marcos vanished. Obviously, those smiles weren't just a simple smile. It was a smile that lasts forever.
Sacrifice, perseverance, and nationalism made the way to democracy. It was the effort and love for the country of every Filipino that made them strong to fight for freedom. Indeed it was a remarkable highlight of our nation. We showed to the world what we can do for democracy.
Anchorman of CBS, Bob Simon said, "We Americans like to think we taught the Filipinos democracy. Well, tonight they are teaching the world."
