"Proud to be brown" cowboy..

I am proud to be an Australian but I am also proud of my parents' Lithuanian culture, language and traditions.

nationality is expressed by miths, in wide sense, shared by a group of people. natinality is a more or less modern idea and is attached to the creation or formation of a state of the people, french revolution, more or less. the idea is totally european (romantics, century xix). as you are philipino i guess it has to do with the diversity you have there. One thing is important to have in mind for people living outside europe. after decolonization many new territories becoming a state had, and still are struggling to create a nationality which most of the times is contested or that has not truly "emotional" contents for the people living in these states. these are "nations" of new creation with feeble attachment of the population. the most evident case near you is indonesia. but you find examples all around the world. What about philipines?

By your culture , ideas, good deeds , by your character by writing for your countery it is heroism and tehnologies ... every thing you can do it ...
