Briefly story ito ng African American who defected to Aguinaldo's army. Na-intriga ako at seguro naman kayo rin."

Ang sabi nga nila, the spoils is for the victor and the history book are always manipulated by the victors to write their victory and braveness etc. etc.

History always repeats itself and nothing is absolute in this world.... what is past is past... but history will tells us that one in every century or in a period of time there is always a power but beleive me it will come also to an end..

End is inevitable, in every rise there is a fall....
The nature of a breakthrough is for you to stand on what you have gotten.On what's been
important to you,
what's touched you,
what's inspired you,
what's turned you on.
To stand on that value you've already created for yourself and look out at the possibility
for being alive that opens up.
