The 19th Annual Philippine-American Friendship Day Parade & Festival took place on Sunday. I was unable to participate in the fanfare or the festivities, but I did catch part of the set up for the parade in the morning. “The Filipino community is filled with warm, gracious, and welcoming people,” said Mayor Healy in an official press release and my experience certainly confirms that statement. A lovely & lively bunch, the Filipino day parade (as it is informally known) features organizations representing Teachers and Nurses and other worthy professions. Such a positive segment of our community—amazing, considering how much war, repression, exploitation and upheaval that nation has endured through the centuries.The parade is meant to celebrate the day in WWII that the U.S. liberated the Philippines from the Imperial Japanese forces. I love the name, “Friendship Day,” and of course, I’ve always loved the phonics paradox—Philippine the country with a “ph”, and Filipino the person, with an “f.” I’m sure there’s some quirk of the language to explain it, but I’d rather live with the paradox.

My boyfriend left me for another girl. I needed him back desperately because i loved him so much. I became very worried and needed help. as i was browsing through the internet, I came across a website that suggested that Dr.Ebuka can help get ex back fast and stop a divorce or breakup and so on , So I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he told me what to do and i did it then he did a (return Love spell) for me. 28 hours later, my boyfriend came back to me crying and begging for my forgiveness. Today I'm so happy and i want to recommend this great spell caster to anyone that truly needs an urgent solution to his or her broken relationships and marriage. Simply contact the great "Dr.Ebuka" If you have any problem contact him and i guarantee you that he will help you., Thank you Dr Ebuka for saving my broken relationships and brought my boyfriend back to me!" email him at: ebukalovetemple@gmail.com ,you can also call him or add him on Whats-app: +13103599685 ....
