Charity or Community Extension as a program, shouldn't it have been the most normal thing practiced down daily? Why do we have to organize for it? Or plan? Or make it like it's a special occasion when it should have been a way of life? Maybe because of that hUGE DISCONNECT. Compassion is the highest profession revered by those who knew much enough on the meaning of life. It seems so staged, it feels so politicized or just say a lot of those that are done are hypocritical, a show, a fame-seeking vlog intentions. What happens when the organizer is alone? When those that professed their extension creeds are living their daily lives? One must judge one's heart, to what extent of volunteerism and humanity there is on such moves.
Yes the likes of these children succumbed to those baiting schemes, "premyu, sinsilyo, bread, crim stix, cash" and all of playings and childisness.. Far from just that, let's redeem such tendencies. Asked those children what they are here for? Why God had them here. That in the world all beings don't deserve to be pained and hurt, or worse killed not even a snake not even banakon. For what is a Parasite? Aren't we humans parasite? Tell these to children and reward them those coins if they've answered something. It might be a tricky positive reinforcement. Later debrief them of monetary greediness. That they aren't parasites who just on their mountains plant only saginglakatan and falcata that they may get a living but live their mountains bare leaving the birds without insects to eat and then somehow other insects thrive that bird can't eat, or that birds are nowhere to eat those bugs then became pests. Teach these indigenous Manobo children to protect their mountains and the lifestyles therein. Again ask for a coin, why nowadays it's getting too hot, why it's hard already to plant, why mountains run and slide and kill a bario because of how we became parasites. Tell them a different tale. Tell them that edenic past, tell them that compassionate God of creations. Ask that heaven, eternity future is just the eternity Past, the original plan. Ask them, and let answer if they were parasites or pests. Tell them that these pechay seeds you are to give, these molave-togas, ipil seedlings young as they are if they ever grew, these mangosteen that had just sprouted, that if they succeeded to make them grow in a bag first, till the raining season. That you'll be back and reward them something big of such an achievement... To that eggplant seedlings if they made them bear fruit. Teach them how to handle beings. Teach them that just because you ate rootcrops or cheap and available carbs instead of rice, it's not poverty always, there has just a need to live a simple but loving mindset. Ask them tell them can someone be alive with just kamansi or langka for a week on their backyard? Yes the mindset, those upbringings unto them teach these children. Ask it in questions reward them of coins, bread. Are these means wrong to an end goal of the depth and urgency of the Polycrisis you too are telling them? All you have to make it clear, life is not about food or money. That someday food security is an issue of compassion and not childish candy cravings or materialism.. If only we had lots of time, if only our authorities are good enough to BRAINWASH these children that which is the Best priority now before the worst of times. Bring them back to God of nature. Tell them that to be honest all those plastics we had in the cities all those colors you'll see in malls or even just in the markets, they are toxins soon to kill all fishes on the oceans and leave it filled with endless trash this near 2050. Ask them as in a quizbee with an immediate price of a coin they desire, what happened to the air the Lord gave as in the waters. If they find their way on their young minds we put much garbages and destroyed them along with the soil. Be honest of 2030 climate deadline and irreversibilities we are ahead of. That's where you say very good to their answers, you deserve a coin. Such à play-based wildlife and greening curriculum was tested, it worked. Someday let's be back on those mountains that almost equaled in heights, Mt. Apo's summit. Bless be the People of Don Panaca, Magpet.
