UP Lantern Parade 2014

I had the great opportunity to witness this year's UP Lantern Parade 2014. This event is the University's way of celebrating Christmas and mark the start of the Holiday break. Different colleges and organizations inside UP create lanterns out of different materials to showcase the creativity and the festive spirit of the Filipino culture.

Seeing the different works of art by the students will make any person feel proud of the creativity and the artistry of the youth today. The lanterns this year depict different faces of the Filipino culture as seen through designs ranging from sarimanok, kalesa to dancers doing pandango sa ilaw.

I was able to snap some shots as the parade passed by.

My Philosophy

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
