PhotoHunt: SPORTS




This blog is primarily intended to share the best of what I've seen in my journeys near and far. As I revisit my past posts, I often featured places or objects therein that caught my eye and made me think and/or warranted sharing. Usually places, usually objects, hardly any people made it to my posts.

But if there were Olympics for kindheartedness, for selflessness, for speed in packing relief goods or sorting through hygiene kits, these students would surely earn the gold medal. Hours after Tropical Storm ONDOY ceased pummeling the capital, they were already hard at work collecting food items, clothes, bottled water, among other necessities. Facebook status messages and Tweets were ablaze with call for help and voluntarism. They eased the pain of a disaster (which have likewise damaged many of their own homes) by their sheer will power to be of service to others.

I look to many directions for worthy features that showcase how beautiful work of human hands can be. Theirs' is arguably the finest =]
