SUMILONG

ACTIVITY 1.1

“SUMILONG” a tagalog word which also means “to take shelter” in english. In the song “ULAN” by Rivermaya made me realize that despite the rain(challenges/struggles) that we encounter we will always have a shelter an umbrella who will always helps us to get through it also rain doesn’t mean being sad.Rain also represents memories.We all know that when we were young we play a lot when it’s raining the rain remind us how happy we are in the past.

"Daan-daang larawan ang
Nagdaraan sa aking paningin
Daan-daang nakaraan
Ibinabalik ng simoy ng hangin
Tatawa na lamang, o ba't hihikbi?
Ang aking damdamin, pinaglalaruan ng baliw at ng
Ulan
At sino'ng 'di mapapasayaw ng
Ulan
At sino'ng 'di mababaliw sa ulan "

This part of the lyrics of the song caught my attention due to its message it says that remembering the sweetest memories of the past even if it’s good or bad those memories were unforgettable.
