Have you heard of this traveling journal of filipinos? It started last February 2007 by a man named Wilfredo Pascual. These 2 journals have been travelling around the world since then until last July 27, 2008 finally these two moleskin diaries finally meet again and reached their final destination, in the hands of Daphne Osena-Paez.It has been handed down, delivered via mail or courier by 40 people to each other, after filling up their allotted four pages in the diary. It contains stories of different people, strangers to each other...entrusting their special memories and mementos in these diaries.
Everytime i think of it, it gives me shivers for these diaries are so precious and important. It contains other people's kept moments that they treasured very much. Some of them attached their old passports, train tickets and other small yet very meaningful things. Scribbles can be found on each page expressing the person's thoughts.
W.W.Y.D? --> What.Would.You.Do?
Hmm... well what will I write in and perhaps entrust in that diary if ever i had the chance to be part of it? Good question, i need a lot of thinking to do because i want to make use of that 4 pages, i wanna make sure i'll write something that i can share with other people...something like a life-long learning experience...
...i think i already know what to put in their... something about the heart...heart of a person like 'me'. There are still a lot of people who doesn't understand others, the way they are as an individual. And i think that's worth the 4-pages in that diary...something about acceptance, cruelty and discrimination... proving oneself's worth amidst all...
