| Kadayawan is just one of the many ways which depicts to the world the sub-cultures of the diverse Filipino culture-distinctive yet creating an aura of harmony.It is just right to thank God for His steadfast abundant blessings. Nature is His gift and its goodness still inundates despite the rampant cruelty in he society-and in Mindanao as a whole. Besides, a gesture of gratefulness is only what it takes to show our appreciation to our Creator for all the beatitudes coming the way of the “Land of Promise". | |||
