CULTURE…Culture is the woven fabric by which we are clothed in.
The fabric consisting of threads of language, food, art, music, literature, commerce, and other essential activities.
Consequently, it is the woven fabric by which we sieve and interpret our experiences, and gathered information, to act the way we do.
People from Iloilo spend yesterday’s money today
People from Cebu spend today’s money today
People from Negros spend tomorrow’s money today
Culture shaped by commerce
HISTORY…Bloggers now hold enough power to shape or re-shape history

Keepers of Visayan Heritage
HERITAGE…Heritage is the full range of our inherited traditions, monuments, objects, and culture. Most important, it is the range of contemporary activities, meanings, and behaviors that we draw from them.
Heritage includes, but is much more than preserving, excavating, displaying, or restoring a collection of old things. It is both tangible and intangible, in the sense that ideas and memories--of songs, recipes, language, dances, and many other elements of who we are and how we identify ourselves--are as important as historical buildings and archaeological sites.
