Mangaliwa Muna Ako

Thanks to Mama! She let me have my left-handedness. Now, im in the same league of the great lefties—Einstein, Isaac Newton, Alexander the Great, Napoleon Bonaparte, Jack the Ripper, Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Pablo Picasso, Beethoven, Jimi Hendrix, and Manny Pacquiao.

Just because Jesus sat at the "right" hand of God, lefties, like me, are branded "freaks, evil, weirdos, deviants, non-conformists". Rebels are in fact called ang kaliwa or the Left. Even cheating your girlfriend/boyfriend is called pangangaliwa.

Ouch for us left-handed! But time has changed and you see more of us now. More parents are accepting us normal now, but some still force their children to write right.

So, mangaliwa muna tayo! Right is not always right, the left could also be right—just look at the great men.
