I. SYNOPSIS
TITLE: TWISTED LOGIC
AUTHOR: Cito Beltran
PUBLICATION: June 1, 2007
It talks about the Twisted Logic of Filipinos according
to

their

own

beliefs

and

principles.

Twisted

logic

which

clarifies and justifies our intention based on our needs.

It

shows how a Filipino individual define his ways of protecting


his principles in life.
It

was

way

to

know

how

Filipinos

justify

their

wrongdoings from the injustice the felt during hardships and


tough times. Alongside is also how Filipinos defends wrong or
criminal against the right.
The

piece

expresses

wisdom

to

inform

and

make

readers

realize how the people should treat matters that happening in a


difficult situation. It started based on events occurring and
rising from the different parts of the country. It creates a
binding link to all readers from the different parts of the
nation

to

attract

them

on

how

their

values

was

made

and

developed differently and uniquely.


II. ANALYSIS
As part of the Philippine society, it creates ties on how
Filipinos are driven by their emotions whenever their principles
are hit. I say it is powerful enough to convince me that a
Filipino individual of our nations tend to react unconsciously
on the situations given. The piece uses certain events to draw

and make it simply understandable, events in real life situation


that would really happen. The representation of the events does
not imply the whole thing. There is always a reason behind those
things

and

those

reasons

will

make

clear

and

in-depth

understanding from the actions made by the person.


The

judgment,

based

on

the

authors

view,

was

taken

considerably to justify the situation he presented. To say it


fairly, all this matters does not really apply to the lifestyle
of the Filipino majority but only to some people who are just
victims of these injustices.
III. REACTION
I believe that we, Filipinos, are made to be curious of
many things. With that curiosity, we tend search for valid and
true explanations.
Stating my own impression, it gives the impact I wanted to
realize while reading the piece. One is that we are not born
pretenders and liars. We always believe on what we think is
right

and

stand

firmly

on

those

we

believed

in.

Without

thought of what is right or wrong, we always do our action based


on what we feel is needed for that moment. Filipinos have strong
personalities;

we

are

neither

scared

consequences we will be facing ahead.
