The Filipino cannot enter the sala.

But as the world's best atsay, she wound up in


the bedroom. She has the ear of the mistress who may be a queen. She may be
the yaya of princes and princesses or a president's children. 

Somehow her multinational wards will imbibe some Filipino values. She rocks
them to sleep with Pinoy lullabies, she tweaks their ears, teaches them
cleanliness and how to be obedient. Once in a while, they taste her rice and tuyo
or hear an aswang story. And they, too, learn to trust in God. 

Somehow it will be a different world because the Pinoy was there.
