Hello! As you know, I am a staunch supporter of human rights. And as I know, most of you are too. That is why I am imploring your help. The Philippines needs a Mental Health Act. Here’s why:

Most companies in the Philippines do not cover mental health-related issues. What’s more horrifying is that there are only 0.05 psychiatrists per 100,000 people in the country when, according to the World Health Organization, worldwide, 1 in 4 people suffer from mental health problems. The Philippines has 450 million people living with depression - the highest number in Southeast Asia. Moreover, there is still a stigma that exists toward mental health issues.

It takes all of 3 minutes to sign this petition and be one step closer to a Mental Health Act established in our country. If you would rather bow out of signing the petition (which I would totally respect), the least you could do is to please, please, please reblog this post so that others may be able to see it. If you currently live in one of the amazing countries in the world other than the Philippines, please reblog this.

Huskies on water

Russian photographer Fox Grom on his recent walk with his dogs has captured a beautiful series of photos. He discovered a frozen lake covered with rainwater that created the illusion of the dogs walking on water. The end results are stunning, the way the water blends with the sky is unlike anything I’ve ever seen.
