“The ‘TUKOD’ gives the structure a ‘FILIPINO’ look…” According to my classmate, while he saw me drawing this, that the tukod, or the diagonal post used to prop up the roof extension and awnings, makes the structure more Filipino, and it got me thinking of why the tukod gives such a look.
We Filipinos are kind and supporting in nature, we may be selfish, uncourteous and unable to accept sometimes, but in the end we still try to become helpful and supportive of others, like the tukod that moves diagonally, away from the structure, but in the end helps support its roof and helps protecting it.
