There is considerable debate around his actual birthdate, as he himself used several dates. but according to the late Lorenzo Duyanen Sampayan, his childhood playmate and nephew, Carlos was born on November 2, 1913.Carlos Bulosan was, and foremost, a poet and a writer. As such, he himself was constantly in the process of inventing and re-inventing himself. Much as he used his art as a way to grasp the history and future of Filipino Americans, Filipinos, the Philippines, and the world, Bulosan wrote and re-wrote accounts of his life in order to explore more fully its potential, its possibilities. He wrote the American is in the heart for giving a post-colonial, Asian immigrant perspective to the labor movement in America and for telling the experience of Filipinos working in the U.S. during the 1930s and '40s. In the 1970s, with a resurgence in Asian/Pacific Islander American activism, his unpublished writings were discovered in a library in the University of Washington leading to posthumous releases of several unfinished works and anthologies of his poetry.

Literature is an expression of oneself and an impression of others...
Literature is a written process... Literature is a mind process... Literature is an endless process...
...depicting something that is very symbolic, very imaginative, very creative, and very emotional in all ways.
is the image shows that it has a circle or just a board of squares?
one may find it hard to understand or tell,others may perceive it differently from others, just like LITERATURE,works may varies on how others perceive or interpret it, but it has its real point, but the only reason of choosing this picture is because i consider Literature as an art of playing with mind and words just like what i did to this text did you notice how Literature be Literature?
Literature open our minds to a great deal of understanding...
