i’m surely not what u may call “maka-cory” but as a mother for her children and how she deliberately opposed during those times that Kris was not behaving so well, i admired her. I also admire her for her courage as a woman to fight what she believed is right and i admire her most for being prayerful in times of distraught and faith in God during those times that she’s already suffering from cancer.

i believed it is very inappropriate and insensitive to discuss and object to whatever praises and “pamamaalam” of her followers at this point in time, anyway this blog is intended for pagpapaalam to Mrs. Aquino and not created to question her integrity nor anything to do with her shortcomings.

it’s about time we all learn to respect each others point of view or at least try to be logical in expressing our own view and to know where and when is the right time to air our own grievances.

PAALAM TITA CORY may all the people who unite with u today find the courage to unite again if needed in restoring our democracy.

Ahahahahaha,

You think as much of “the Wolf” as I do,
sleeze in a suit.

Paul Wolfowitz is the kind of person you’d ask, “Please don’t do me any favors.” No disrespect to former President Aquino, but getting complimented by him is like gettin a recommendation from Joseph Goebbels.

if you want a sense of a piece of Pinas society with
Cory Aquino’s death, look to Kris Aquino and Noynoy Aquino. Also go to EllenTordesillas’ site, like this thread:

Hope Comes in Yellow
By NORMAN SISON

How lost our nation now
Our only guiding light gone
Just when the night grows darker

But ever hopeful we’ll remain
Deliverance will come, that we know
As certain as the sun rises in the east

Though we wake up orphaned
We now bear the light
That our mother shone for us

Ironic but it could be that God gifted Cory with a cancer so that he may join Ninoy.

Monsoon, my condolences to you and your family. The manner of how Cory left us leaves a unique imprint that only those whose lives were touched by cancer can only understand.

The first time I discovered the word “cancer” was when it took one of my best friends away from me. I was only 15 then; he, 12.

Almost five years ago, on August 30, 2004, my wife was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. She is among the statistical 16 percent of survivors who lived past five years from date of diagnosis. That means each day that my kids and I have with her is a gift.

I wish you and your family well.

Sincerely,

Norm
