SALAMAT, CORY!

For Ninoy, the Filipino is worth dying for, but for Cory, the country is worth living for. According to Ninoy, it is better to die a significant death than to live an insignificant life. And, indeed, the greatness of Ninoy as a Filipino leader is due to the significance of his death, while that of Cory is due to the significance of her life.

We chart our destination in life, but God charts our destiny. President Cory Aquino did not chart her way to the Presidency. She became President of our country by destiny.
Salamat, Panginoon! Salamat, pangulo!

May she rest in peace and may our country live in peace

The problem, benign0, is that your standards of what is sablay might not be the standards of others.

Now, if you think it is sablay, so what? Why should people submit to your standards.

Let me tell you something. Ikaw din sablay.

@ J here:

It seems that some people forget that FV is a blog. Not part of tradittional media where news (being a reporter) and opinion (being an “activist”) must be seperated. For some people this post might be sablay. But so what?

Yeah J, so what if it is sablay, right? Pwede na yan, right? That's the trouble with us Pinoys -- our high tolerance for the sablay. And we all wonder why all this aiming for "Galing Pinoy", "The Filipino Can", and "Wow Philippines" crap comes across as no more than hollow slogans. Pinoy nga naman talaga Parang aso. Matangkad lang kapag naka-upo. (Check out the full poem here!) - :D

Ben,

I appreciate that. And I recognize my style is abrasive sometimes, and I need to be less the “know it all”. I’m working on it, but it is hard to reshape concrete. Needs a chisel . . .

well, speaking for myself, joe, of course i think you are permitted under the rules. i’m just concerned that there’s an awful lot here who feel insulted whenever their pov’s are criticized or questioned. they just cannot separate the comment from the commenter, the message from the messenger. that’s very filipino.

Kaya nga Atty. Ben.

Agree naman ako na iyong sinasabi na “sa pamamagitan ng aking mga putak, nahuhubog ang kabuuan ng aking mga pananaw sa mga bagay-bagay. consistent naman ako, di ba ding?”

Kaya nga, Atty Ben, ang humble at tiklop-tuhod kong hamon sa iyo’y magsulat ka sana ng ganap na piyes upang may higit na matutunan pa ‘kaming maliit’ na kuntil-butil na talino mula sa iyo.

Gets mo na hanga ako nguni’t disappointed at bitin, Atty. Ben?

Sige na.
