Me Oh, My Oh, on Current Events.............

There are times when forgetting can be just as important as remembering. But to rewrite history is another story. I'm not hallucinating, Martial Law did happen! I may not have been born at the time, but one thing I'm sure of is that it happened. I may not have winessed it first hand, but I still remember seeing on reruns in black and white of the late ex-President Ferdinand Marcos saying 'I now declare Martial Law'. It's like saying the Holocaust never happened, or even World War I or World War II. Stop asking for history books to be rewritten bwiset.

Time may heal all wounds. But it cannot erase the scars left behind. The scars will probably remain to serve as reminders. Just ask all those people who were tortured, jailed, and whose human rights were violated between 1972 to 1981. Not to mention the ones who were brutally murdered, ewan ko kung paano niyo sila tatanungin. Ano ba naman kayo, para kayong hindi kapwa Filipino.

There is a world of difference between good sound reasons and reasons that sound good. Huwag niyo baluktutuin ang katwiran. I know you're all smart, kaya nga nandiyan kayo. But stop making fools of us all. We're not as stupid as you think we are.

This is why I avoid watching the news. Apparently an impossible task since Joel loves keeping abreast of current events. Ako ang na hi high blood. kainis
