So, we are yet stuck in another phase of our twisted politics. However, this time, it seems to have been much more of a nationwide concern. A lot of people voice out their own opinions on what they direly want to see: a change. Yet, this change which they refer to would considerably include another people power. It is quite a sad reality as to how we, the citizens, tend to cling so much to "people powers" thinking that it is a means to eradicate the complications surrounding our government. When things get a little bit too out of hand, we push through with those violent rallies-- with people screaming their lungs out for an opposing position. Perhaps sometimes, we do not just realize that maybe there are still other ways on how we may deal with such circumstances. Actually, having an additional episode of the popular Edsa series, for me, is such a shame. Think about it, whenever we do not like a certain leader, we push ourselves to host people powers in order to drive them away. Afterwards, we just come into the conclusion that the replacement was somehow just a mimic of the ruthless president-- or even a worse version, at that.

Now, do not get me wrong here. By all means, with all that is circulating around the rampant corruption of our government, I am not on their side. I have seen the visible inconsistencies of such officials as they state their own account regarding the eminent NBN-ZTE deal. Yes, it has garnered the spotlight for the longest time possible. And, it has tapped once again the anti-GMA's to hold various protests in accordance to their command that she resign. I for one do not call GMA to resign but to state the truth. Her side has not yet been cleared because as to how I see it she is quite tangled up in her own set of lies. There are visible discrepancies and if you have been reading/hearing the news lately, you could have caught her in her sunken in her, if I may say, mendacity.

Once you have been caught fooling the people, trust is hard to regain. That pretty much explains why many people are resentful about GMA continuing her reign. I do not blame the people if they react to this scandalous issue by means of rallies. Afterall, we were made to believe that GMA won against FPJ by at least a million (added) votes. And for this proven fact, I, for one, have lost a great amount of trust on our own president. She had fooled us, but she is just fooling her self even more.

This is a sad, heavy reality that Filipinos all over the world have to bear with. We all share this big bag of burden on our backs and we just cannot get rid of it easily. We have to walk with it everyday, hoping that the truth will come out to spare us from this suffering.

One day, I pray that the truth will come out. Our president must find a way to blurt what is right because it is not just about protecting her own identity as a country leader.. rather it is about cleaning up the mess our country is currently trying to fix. This would enable us to patch things up, filling up the pieces of the puzzle which, as of now, is in disarray. As citizens, I believe it is our duty be informed of what is true; to know the real side of the various mismatched accounts presented.

As for me, the existing complications brought about by clashing versions regarding the NBN-ZTE deal stretched me far off on both sides. Yet, no matter how disappointed I was, I am still here standing..hoping that one day I may hear the truth.. and that the truth will all set us free.

It is love month once again but it just damn sounds as plain to me as some useless old crap. Fine, it is February but what's the big deal? I am loveless anyway and I don't have time to spend much interest on such a diminutive event. Maybe, this will evolve into something much awaited once I get to give myself the chance to love and be loved by a special someone. But, love month does not just limit itself to loving someone else. Mine, for now, is a different approach.. it's love month for myself. Literally.

A fabulous February to everyone.
