What A Wonderful World

I just read this yet-another-political essay from a thread I often visit. It was writen as a rebuttal for this some-other-political essay currently circulating and claiming fame in the Pinoy webways. Both are discussing about the current Philippine political crisis - ano pa ba!?

When I read the first one, I actually wanted to give the author (some aka-Jawbreaker) a pat-in-the-back for a remarkable piece, but having read the rebuttal (by some aka-Jologs) made me think twice regarding the former's points of argument. Actually, both pieces held strong contentions that I'm still undecided on what side I will incline to believe in.

I don't want to go in detail on both essays or even post their entries here for that will mean I'm subjecting myself to be a channel of proliferating their opinion and further confuse the "masses". Ask me for a copy of both though and I might send you a copy, but I have to beg you not to distribute it anymore.

So ano ang point ko?

The smackdown is I realize that what makes the current situation more chaotic and problematic the least is that there are a heck LOT of contrasting opinions and ideas which although speaks sense and haphazard truth, will help none but to feed our mind with confusing propagandist concepts.

Kahit ako... guilty!

Yan ang problema ng Pilipinas. Andaming taong matalino. Sa sobrang dami, sila sila nagkokontrahan, sila sila nagpapasikatan. E kung lahat ng mamamayan ay bobo tapos may isa lang matalinong pinuno... uunlad kaya tayo?

Sinabi ko na din 'to once... a "change" must start from the primal composition of a society in order for it to creep up the network and into the entirety itself. If you want change then shut up whining and start from yourself. Yun lang yun.

Kung lahat ng pakialamero sa Pilipinas kasama na yung mga sumisigaw dito sa baba ng office namin nung nakaraan mga araw ay magsisimulang pumila sa LTO imbes na mangsuhol ng fixer, tumawid sa tamang tawiran sa tamang pagkakataon, maghagis ng nanguyang bubblegum sa wastong basurahan, sumakay ng jeep sa itinatag na "loading" zone, o mag pataw ng tamang tubo sa tinitindang kung ano ang sarap siguro mamuhay sa Pilipinas at hindi na kelangan pang mangibang bayan ni Ate Guy para kumita ng pera.
