R.I.P. Corazon Aquino
August 1, 2009
I was saddened, really. More sad than any other “celebrity” deaths that occurred this year, for Cory Aquino isn’t the ordinary “celebrity”, she was the mother of a nation at a time when we’re searching for a new leader to take us out of dictatorship, she was the widow of a slain hero who offered his life so we can all wake up from the realms of dictatorship.
Cory Aquino, thanks for being the rallying figure that eventually paved the way for the realization of probably one of our proudest moment as a nation, the “1986 People Power”.
Cory Aquino – you deserve to be with Ninoy now, I respect what you’ve done, knowing you gave it your best shot to uplift the lives of Filipinos around the country….its just some Gringo has to screw it up…but that’s another matter.
Rest in Peace Tita Cory….

To borrow words from HST, during the 1986 people power we were ” riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. . . . with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark” – It was our proudest moment as a nation…Cory Aquino showed us the way to a moral and righteous Philippines….sadly we failed to follow…NOW, even in her death, she’s still reminding us to do the right thing.
