The Bright Light Even If Circumstances Sing a Different Tune

The situation right now spells a grim future for the Philippines. GMA's pawns are all spread out in strategic places. She's ready to make the big kill. All scenario-builders out there say it... but only in whispers. We know it like we are certain about black and white. And yet there is that feeling of helplessness. I know, I feel that way too. I've felt that way for quite a while now, since the promulgation of that stupid Supreme Court decision granting GMA the power to appoint the next Chief Justice despite the Constitutional appointments ban.

Anyhoo. After quite a long while of being in that dark corner of helplessness and hopelessness, I thought what else could go wrong for her. And it occurred to me, we are not in complete control of our lives. The biggest pain for her would be when she'd had everything working for her already and the taste of victory as almost at the tip of her tongue... when she's salivating and all for the taste of success. And kaboom! She's dead. After all, it could be just for any reason. A slip in the bathroom. Aneurysm. Choke while eating that fat steak.

In the meantime, while this doesn't happen yet, I'd rally in the streets and make known my stand on issues. I love this country.
