It shouldn’t have come to this…
“What an unglamourous way to die!”
That’s partly what my aunt said when she heard that a family member was suffering severe pain from rectal hemorroids and constipation.
“You shouldn’t suffer too much,” she lectured. “What if you die in the toilet? What an unglamourous way to die!”
We haven’t talked lately, but I daresay she would have said the same thing as the news of the unfortunate tragedy at the Philsports Arena shocked the Filipinos all over the world.
“What an unglamourous way to die!”
Blunt. Edgy. Merciless.
But aside from that, another tragic happening has unfolded:
Major politicking on the loose! What’s this I’m hearing about Corazon Aquino, Franklin Drilon, and Susan Roces who were rumoured to have approached ex-President Joseph Estrada? For shame!
So, Mr.Ninoy, we all have a question: Is the Filipino still worth dying for?
Actually, we could phrase that question in many different ways…
Is Wowowee worth dying for?
Is Iraq worth fighting for?
What are we all living for?
Whoops, I see that this post has gotten quite out of hand.
‘Til my next post, kiddos!
