October: Way too Long
I am a Christian and I do acknowledge Christmas day. More so, I can’t always wait till the day it will come. That’s why I always thought that October is way too long for me. It adds more days to my waiting; better be November for there are a lot of non-working Holidays so I can relax. But I can’t seem to grip the fact that I will be waiting for too long moments before October would end.
Due to its lengthy duration many events would surely come up that would catch my attention. Barangay Election is one and there are still many more to come. The current government regime seems to have a fall-down state brought about by scandalous revelations and petty accusations. What was really the truth behind the lousy Impeachment accusation? Was it really done for its real purpose — that is to prosecute the official concerned or was it really to assure another year of governance.
I have no prejudice with the government and I don’t condemn the present officials. No matter how many officials we place in that position they are just the same. They are all sheep with similar quality of wool. They are clothed with similar quality of threads used. So in this connection, I can’t seem to condemn one and praise another for they are just the same.
I can’t deny that I am a beneficiary of at least one of the governments services. I was a scholar and I am glad that I became one. I can surely say that it exceeded my expectations and the real fact that it was not a lousy one — for there is no scholarship that is lousy; they are all great, owing to the value of there real purpose. So it is justly to say that no matter how disagreeable the officials that fore run our country as long as many useful projects are in I have no comment.
I my self can’t have a firm stand on this issue for every coin has its two faces. We should not judge for we ourselves have lapses toward our country. We should not blame the failure of the leaders our country unless, we, ourselves, have done something to uplift its standing. And lastly we must not blame the officials that govern us for it is the majority of us who chose that certain official to govern over us — the blame is on us all, the voters.
So this coming Barangay election: Vote Wisely.
