it's funny how things can go and just passed you by. and this May 14, 2007 will be a new (hopefully), beginning for this country. it's election time. in my own hometown, Cabuyao, Laguna, my current mayor is the wife of the past mayor. and now, he'll be running again. it's sad because, ang kapal na ng mukha nila. they've been in the business of politicking since i was in high school. that was like... almost 17 years ago. and still they're in the position. but, the only thing that they can do is promise people this and that, and then forget all about t afterwards. i also heard that the dean of the Pamantasan ng Cabuyao who molested and violated an student has been released a week after he was imprisoned. why?! because of the mayor of Cabuyao. he was set free just by being a follower. what an achievement for him!
as far as i know, there are three (3) people who are running for mayoralty in my town. and hopefully, the current mayor will not do anything "magical", you know. votes being miscounted and all. i have faith in the government, it's because i have no option. i am in need to believe that the current President of the Philippines is doing her best. but i have my doubts also. just like GMA Network's ad says, "sana may magbago. sana, sa isa kong boto.".
i will make sure i will vote and exercise my rights, i will pray and ask God or BEG GOD to watch and help those poll watchers to guard the votes. hopefully, my countrymen and townsmen will realize SOONER that our votes are sacred and that it's one of the tools we can use to build this country. let's help one another.
