Paalam Tita Cory...


I watched 'the Buzz' last Sunday and I can't help crying because I was so deeply moved by Kris Aquino's testimonial of her mother. I even tried to pretend that I'm plucking my eyebrows so that I have the "excuse" to be teary-eyed. My mom and my titas were all crying throughout the whole episode. As for me, I was indeed touched and inspired by the story.

Today, I was able to watch ABS-CBN's coverage of Tita Cory's funeral. Being the cry baby that I am, I cried buckets of tears. I was brought to tears by all the yellow balloons flying and yellow confetti falling from the sky. It was really overwhelming...

I'm really not good at putting my thoughts into words. But I just wanted to pay tribute to the woman who is a symbol of democracy - a woman who just wanted to be a good President but turned into one of the greatest President our nation ever had. For people like me who were quite young when she rose into prominence, she will always have a special place in our hearts. Thank you Tita Cory for being our light and for showing us the true meaning of love. I thank God for giving us a great person like you. You made me proud to be a Filipino. :)

May our great God grant Corazon Aquino eternal rest...




When you were born, everyone was smiling and you were crying. Live your life to the fullest so that when you die,everyone will be crying and you will be smiling...
