My Journey
Sunday, September 23, 2007

Another week passed. Every passing week means I am one week nearer to my goals; those in progress and those that will be conceptualized as time passes. Taking small steps everyday, the journey is very rewarding, because I know for a fact that these goals are worthwhile. Pursuing them will be a life-long endeavor. And as I grow older, I am thankful for each day, for not everyone has the privilege of growing old. Some die young, so young that their dreams will never see realization. They wouldn't be able to make those first steps because life has been cut so short. So soon.

Dying young, it is a curse. For some it is honorable, if you die for one's country. You don't get a chance to do that everyday. Dying for one's friends, that is love, no greater love than laying down your life for a friend. But to die in the hands of those whom you trust or learned to trust, dying in the hands who you think would be your future brothers. Now that is unfortunate. It would be almost a month since CA Mendez died. And as I read the updates from various news websites, I find it disconcerting that the process in seeking justice for his untimely death is slow. This is not surprising though. It is kind of expected with the prevailing system that we have in our country. And not surprisingly either, most of the people sitting in the government are also products of the same system that Cris wanted to be a part of.

Kudos to everyone striving hard to change the system from within. It is a daunting task believe me. The obstacles are not only from within but also from people outside the system.

It is really just plain sad that Cris cannot go on this same journey that I am in right now. I don't know you but I hope your brother continue yours.

One long week indeed! Twelve hours everyday is driving me crazy. The same routine again this week. Hope I get the energy to keep up with all the craziness at work.
