“The way to comfort the souls of the dead is not to blame the innocent Filipina domestic helpers and the people of the Philippines. Our focus should be clearly on the Philippines government and its police. We should support the people of the Philippines to build a more trustworthy government and a more just society.”

 “The Filipina domestic helpers are the victims of their incompetent government, which was unable to provide a decent living for its people. That is why so many Filipinas have to leave their families. They work to take care of other’s children while leaving their own children behind,” wrote Lee.

Couldn’t agree more

Mamisong Donut na pinagulong sa asukal.

Better that any krispy kreme or other fancy  [more expensive] donuts out there.

Ala ala ng mga panahong simple lang lahat.

Kasabay ng milo, kape o mumurahing softdrink,

Pang salubong sa maulang hapon.

I wish we had a more mature form of democracy.

and not the “I’m-free-thus-I-can-do-this-kind-of-thingamajig”.

Agreed! our democracy is selfish and a complete abuse of what democracy intended. Grow up!

Lana

Sa twina ay hinahanap ang animo mo

Di ko mamukaan ang paligid simula ng may magbago

Mga sandali na lumipas, bakit ba di natin napansin,

Nalunod tayo ng mga pagasa’t pangarap

Ngayo’y parang nabunutan ng tinik,

Tinangalan ng hininga

Panambitan pala’y siya ding pag-ibig

sa wakas… siyang nag bubuklod ay siya ding nag bukod.

Sa wakas… Wala na…

Naka hinga na… Wala na…

Haiku Thursday

Waiting for you here

Sun’s high over the green fields

Winter fades to spring
