Now that the verdict has been rendered, what's next?

The 44-day hiatus of the impeachment trial of CJ Corona has ended with no apparent drama both from the prosecution and defense panel. It's satirical to say that the verdict by the Senate impeachment court against Corona as “a victory of the people.” I don't see this as a victory to the masses.

Reality Exist in Me

In a certain faraway land, the cold is so intense that words freeze as soon as they are uttered, and after some time then thaw and become audible, so that words spoken in winter go unheard until the next summer..ummmm, I should prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter.

My ZALORA Wishlist

When I was a little boy, I used to wished whenever I saw a shooting star. Little did I know that it was a meteor. Poor meteoroid, there are probably thousands who whisper their wishes as it plunged into its death. Every year, I also wish as I blow the candle on my birthday cake. But I can't remember any of it came true. Perhaps I should wish to a genie from a magic lamp. The problem is, "Where can I find such?". It's good I learned from Nuffnang,...

It is no wonder, President Aquino did not pressure his allies  in the Lower House to push for the passing of the RH Bill. Just like the pasts administrations, our government has no backbone on population issue compared on the hard opposition from the Catholic Church...

It's the Making of Resolutions that Counts

A friend recently told me that he saw the picture I've posted on my facebook. Its about my New Year's resolution to quit on my smoking habit.At first, I've tried to keep that resolution. Every year, I produce a sadly familiar repertoire of aspirations dealing with that bad habit. I always mean well, but it's clear that I lack firmness of purpose.Well, to my mind, that's the essence of New Year's Resolution. It's a wet sponge, slurping up the...
