Joey Ayala’s Langay-Langayan
On this day, on this very hour, I am nursing an aching wound in my soul. I am sad and unusually depressed. My mind wanders to that long long night of terror in our land. . .to that nightmare in history called Martial Law! And it makes me sick. I open the Youtube, hoping to find solace. And I come upon Joey Ayala and his song “Wala Nang Tao sa Sta Filomena”. And the song summons living memories that weigh me down even more. Until I feel my soul in my eyes.
Consumerism, a Dupery
If there’s ever a cultural phenomenon that has pervaded Philippine society in all its layers and dimensions, it is “consumerism”. It has conquered and enslaved the Filipino psyche like some kind of addiction. It constitutes a large share of the Filipino culture.
Sign of People’s Anger
A woman carrying a gun and passing through Gate 2 walked into the grounds of Malakanyang Palace. According to the news report, the woman didn’t say she intends to shoot President Noynoy Aquino. But didn’t mince words in saying , “Why has the people’s miserable plight gone to this extent?”
Politicians’ Game
It’s amusing to hear President Noynoy Aquino lament what he perceives as “very early campaigning activities” by some politicians. His twit extends to the tune of an exhortation—good if it includes his colleagues in the Liberal Party! —that instead of politicking this early they should focus their attention on the many problems faced by the nation.
