Blame me Mr.President


One of my Facebook friends wrote this on her wall "My mind is on Philippine Election right now...I Am sad for I am not there to be a part of it". Reading this just makes me sad because unknown to her we have the same feelings. 

This is the first time that I didn't participate in the Philippine Election because I am now living in Malaysia, but that doesn't mean that I am not aware of it. There was no single day from the start of the campaign that I didn't look for a single article on the net, watching every debate being uploaded on youtube, and asking friends whose the most credible candidate qualified for the position.

I bet for Gordon and Bayani for personal choices since I know how they work. I live in Olongapo for 1 year when my sister stays there who happened to be a wife of a US navy, so I know how to organize the Philippines if Gordon will win. 

Bayani, on the other hand, shows how he clean up manila as an MMDA officer. But people have different opinion and principles really. Recent news but not yet confirm NoyNoy was on the lead and Many Villar was already conceding and congratulate NoyNoy. 

Honestly, I don't like NoyNoy because I know he is not capable of being the next president of our country but it is better to choose him rather that Erap (well this is my own personal opinion choose the lesser evil). Now that NoyNoy is leading and if it happens to be that he will become the next president of the Philippines I just hope each and everyone who voted for him help him become a better president, a better leader and stop blaming each other. 

Because according to Albert Ellis an American psychologist The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny. 

I will not say I just hope the Filipino people will learn from their mistake but rather let us all pray for the betterment of our country and for the betterment of the Filipino people.
