He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.

“Reconciliation should be accompanied by justice, otherwise it will not last. While we all hope for peace it shouldn’t be peace at any cost but peace based on principle, on justice.” –Corazon Aquino

 

 http://www.lugaluda.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/former-president-of-the-philippines-cory-aquino-refuses-treatment-for-cancer.jpgMaria Corazon “Cory” Cojuangco Aquino (January 25, 1933 – August 1, 2009) was a President of the Philippines and a world-renowned advocate of democracy, peace, women’s empowerment, and religious piety. She served as the 11th president of the Philippines from 1986 to 1992. She was the first female president of the Philippines and was Asia’s first female president.

I heard the news about her death last Saturday morning when I open the web. It was even headlined. I was really shocked and teary-eyed when I read about it though I already knew how her situation really was. She became the President of the Philippines after the snap election. I was only 2 months old when that happened but it seems like it was yesterday. It was those time when much chaos was rampant. Despite of everything that happened that time I’m still proud that I was able to be part of that historic event.

I don’t know how to say this but I really admire Tita Cory a lot. Her death brought a lot of good memories inspite of how much she suffers. Being confined to the hospital for months is not that easy. I know theses things even though I haven’t tried being confined for months because I have seen people who suffered especially when they undergone chemotherapy. I couldn’t believe how strong her will and determination were. She was really a woman who possessed courage and determination.

Looking at the live television feed earlier while here coffin was being transferred to Manila Cathedral made me realized how good Tita Cory was not only as a President of the Philippines but being a true person to everyone. I can still sense her dignity and her love for God and countrymen.

Tita Cory, wherever you are, you will always be a part of the Filipinos even to the next generation because you didn’t only give us the freedom but you became our inspiration to love the Philippines and God more.
