what's wrong with the world today? make that philippines, on a local scale...
turn on the tv and sad, devastating, draining news are thrown at you...
the last ultra stampede victim was buried the other day. the agony for those left behind does not end there though.families of those buried alive in the leyte mudslide are losing hope that there is still life beneath the monstrous dirt.can't imagine how an entire village was engulfed in mud... and they were helpless.another mud/landslide in zamboanga... illegal loggers blamed... loggers gain at the expense of human life... not too much life... only 1,800+ just ditched in dirt. and some more when other mountains collapse soon.mayon volcano shows signs that it will errupt some time soon.students of st. andrew's school rushed to hospital for mercury poisoning.magdalo group threatens malacaƱang of a bloody event on friday. residents near malacaƱang advised to vacate the area by friday.makes me think...
~ my rants are trivial.
~ there are bigger issues in the world than my sighs and "problems"... or are they problems at all?
~ there are other people with worse burdens than my so called personal dilemmas.
~ so when i feel like complaining, i will swallow them instead.
~ my private circle is a mere dot amidst the vast matters of the universe that ACTUALLY MATTER.
~ and IT'S NOT ALWAYS ABOUT ME.
