Beyond Election

 

AFTER EVERY ELECTION, A NEW HISTORY BEGINS.

The election time has left a lot of PROMISES to be FULLFILLED. 

It has left a lot of ISSUES to be CLARIFIED. 

It has left a lot of WORK to be DONE. 

Will we Filipinos share the same PASSION and CONVICTION that our favored candidates have exuded during the campaign period? 

Will we also DIVE with them in the POOL OF PROBLEMS that they are tasked to solve or remedy for us?

There is POWER in the PEOPLE.  We live in a democracy where we create a government OF the people, BY the people and FOR the people.  As such, we, as a people PUT leaders to POWER.  Therefore, a government leader is a SERVANT of the people and NOT a MASTER of the people. 

We owe NO ALLEGIANCE to our leaders; we owe them the RESPECT for their service.

We have every RIGHT to demand GOOD GOVERNANCE from people whom we have OPTED to lead. 

We also have the RESPONSIBILITY of sharing the BURDEN of BAD GOVERNANCE or the PERKS of GOOD GOVERNANCE.  We should not be passive stakeholders in shaping the destiny of our country.  Let us eradicate the “DOLE-OUT” mentality because we are not beggars. We WORK for LIFE. 

Good government is always a “WE” NOT an “I”.  As ONE NATION, we JOURNEY TOGETHER.

I HOPE that we will voluntarily offer our TIME, TALENT and RESOURCES in helping others who are living in distress to grow into better and productive citizens.

I HOPE that PROMISES uttered during campaign days will be TRANSLATED to WORK, FOOD and SECURITY that can PROVIDE for a DECENT, DIGNIFIED and HUMANE LIFE.
