Corona Defense Team holds Press Conference to announce a "bombshell"

In Club Filipino (Greenhills, San Juan, MetroManila Philippines) is still holding a press conference as I write this blog. The "bombshell" of a news: A reliable source tells the Defense Team that Executive Secretary Ochoa is calling as many Senator-Judges to defy the order of the Supreme Court to give Temporary Restraining Order" to open the dollar accounts of the Chief Justice. What teaching moment can we get from this fresh twist? That no less than our President is not interested to give due process and whatever and whoever is concerned, this piece of information is very dangerous and we pray that Pinoy should do something fast before things get out of hand. Remember, the Filipinos are worth dying for, whether they are in favor of the Administration or not.  Another teaching moment: Usually one prepares for a hearing but the more you view the Impeachment Trial, the more you observe that the Prosecution team shows how unprepared they are. Perhaps in the bigger scheme of things, they know there is a plan B like "phone the senator-judges" and use their affiliation to the utmost and make sure they impeach the Chief Justice.

President Pinoy, we respect your Office. High hopes have been given to your new administration. However, we cannot help but comment on the way you can be very harsh with your comments. Imagine, say unsavory remarks to someone who is with you in the same gathering? You are a President now. You are the President of every Filipino, whether this Filipino voted for you or not.

The Filipinos can only take so much. In the world of twitter and blog, a joint force can be done to oust you, why not? If not in the real sense, at least in the hearts of Filipinos who have only respect to Ninoy and Cory, your parents. Cory never ran after the murderers of your father even if she could have done so.
 "Hinay hinay" lang Presidente . . . (Slow down President . . .) 

P.S. One of the Defense team members shared: 100 Million pesos per senator might be released to do just this - to defy the TRO given by the Supreme Court not to allow the opening of the dollar accounts of the Chief Justice.

Let us pray that all this talk from the Defense Team will be made clearer tomorrow when the Impeachment Trial resume . Let us pray for Senator Juan Ponce Enrile to "walk his talk" and take the initiative to clarify this "bombshell".



 

Death is a teaching moment that mothers should tell their children about. . .

There was one time when I attended a vigil in one rural area. the father was inside the coffin.  It was without preparation of how to react that overcame me for one of the little boys approached the coffin and within hesitation knocked the glass and told the father: "Why are you still inside there when it is already morning? Join us". How would you react if you were there? To this day I could not recall how I managed to go through the scenario and remained sane. Months later the mother visited us and stayed for some nights with us. Would you believe a rare bird circled our house and went around the room where the mother, then turned widow stayed. the following day she went home and decided not to transfer in the big city.

The aforementioned scene led me to suggest to mothers to tell their children about death. When my husband died, the children were already in the elementary, high school and college so it was not so difficult to accept death. How about those in very early years, 3-7 years old - how do we prepare them? Please share how you did it for I would not know from experience. . .

However, death is very meaningful if dealt with in the context of faith. It must be difficult if we just talk of death as the end of one's existence. Seen in the eyes of a believer, death is a gateway to a life which has no end.
