as usual, i have the download speed of a dial-up connection when it comes to these things. i still don't know how much i am affected by her death, but i cried when her daughter kris broke down on national television. my mom would often remind me that during the edsa revolution, she and my dad were there. separately. and neither one of them knew that the other one was there too. if edsa had been bombed that day, i would've been an orphan. apparently, the pilot who had direct orders couldn't do it because looking down, he saw a cross. thank God for people power and that didn't happen.being a scholastican, i think tita cory is ora et labora personified. pray and work. a woman with strong faith who served the Filipino people.
RIP Tita Cory. Filipinos are forever grateful for your gift of democracy. I admire you for your courage, your kindness and most especially your faith. I am sure you are happy now with your husband, Ninoy. Thank you to you both.
