And it's really indelible...


Election day had come and passed. Some canvassing has culminated; Some are just to tally the last 10 ballots. Some candidates are way far ahead, leading their way to victory; Some are just not so fortunate to have at least 5 votes...

Yesterday, I have voted for the candidates I want to be elected and seated. I don't know if the soon-to-be-pronounced winners will remain as righteous and principled as they seem to be in their political ads, campaigns and symposiums (let's just pray for that...). It's politics... Ooopps! I forgot a qualifier for that noun... should be dirty politics!

Given that, I am still hopeful... a bit cynical but still with high hopes that someday, our country will turn full circle and recreate itself anew for the achievement of the long-been desires of the Filipino people, especially of the oppressed. May the integrity of upcoming new set of officers, both local and national, be indelible... persistent and steadfast, not to their political agenda/party and self-interest, but to the people they serve. Let them be indelible... as indelible as the ink blotched on my finger.
