Former President or should I say Revolutionary President Corazon Aquino
passed away at 3:18 am (1918 GMT Friday) after fighting advanced colon cancer.
There are a few people I like in the world of POLITICS, and that includes her.
I saw her 7 years ago when I was still a 3rd year high school student during a mass
among Catholic schools in Cebu to clebrate the month of the rosary.
She wasn't in her trademark yellow dress but on another hue my memory can't remember well. . .
but I think it was red.
She was a simple and humble woman.
She has this calming presence and you can sense it on how she carries herself and interacts with people.
Her death is a great loss for many people and this nation
but her works remain as a true embodient of selfless love and devotion to one's country
which other politicians should take as a sterling epitome.
For the ICON of Freedom and PEACE.
I pary for her soul to rest in peace.
