Last In, First Out

"Resist,Resound,Respond
FOR CHANGE!"

“Holding a pen of integrity, together we shall stand.
Blot the sheet of future with wise choice in carte blanche.
The endeavor of creating change is up to you now.
Should you consider the future race or
Should you choose the unwise one?”

Few months to go, I will turn eighteen and I will exercise my right of suffrage as cited in the Philippine Constitution. I still have a year to think of a better choice before the 2010 presidential election.

I doubt if I could cast a good vote then, but as I listen to the rumored electoral candidates with resounding sound trying to persuade their constituents. I know that the country of Juan Dela Cruz will be deceive forever if I cast a ballot with the same mistake committed by many.

Choosing who will lead the country is hard. A wrong choice will result to negative impact to our country. Thus, I am afraid to face the transformation of becoming a real Filipino. All I know, we should take it by heart if not we better take it never. If Filipino’s lie to elect a leader of integrity or will and heart. I am sure that our country will shine no matter the crises. I stand that a leader elected is true leader and respectful. A leader of plan is a leader of achievement.

The crises and problems caused by a bad leadership in the Government are the lessons for Filipino’s should not forget. History can be made by electing a leader who has dignity will achieve excellence and above all, a leader who will serve by heart.

I remembered, when our senior president in Legion of Mary chose me as one of the participants in Pinoy Voter’s Academy it is a training for all Filipino voter’s which are organized by Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible voting (PPCRV), Simbahang Lingkod ng Bayan (SLB) and San Jose Seminary, Ateneo De Manila University. This is the first time I understand that we should be serious and responsible enough by electing a leader which can cause our country into worst or better situation. After that day I promised to myself that if I will turn eighteen, I will vote for a “leader that has the commitment to do what the country’s need to achieve no matter how hard it is.

He must also be concerned about other people. He must have the personality to command, respect and humility to accept mistake, admit that he was wrong and does take anything on a very personal basis. Lastly and mostly important He should have a BRAVEHEART which will serve as his shield during the dark days of his leadership, source of strength and weapon to fight the evil elements that come his way.

We should not make another mistake this time, or else we will be drowned forever. Let us practice our right as Filipinos, together let us vote for the right candidate!

“As you write your candidate on the sheet please think to the hungry masses starving for a change that is the only way we can do. Drench your pen in the ink of truth therefore you can have a choice with good fruit.”
