A CURVE ON THE
STRAIGHT PATH

One thing I have

never contemplated
about, since a new
administration took
place is the possibility of
hearing once again
unbearable issues
involving the
government.
During the 2010
Presidential Elections
Campaign, his
excellency, Benigno
Aquino III truly made a
mark on the Filipino
nation through his
tagline, the Daang
Matuwid, making him
elected on the office of
the Prsident with a
landslide victory, giving
every Filipino who
believed in his advocacy
a wave of hope for him
to curb corruption and
government anomalies
and to finally eliminate
the unpleasant image of
the countrys political
system.
In his early years
of sit on the top of the
ruling body, there is no
doubt that Aquinos fight
against corruption
started at the previous
Arroyo administration.
Statistics also showed
that there is indeed an
improvement on the
state of our economy.
According to them,
unemployment rate was
reduced, paving more
job opportunities to
every Filipino. GNP is
also reported to have an
increase during his
leadership.
But in the mid of
his term, curves on his
straight path were
suddenly becoming

visible on the eyes of

the nation. Making all of
us think if his SONAs
even addressed the real
state of the nation.
Loopholes just
became very obvious
that the presidents
platform on his Daang
Matuwid was ruined.
The first loophole
discovered was on the
controversial
Development
Acceleration Program
(DAP), replacing the
Priority Disbursement
Acceleration Fund
(PDAF), reported
unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court, and was
then is concluded to be
an avenue for the
President to accomplish
its simple corruption
scheme.
And now another
major issue the Aquino
administration is facing
is the January 24
Mamasapano surge
where an abrupt number
of PNP SAF commandos
died.
After conducting
several senate hearings
regarding the incidents,
names of different
official arouse, notably
the president himself as
the one who broke the
chain of command.
At present, the
issue on the
Mamasapano Surge
continues to progress for
a clear understanding on
who is really to be
blamed.

Rampant
government related
issues in the country
nowadays becomes very
alarming. It has been a
major problem for us to
face since its the
governmentments
credibility to take control
over the countrys
problem that is being
tested in times like this.
But it seems like
its really the
government that should
fix itself first.

Power Amidst Pain

Life without
problems is compared to
a classroom without a
teacher- youll never
learn something.
If theres one
thing that guaranteed in
life, it is the fact that
were all going to face
that point in our lives
when well experience a
situation that will define
our endurance.
There was
this young girl who once
believed in happy ever
after- perhaps influenced
by fairy tales. She was
raised by her parents
picturing a future
without any burdens to
face, just scenarios that
portrays a worry free life
together with her
parents.
Days passed,
the young girls being
only child ended as a
little boy added to the
family, making them
more optimistic in facing

their everyday lives

together.
Their life
continued as a family
comparable to those
read in fairy tales,
novels, etc.- only a
picture of a family that
sticks together.
Both children
slowly reach puberty
stage while enjoying
their elementary days in
a barangay elementary
school where their
parents enrolled them.
Theyve been consistent
excelling students in the
school making their
parents very proud of
the way they have
raised their childrentruly a blessing to be
considered.
But as hands
of time passed by, life
slowly offers series of
challenges in life anyone
could never
contemplate.
Living in this
growing world seems to
become a little hard for
the family. Its not just
the love that matters
now. Thinking practically
towards the different
aspects in life is the best
way in order to sustain
life.
At first were
just simple
misunderstandings,
slowly becoming
arguments that turned
out to frequent quarrels,
which eventually led to
an inevitable fall of a
wonderful marriage.

It was very
difficult on the part of
both children to face
such situation- just
watching their parents
go on separate ways
without anything to with
it.
The young
girl just cant completely
comprehend what
exactly was the reason
why theyre suddenly
put into that kind of
situation when all that
surrounded their family
was love and bliss. She
just cant afford to see
their family fall apart.
She never
knew the true problem
until she reached the
age of 14.
The
unpleasant part of her
knowing the truth is that
no one ever dared to
explain to her the real
happenings; she just
discovered it by herself.
All of the things she
found out were just very
unacceptable.
At first, she
didnt let the fact sink in
to her senses for she
always believed on the
chance that someday,
somehow, their family
will be reunited.
The girl
thought of ways for her
parents to consider
reconciling.
The worst
thing she ever tried to
do is rebel. She thought
that keeping the
attention of her parents
on her acts of rebel

caused by the situation

will make her parents fix
their problems. But then
on second thought she
considered that as the
dumbest idea shell ever
do.
A problem will
never be solved by
creating another
problem.
She was left
with nothing but to just
accept the fact that
theyll never be together
and that even though
the situation is painful
she must move on with
life.
Moving on
with life has been very
difficult for me. Ive
been through a lot of
hard situation as I grew
old with the absence of
a father, seeing my
mother striving to earn a
living for me and my
brother, and to endure
a life with a broken
family. But as a guiding
principle in life, these
hardships just made me
boost the best in me,
despite all of the pain, I
must keep on moving on
with life, nothing should
be a hindrance for me in
pursuing my dreams.
Instead of taking the
pain as a factor for my
downfall, Ill take these
circumstances as a
motivation for me to be
better.
