Philippine Election Results
I am going to let this all out, so I can move forward.
I am only heart-broken about the election results because I truly care for this country and believed in those I voted for, but I have now ask God for grace, healing and serenity to accept and support the elected. I also pray the same for each and every Filipino, so we can all move forward in rebuilding this nation. After all, we have one vision, one hope and one goal -- a reformed and progressive Philippines.
I encourage every one to be kind to one another, especially to those who have been defeated. Be sensitive. Be humble. Allow tears. Allow mourning. Allow healing.
However, this is not saying, the winners should not celebrate. Go rejoice. But please, please be kind. In time, we will join you in victory because in the end, we are one nation. We need one another.
I am keeping my faith in this country and the elected leaders.
“Be gracious in defeat, be gracious in victory.”
Here is also a salute to all the women who have fought hard and well in this male-dominated elections. You have given us a voice. I am moved by your bravery, humility and character. Thank you for fighting the good fight.
P.S. I am crying for You, Sen. Grace Poe. You are handling this better than I do. You have all my respect. Mabuhay ka Sen. Grace Poe. Salamat sa iyong laban.
God bless the Philippines
