Undying gratitude to YOU.

I'm putting my Yellow Ribbon up in honor of the late President Corazon Aquino.

I just finished watching The Buzz and I can't help but cry the entire time Kris narrated the last 31 days she was with her Mom. It was detailed so I know it was so hard for her to go back and reminisce how everything happened. Every tear she shed, I shed it with her. Yes I do cry a lot especially when things like this happen but this one's different. Our nation just lost a Mother and we're all grieving. How much more do you think Kris is feeling right now that she has lost her own? I felt her pain and I extend my deepest condolences to the Aquino family.

I may have not been able to see how you ran the country and how you were as a President, but having the entire Nation to tell me how good you were is too much already. You have inspired a lot of people and you are truly such an Icon of Democracy. You restored our Nation's democracy and we owe it all to you. You have not only touched the hearts of those people whom you were closest to, but you have touched millions of lives around the world. I salute you, the life you lived, and most especially for being the best President the Philippines ever had. God chose you to be our President during that time to make you His instrument of peace and justice. Your children and apos were very lucky to have you as their Mom and Grandma because you have shown them nothing but pure love and affection. Our country was and still is lucky that we were able to have a Mother who was courageous enough to fight for our freedom and whom we know, who truly loved her countrymen. May God be with you always and may you rest in peace Madam President.

PS: I know you're with Ninoy already and it makes me happy knowing that. Probably the Filipinos are somewhat relieved that though we lost you, you are finally with the man you love and with God of course. :) Your legacy will linger forever!
