I know not why, but I find Noynoy Aquino's decision to run rather...disheartening. It feels wrong for him to run for the presidential office, even if he actually does have better political credentials for it than his mother did. I have no idea why, but it just seems like a bad, bad idea.
Also:
I would consider my employers no better than thugs, goons, and thieves for what they've done and will likely continue to do. Then again, I cannot do that in clear conscience. I wouldn't want to insult the thugs, goons, and thieves of the world, do I?
And though I had slain a thousand foes less one,
The thousandth knife found my liver;
The thousandth enemy said to me,
'Now you shall die,
Now none shall know.'
And the fool, looking down, believed this,
Not seeing, above his shoulders, the naked stars,
Each one remembering.
--John M. Ford, The Final Reflection
