When Old Wounds are Touched

If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them. Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever. ~The Crow, written by James O'Barr, David J. Schow, and John Shirley, 1994

We'll I guess we haven't move on, not just yet, or is it because I'm really a cry baby. I appreciate the fact that some people do care and are willing to help with Jo's case. God bless them and God bless our family too especially Nanay and Tatay. Its been almost a year since my brother's death and we haven't heard a positive note from the authorities. Our family have "moved on" with our lives but the pain remains and this pain would always remind us to pursue our quest for justice, no matter what it takes.

For those who would want to know what I'm talking about feel free to drop by Joross' site.

April came and Toti also had a blast on his birthday held at the Lachica’s den. Children played pabitin, basagang palayok and musical chair among others. It was also warm celebration of my mother-in-law’s birthday and thanksgiving for my youngest sister

Did you know that the month of September is National Peace Consciousness Month in the Philippines? September was declared such under Proclamation No.675 signed on 20 July 2004 by then President Gloria Macapaga-Arroyo. The Presidential Proclamation was issued to "instill greater consciousness and undertanding among the Filipino people on the comprehensive peace process to strengthen and sustain institutional and popular support for and participation in this effort, as well as in the global movement spearheaded by the United Nations to promote a Culture of peace based on nonviolence, respect for fundamental rights and freedoms, tolerance, understanding and solidarity.
