naivety

by now, i guess everyone knows what happened in Maguindanao.

I am still shocked -- more than from the shock by what happened, really -- how naive i am. I still cannot understand, I cannot comprehend, how anyone can be so heartless, so barbaric, as to even think of hurting anyone -- let alone kill in broad daylight -- for power and politics.

i have always believed that people who make life hell for someone are insecure and sad. they make other people's lives difficult -- whether deliberately or not -- because they want to let go of their inadequacies to those who they think have what they don't.

and i guess the masterminds of this atrocity is, to put it in simple terms, are really insecure and lead sad sad lives. they have nothing else to be proud of save for their money and clout. and it appears they know that they can't hold on it forever, so they're willing to do ANYTHING just to make sure they cling to it as long as they can.

pathetic. pathetic!!!!

HAH!

welcome!

chances are, you are a member or a visitor of www.phbar.org. because that will be the only reason for you to get wind of this blog.

i created this site purely for the purpose of having myself included in the phbar's blogroll. why? because the idea of being included is very exciting to me. exciting, yet scary. because the other blogs are owned by some of the heavyweights and soon-to-be heavyweights of the legal profession.

so effectively, i took this as a challenge -- to finally have a blog where i write something sensible.

but exclude this entry for the meantime. i'll start writing sensibly tomorrow :)
