The Man From La Mancha

Have any of us dreamed the impossible dream? The Philippine Presidential Election is fast approaching. But then, was there any change that happened in the country? That makes me simply wonder, did people ever think change has to come from within? And if we want change, did we ever try doing anything about it?

Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino has died saying "The Filipino is worth dying for." while his wife, the late President Corazon "Cory" Aquino has said "The Filipino is worth living for." These statements make me think, are we Filipino people willing to do our part in helping our country improve? Are we willing to take the chance of REALLY exercising our rights? Or we would simply obey those who are empowered by us? How far are we willing to take?

Read the story of Don Quixote and one would know, though st times it is considered as insanity, one has to dream the impossible dream and one has to make a move pertaining this dream.
