We live in a time of uncertainty.
Last Tuesday's bombing of a bus shattered the "tranquility" of Edsa of what it is and perhaps what it is supposed to be.
The shattering sound of the explosion will still reverberate in the days to come. It is so strong that it has called our attention again to the same old problem of the milieux that we are living in. It was just like the day after the Rizal Day LRT bombing. Why could it be repeated again? What minds is working to do such dastardly and cowardly acts?
Indeed, those who foment terror have been successful in putting us to the edge of our chairs.
Of course we have not fell from our chairs.
We live in our time where the bill board signs says, "These time are unbearable times. We live in a troubled and troubling moments. It is you that has something to do about it.
You government can make just this much given their gargantuan capacity and resources.
And perhaps we always feel we are still short changed.
Sadly we will always remain dis-empowered.
Why are we dis-empowered? Because we have surrendered such power to our government.
