Let Justice be Served for the Vizcondes

As of 4:00pm today, December 14, 2010; Accused killer of the Vizconde family massacre has been acquitted of the crime he has been accused of and served time for fifteen years. I was surprised when I heard the news this afternoon and immediately thought of Mr. Lauro Vizconde and how he must feel in the midst of this. My heart goes out to Mr. Vizconde who taught that justice has been served after his family was brutally murdered; at the same time I can't also help but think if Hubert Webb is really innocent and how our justice system screwed up by sending an innocent man to prison.

The saying that crime does not pay may be true here in the Philippines; the criminal justice system still has a lot of flaws I guess. I wouldn't be surprised if some hotshots are able to manipulate the law in their favor. I think this is one of the reasons why I don't trust authorities here in my country because the officials them selves who runs our government are corrupt. It is my prayer that whoever really murdered the Vizconde family will have the courage to turn him self in and admit his guilt. As for the people claims to uphold the law, I hope that they would truly get their act together and prosecute the bad guys and let justice be served. No one, absolutely No one should be above the law.

The true reason for Christmas

It's that time of year again. A time of year where friends, employees and families gather together in an almost month long of gift giving and merry making. What is the reason why we party anyway? Do we ever stop and ask our selves what is the reason behind for celebrating the season? Are we the kind of people that just party because we want to and everybody else is doing it? If we are indeed like this then I feel sad for all of us. Most of us don't even remember the true reason why we are celebrating Christmas and it's significance in the lives of mankind.


More than two thousand years ago, a little boy was born in a town called  Bethlehem. This boy was Jesus Christ, the lamb of God. In the midst of all the merry making , let us stop and ponder upon the true reason for the season.. Christmas is not about a satanic creation called santa claus and frosty the snowman. Christmas is all about Jesus and Jesus alone.
