a letter to the future you.
I know you did not want to have a conversation with me at all but I am glad you did talk to me. it's the 9th of May, 2022. it's the day you pour your everything to this country. Your bravery cannot be topped, you poured everything you could have and even have your relatives treat you inappropriately. I wanted to be mad but I knew you were holding so much pain and exhaustion from those voices but you're bigger. you did what you think was right. I wanted to ask why they were the one you support but it's evident that it's for the best, not just for your family but also for this trampled society. I came across a post a while ago. students were also asking their professor if they should still take law. we knew how much bloodshed happened during his regime and the past administration as well. I tried to be objective about this matter but i just could not do that.
I remember how your voice sounds when I hear you talking about law. and I will give the world anything just for you to achieve your dreams. I know how much effort you put during this campaign, this election. I'm glad how you get to go to places just do your work. souls deprived of justice are proud of you. I'm proud of you, and I'm sure you are too. I will continue voicing out my opinion. I will continue writing the truth. I will not stop. we're both journalists. I never read any of your articles though (private yarn), but I adore every word you deliver. how amazed I am whenyou told me back then that you joined multiple events, and now, you're enhancing yours skills and talent more. I need protect you, you're strong- but I see how you also need a shoulder to lean on, a pillow to rest your thoughts with. we are neither friends nor lovers but I will protect you from this brewing regime, even if it means that I have to give my life.
Mahal na mahal kita, mahal natin ang bayang ito, future lawyer .
Ito ay inaalay para sa totoong tao, humihinga at nangangarap sa puntong ito.
