431

On the contrary, the plane crash of flight 431 reinforces my belief that I will not be dying soon.

Here's a man who works quietly, yet effective in his endeavors. Nothing bombastic. He is the antithesis of a trapo. He is a Magsaysay awardee after all. And that is not an ad hominem nor non- sequitur. The outpouring support of prayers and the simplicity of their home shows us that there really are honest politicos out there, and despite all the prayers, the vigils, the countless statues of Mary and her permutation- he will not be coming back. As a disinterested person, I think he really is dead. 

Again, we are deprived of a good person who honestly means service to his countrymen. And the fact that prayers are not getting him back is telling that first, prayers are not really a tool unlike genies lamp that grants our wishes; second, that accident do happen to everyone; and third, life is short for a good man.

Thus, we should not be to quick to attribute everything to the divine. Sorry, but to do so, and then imagine all the prayers and all the saints have already been called. Nothing. Frustrating.

To do otherwise, and accept things that ordinarily happens, life goes on, minus frustration, no need asking God why.

UPDATE:

I believe in God. It's just that I am not the type to leave everything to him that would make me appear to be a mere puppet. If ever he is alive, well and good. It would reinforce my beliefs but not necesarrily diminish it if he is indeed dead.

Here's the to hopefuls.

UPDATE#2:

The body has been found. Now what.

Malupit ang diyos? Not really. This happens everyday. It's just that the divine chose not to intervene and raised his body from the bottom of the sea alive. RIP, sir.
