President Corazon Cojuangco Aquino 1933-2009

I'm not a martial law baby and also a people power baby. Even when Cory started being the 1st Woman President of Asia, I'm still at mom's womb that year of 1989. I had my consciousness knowing that Fidel V. Ramos is our President in the years of 1995 and so on. I have been aware since then about what really happened from the Marcos regime, Senator Benigno Aquino's Assasination that led to Edsa People Power 1 Revolution. Those topics were include at our textbooks in Sibika at Kultura, Hekasi, Kasaysayan ng Pilipinas, Asian History and World History. Documentaries, biographies and Newspaper clippings were everywhere. Questions are still out pouring who killed Ninoy. Somehow the Aquinos were quiet about the topic. They know somethings that might trigger who really killed Ninoy. But things are better left unsaid. After 26 years. things changed but Cory's faith to all of us Filipinos remained the same. I dont know about her a lot but as i have observed, she never stopped wanting, praying and begging for the entire betterment of our country. She's from a famous, wealthy and renown family of Cojuangco. Married to a rookie politician from Tarlac and gave birth to 5 children (4 girls and a boy). The 2 Aquino kids were famous because of the world they have chosen: Politics and Show business. Yesterday, i watched Kris Aquino's Interview. It was a dismal day because of a typhoon. Cory Aquino succumbed to colon cancer after fighting for almost a year plus. 3:18am at Makati Med. Her wake held first at La Salle Greenhills were in the famous counting of snap election held 2 decades ago. Everybody was decisive about this and some were hoping for miracle for Cory's state. But it is God's will muttered to all of us. Cory was in pain, hence she's been unfazed and ready for everything. She died peacefully and didnt show any careworn from having the disease. Kris Aquino told "the 1 month story" of Cory's last fight to cancer. Its hard that you cant do anything for the one you loved. She misses her mom who witnessed her mishaps and mayhem during her career. She said that im the prodigal daughter and she thinks that she done bad things that a daughter could possibly do to her mother. She will miss her texts, her support and her unconditional love. Her mom indeed is a very strong person, woman and mother. A very good boss to her employees. Years counting for those who worked for them and felt like a real family. Unselfish, witty and humble. During her presidency, she had the most clean record of all time. She's been very outreaching, approachable and never seen smugness. Wreaking was never in her vocabulary. Havoc! - that's one of the things she wanted to disappear here on earth. Hope everybody is ready for a change. a change for the better or rather a change for our best! Thank you for all the moral values, belief and loved you have shown us. Thank you President Cory! And just want to share this, she really looked like my Lola.(Grandma, Nana). She has the features of Guevaras from Marikina. White complexion as well as the chinese eyes. We came from the spanish and chinese ancestors.
