vindication

it's a very good feeling when someone agrees with what you say.  moreover so, if what you have said is controversial to most people.  i have been getting unsavory remarks about what i posted about the verdict on the subic rape case.  yet, i didn't flinch for a second.  and what vindicates me is that a particular journalist, well, he's not just a journalist, but someone who is an icon to the oppressed and one of my favorite people because he speaks his mind out, whatever it may be, without fear.  why?  because he can.  the same way that i can, and our common link is freedom of expression.  and he was the one who inspired me to write the same way–no holds barred.

 

you can read ramon tulfo's take on the verdict at this link:  http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/metro/view_article.php?article_id=38632

 

i feel better now, not that pissed anymore.  =)

    hahaha.. i didnt know you were pissed.. 😛
    Anyway, wouldnt it be nice if the same freedom of expression can be exercised in every work place? Speaking your mind about observations and not be taken negatively; asking questions that may challenge and eventually improve??
    sorry to deviate from your source of elation.. your post just got me thinking…Wow.. what a progressive thing that can be… if everything could be talked about without threat to anyone or stunting career growth altogether..
    Anyway (again) back to your post, I am glad you are no longer pissed. We have our own opinions, but have different ways of expressing it.. 🙂
