MY PRIVATE EYES AND EARS

I WAS A MISSIONARY AND A CHURCH PLANTER FOR SO MANY YEARS AND I UNDERSTAND EXACTLY THE BEAUTY OF PERSONAL AND HOUSE TO HOUSE  VISITATION. THIS PICTURE IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF THE BEAUTY OF PERSONAL VISITATION. ONE AFTERNOON, WHILE THIS WOMAN IS BUSY IN WASHING THEIR CLOTHES, AN UNEXPECTED VISITOR IN THE PERSON OF COUNCILOR RAMON "TOTO" MEDALLA ARRIVES THAT CHANGE ENTIRELY THE COMPLEXION OF HER FACE. THE MEETING SUDDENLY SPARKS A MOMENT OF FUN AND EXCITEMENT BETWEEN THE WOMAN AND COUNCILOR TOTO MEDALLA. THOUGH THE COUNCILOR WAS A WELL KNOWN PERSONALITY IN HIS AREA DUE TO HIS COUNTLESS NUMBER OF PROGRAMS WHICH BENEFITED THE MAJORITY OF HIS CONSTITUENTS. BUT MOST PROBABLY, THIS IS THE FIRST CLOSE ENCOUNTER OF THIS WOMAN WITH COUNCILOR TOTO MEDALLA. I DO NOT KNOW EXACTLY ABOUT THEIR CONVERSATION THAT MAKES THIS WOMAN HAPPY SAME THING WITH THE GOOD COUNCILOR.  BUT IF I WAS IN THE WOMAN'S SHOES, I CONSIDER IT AS AN HONOR WHEN SOMEONE F...

ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED MOMENTS DURING ANY POLITICAL RALLIES AND CAUCUSES IS THE THROWING OF FREEBIES TO THE CROWD BY THE POLITICAL CANDIDATES.  THROWING OF FREEBIES  IS A SORT OF ICE BREAKER TO A LONG AND REPETITIVE SPEECHES OF ANY POLITICAL CANDIDATES THAT ARE MOSTLY CHARACTERIZED BY EITHER EMPTY PROMISES OR BRAGGING ABOUT THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS. I CONSIDER FREEBIES AS AN IMPORTANT PART OF ANY POLITICAL ACTIVITIES. FOR ME IT IS LIKE AN INCENTIVES OR REWARDS FOR COMING TO THE EVENT AND FOR EXERTING AN EFFORT TO HEAR AND LISTEN TO THEIR PLATFORMS OF GOVERNMENT.  THOUGH CATCHING A FREEBIES IS NOT AN EASY TASKS. YOU ARE LUCKY ENOUGH IF YOU CATCH ONE. BUT THE EXCITEMENT AND AND THE FUN REMAINS IN THEIR HEART FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME.  DEFINITELY FREEBIES INCREASES THE NUMBER OF THE AUDIENCE. AND THE LACK OF IT WILL DECREASE IT.  SO, AS AN SPECTATOR, I HOPE TO SEE MORE FREEBIES OR GIVEAWAYS WILL BE GIVEN DURING POLITI...

  A WOMAN IS A PACIFIST THE FUTURE IS FEMALE THIS IS THE SLOGAN OF THE QUEZON CITY'S WOMEN AS THE PREMIER CITY CELEBRATES THE INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S MONTH HEADED BY THE OFFICE OF VICE MAYOR JOY BELMONTE. WE SHOULD NOT MISINTERPRET THIS SLOGAN FOR THE FUTURE IS FEMALE DOES NOT MEAN FEMALE OVER MALE. A WOMAN IS A SUFFRAGIST A WOMAN IS A DEFENDER OF CIVIC AND POLITICAL RIGHTS. A WOMAN IS A HUMAN RIGHT ADVOCATE A WOMAN IS AGAINST ANY FORM OF DISCRIMINATION. A WOMAN IS MORALLY AND RELIGIOUS UPRIGHT

The Quezon City Vice Mayor slot is anybody's race. Like the rest of the voters I have already my own preferences when it comes to whom shall I vote for Vice Mayor but like you it can be changed as the election process is still going on. One thing that amazes me is when a wife of a politician speaks in behalf of her husband. We need to listen with them with all ears because we can learn something from them especially when they introduced their husband. This is the first time I saw Mrs. Joy Sotto in public. Mrs. Joy Sotto is the lovely wife of Councilor Gian Sotto of district 3, one of the leading candidate for Vice Mayor. In Visayan accent she tells the crowd that she believes her husband can be a good Vice Mayor once elected. Then she enumerated the reason why Gian Sotto shall be elected as Vice Mayor of Quezon City, 1.   He is a good and loving husband. 2,   He prioritize his family' 3.   Sunday is dedicated for God and Family...
