Unfortunately, due to the current economic
hardships besieging our beloved country, so many people become discouraged in
pursuing their dreams and instead let them wither away and die. The situation
and the circumstances around had forced some people to live in disharmony and
they just walk around their world like a carcass that is just following the
masses.
You know, I don’t blame those who have lost
hope and more so, I don’t blame PRRD because everybody can see how sincere he
has been in trying to bring our country to normalcy. But you see, in times of
adversity, when things go wrong, nobody can boast to himself he could still
have that stability in mind while under pressure and continuously under a
looking glass. This is worst when you are the President and people are
expecting so much from you.
Much has been written about stories even in
the Bible where big problems are not solved by big minds but always by small
minds. Few examples are: God used a shepherd Moses to lead the Israelites
during the Exodus; God used David to kill Goliath; God let Jesus be born from a
poor family of Joseph and Mary and be delivered in a barn, and many more.
I always remember that James Bond movie where
Roger Moore was pursued by the bad guys and he jumped into a boat and the motor
doesn’t seem to start no matter how he tried. So, he asked help from the
children swimming nearby. One of the children just turned on the gasoline
passage that was shut off at the time.
For me, our country’s problem does not need a
sophisticated solution coming from Harvard graduates, Military Generals, or
with such credentials as Ph.D., MA, MSc, DSSC, STL, DBL etc. In fact, the
solution is so easy that it’s like turning on the switch of the gasoline
passage that has been placed into off position for a long time like what
happened in the James Bond movie.
