State Failure Part 2
Erap pardoned.
I was gone for a week to facilitate a leadership seminar for Ateneans and I come home to this depressing news. In ASLA we talk about leadership that serves and changes. I can't help but curse the people in the higher-ups for this monstrosity wrongly labeled as politics, governance, and leadership.
It is becoming clearer that the recent bombing may really have been yet another ploy of one of the greatest disgraces my beloved university has produced. This definitely isn't the first time she's done it. But what frustrates me the most is that we feel powerless against this continued and systematic oppression and deception. We have yet to feel the burden of being the ones to get rid of the devils in power and to take charge of our own society.
State failure continues amidst my bickering. My PolSci professor would say that bickering is actually doing something. But I say it's not enough.
More devastating news: My brother failed his subjects in UST. He's transferring to Adamson. The family burden weights heavier on my shoulders. But I don't want it to shape the choices that I make. I don't know what to do.
