I am not a supporter nor a detractor. I’m just a humble soul from thousands of miles away, captured by words and hypnotizing cadence. I’m not doing this entry to attract more traffic or to join the worldwide hype, and in fact, I’m not even using the right search engine keywords. I just want to quote this phrase:
… greatness is never a given. It must be earned.
The phrase, among many others, sent chills down my spine. Since first hearing him speak in 2004, there have been many instances that the rhythm and substance of his words awed me.The quote above seemed to just, well, for some reason… hit home.
He inspired a new beginning for a lot of people. I have to admit, the world seems all so fresh now. Pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off? Alright, sir, let’s roll.
I know, right?
The only time I felt the same about our country was when I watched war docus or EDSA 1 videos.
When I heard Obama speak in the 2004 democratic convention, I really thought he could be president. And heck, I was right. LOL

Why does the Survivor Philippines location is on Thailand, we had a lot of ilands here in the Philippines, why should they bring it to Thailand?
You’re referring to Obama, of course?
Oh I’ve been in awe of him since the first time I saw him on Oprah, when he was still a senator.
I wish we could one day feel the same about our own president, too.
