Thursday, November 01, 2007 Talk back: Reconciliation By J. Michael O. Lecias Argao, Cebu and United States of America
MAY we truly reach the point of our goal to reconcile with one another amidst the granting of pardon to former president Joseph Estrada.
May we learn to forgive those people who have wronged us and forget the mistakes that we might have committed in our lives.
"Let us settle with the past, engage with the present and believe in the future."
Sometimes, it is difficult and even hard to extend our hands to make a gesture of reconciliation, but if we truly step forward to make it happen, impossibilities become easy to deal with.
We need to pray that President Arroyo's move to grant executive clemency to Erap would bring authentic peace and love in whatever areas of political and social life of our country Philippines.
We can't afford that much to bring our country to further division and political bickering.
May God bless us all and enlighten our politicians.
