It’s so hard to set some expectations from others, to be disappointed time and time again, so I guess it’s up to me now. Well I’m no stranger to making my own decisions and hard work, so I guess it’s gonna be one big long fight.  Aja! =)

Lesser Evil? We’re still settling for mediocrity even when we choose the bad?

The picture says it all.

On May 10, 2010 Philippines will choose to fly towards true progress.

Around 8 p.m. earlier tonight, I was armed with a gun going around inside the house while waiting for hubby to come home after I texted him someone was just right outside our main door knocking, and then went knocking from the outside also at the window of our bedroom.   Only me, the 2 yayas, and the kids were at home, hubby was in a meeting.  Hubby quickly got home and already made the rounds and saw nothing or no one.  Our neighbor told him that a few meters from our house at the corner street somebody has just been robbed of his cellphone at knifepoint.  I had the feeling it was the same person/s who swooped down on a victim at random after the failed attempt at our house.

This wasn’t the first time we encountered an intruder.  Because of this incident, hubby gave me a crash course on how to hold, load, cock, and fire a gun…all under 5 minutes.

I really do not like guns and I’ve always been against my husband’s keeping a gun inside the house.  It has alway been a topic of discussion between us and I only relented after a previous attempted break-in in the house we previously rented.  After tonight’s incident, I think I would have to agree with hubby.

I’ve never been as afraid as I was earlier tonight.  I am beginning to think this place is not safe enough for my family.
