cory aquino

today was the funeral of our late president cory aquino. you could see posters and banners of cory aquino everywhere. everyone was in yellow and the whole nation was mourning her loss. she was an inspiration to the country, and the country owes a lot to her. personally, i don't know much about cory aquino except the fact that she led the country before and that she's the mother of TV personality kris aquino. during her funeral though, i became aware of the hundreds and millions of people who supported, idolized, and loved the late president. she was a hero to our country. and as her coffin was being paraded (i don't know if that's the correct term or not) to manila memorial, she brought unity to her countrymen once more. through their shouts of "tuloy ang laban" to chanting out her name, the nation became united again.
