Tulad ni Hesus na hindi nangiming harapin ang nasa kapangyarihan upang ipahayag ang mabuting balita sa mga mahihirap, paglaya sa mga bihag at palayain ang mga inaapi. (Lukas 4:18) Buhay man ang naging kapalit.
Deliberate or not, the glaring error of some partisan critics of the Left is to polemicize with a distorted sense of history and improper reading of the local political landscape.
Ang tunay na pagbangon mula sa isang krisis kailanman ay hindi maaaring gawin ng may pagkakanya-kanya. Tulad ng pagharap natin sa pandemya, hindi maaaring kumain at uminom ang iba habang patuloy ang pagdurusa ang marami.

Huwag sanang isiping ito’y sanaysay ng pagrereklamo. Kailangan lang isakonteksto ang mga bagay na kailangang isakripisyo dahil sa pagkalunod sa mga trabaho’t gawain.
