Sunday Thanksgiving: A Victorious Journey


When we worked together for a common cause—a strategic operation to improve our town's agricultural economy and livelihood, a mission we successfully accomplished—we achieved a milestone. It was a thousand miles, yet a fulfilled journey. 

It all started in 1998 when a Divine calling for public service was initiated. My Father was chosen and called to serve the people. Despite the initial resistance and protest due to fear, he remained steadfast, and we all eventually agreed to listen to the divine call. 

As a three-termer legislator, my Father showed courage and perseverance. He may have had his fair share of struggles but he stood up and fought for the common good. 
With the values of integrity, honesty, and compassion he upheld and the principles of equality and justice he instilled, he was never frightened of those in higher authority. 

In 2007, after his 3rd term of public service, he returned to business and enjoyed farming as a hobby, a source of joy and serenity. 

In 2013, at 61, he was back in public service and became the head of our town's Office of Senior Citizen Affairs. 
He advocated for the rights and benefits of the elderly in collaboration with the Department of Social Welfare and Development. 

On May 14, 2016, after 9 years of last public service as a municipal councilor, he decided to return to answer his constituents' calls. On May 15, a day after the midterm election, he was declared for another seat. This return to active service is a testament to his unwavering commitment to the public's interest. 

On May 13, 2019, during the Midterm election, my father was declared a winner for his second term. He will continue his public service, speak out, and fight for the rights of his constituents. He will continue to advocate for our town's agricultural economy and livelihood and stand up for the welfare of the public transportation sector—his major committee chairmanship. 


My father is forever thankful for his constituents and everyone who supported him on his political journey. He deeply appreciates your support and it is because of you that his love of public service remains even when he is not in the position. He speaks loudly about his advocacy for general assistance in the community. He is leaving a legacy for his love of society. He is forever grateful to God for his victory.
