Dear Pnoy,

Please meet DW, my son. He came to know you from all the commercials you aired last campaign season. Now everytime he sees you, he would shout  “NoyNoy!!” and would do the Laban sign. Sometimes he would even call you when he does a roll call of the people in our house. Para ka ng kasama namin sa bahay.

I think it’s cool that my kid knows his president. You are his president PNoy.  I hope that my son grows up knowing that his president was honorable, honest and gave Pinoys a president they could finally trust.

Today is your SONA, you enumerated all the ills and anomalies that the nation inherited from PGMA’s government. If there’s anything to thank PGMA for it’s for setting the bar so low. But we need to move on and we need to pull ourselves up and out from the trenches.  Dear PNoy, you enumerated so many reasons why we’re all downtrodden, you gave us a glimpse of your government’s plans and you reminded us Pinoys of our duty:

Tungkulin po ng bawat Pilipino na tutukan ang mga pinunong tayo rin naman ang nagluklok sa puwesto. Humakbang mula sa pakikialam tungo sa pakikilahok. Dahil ang nakikialam, walang-hanggan ang reklamo. Ang nakikilahok, nakikibahagi sa solusyon.

Honestly, I felt challenged and I felt hopeful. I never felt this positive after a SONA and for that salamat, PNoy.
