I couldn’t let this Kakampink Crusade pass by without putting in a few words to my blog. This is such a huge undertaking that never happened in our country’s history. Unprecedented, they all say.
Though thousands of writers, bloggers, reporters and newspapers tried to document these happenings; it has become an enormous one that it is quite impossible to pick up all stories told about our experiences and what has transpired in total.
After all what’s been said and done, our friends, the kakampinks; old and new, personal or virtual, have done an overwhelming job to spread the word, to promote and support our ideal future president.
Today as we wait for tomorrow’s election results, we can’t help but entertain a bit of anxiety. But we must realize that we have said what’s needed to be said; done what’s needed to be done. Thousands have been very generous of their resources, their time, their services, their food and drinks.
Many have gone out of their way to set up rally venues, composed a song, choreographed a dance, did house to house campaign, performed flash mobs in busy streets, painted a mural or a placard to express their support to Leni as well as their own personal battle cry. All these, we never expected, yet it grew into a fun movement for a relevant cause.
From the very start of the campaign, we were advised to stay calm, do not argue, do not engage in unpleasant exchange of words; just think positive, post on line only true and positive ideas and do not react on fake news; since there are more important things to do; primarily to explain the right message to those who are still in the dark or to the undecided.
So today, let’s give ourselves a break; know that we didn’t leave any stone unturned. Let us stay calm, pray for divine guidance and intervention so that the good will prevail.
It was such a great opportunity to relate to all of you kakampinks; even though to most was only virtual. I enjoyed the ride and I’ll surely miss it.
