prisoners of our own history

i am taking PI 100 this summer.
i took it because someone told me that it is better to take PI during the summer because it means less works, less readings, less presentations, less hassles.
i took it because i can.
but then i did not take it because i like it.
i am never a fan of rizal.
never was and never will be.
but it doesn't mean that i don't respect him, i do.
and i do acknowledge his works and the "inspirations" he gave to his fellow heroes.
but then why him?
why worship him?
but then i don't wanna take this problem any further because the last time i raised this issue we debated to death. i don't want to experience that again.
anyway, aside from PI i am also taking up Social Science 2.
now this is a different story.
i enjoy Sosc2 so much.
i love criticizing political systems and the society.
i love thinking about the possible solutions for our own country.
and i was surprised to realize that we can do numerous actions to get ourselves out of this mess.
it's just that we are not that totally sincere to implement them.
because though noble our original intention was, greed always gets in the way of our triumph.
greed.
how i loath this word.
if there's one thing i want to free ourselves with its not pain. because we need pain to feel happiness. for one cannot exist without the other.
i would erase greed in the face of the earth instead.
this way, maybe we could attain the everyday wish of every individual here who still believes in cliches.
World Peace.
