A man of honor, he claims so, shot himself dead right at the love spot, the heart. Why will a Former Philippine AFP Chief of Staff, whose courage and bravery is beyond any doubt commit such well known cowardice act of suicide? It brings confusion to any ordinary mind set, a soldier must be brave.He directed his heart to bravely face death. Is that courage? Only he knows. Yes, he was into a controversy over allegations of corruption in the organization he once led with vigor and dedication. Is it because he'd done great deeds but was not spared of the ailing media who loves hot issues no matter how gravely this would affect the most the dignity of any human alive? Is he the innocent victim caught in crossfire with freedom and democracy in action as mentioned in newspapers these days?
"Heartpal" or love pal that I am, I'd like to believe that "Angie" as many call him committed this dastardly act on his life not because he lost his mind, not because he ran out of courage, not because he wants to ran away from all the mess surrounding him, but because of one universal truth that is "LOVE"
Whether he was guilty or not he acted as he did because:
he Loved his family tremendously and he wants to spare them from all the pains this controversy brings
he Loved his enemies, his enemies who willed where he was into before his death, and preferred to suffer
instead ( the whistle blowers and those higher than him who masterminded the corruption)
he Loved and values integrity and dignity that he did not want to strip people he knew are culpable.
he loved his mother, and like a child who needs a mother's love when in pain, he chose to follow her
he loved peace, he left his war zone on Earth and chose to join his SAVIOR to strip him off from all his
earthly pains and anxieties
For the religious who have other views regarding God's concept of his manner of death, we have but one common question in mind, will GOD forgive Angie?
God is aware that at times we reach some lowest points in our lives and our weakest sense surfaces automatically without liking it. The military man, is not spared of this. I still believe that the sin of forgetting ones sense is a human weakness God breathed into our system so that we will have moments of discernment on how much He loves us. I hope that for as long as Angie asked God for forgiveness and was able to see how much GOD loves him before his last breath, God's forgiveness will always prevail. God understands us even in the lowest points in our lives. Please post your comments.
