here i am, bitching and moaning about either
a) having too many rackets (or too little),
b) lining up to get a japanese transit visa; or
c) not having enough time to do yoga after work, and then
this morning i saw something that just totally shut me up.
a blind man was trying to cross the street. he couldn't figure out the sidewalk (walang handicapped access choo choo). when he finally got on it, he couldn't tell if he could cross na (wala namang audio ang ating stoplights--kung may stoplight man).
i wanted to jump out of walter and morph into a trained and cute yellow lab and help him.
i hope he got to where he needed to go.
i hope we all do.

I have always complained about the inefficiency and incompetency of Ortigas' roads, sidewalks and... well, overall layout. My years of playing SIM City and Caesar have made me a pretty good planner. I can forgive a lot of things, but watching a blind man struggle unecessarily or seeing a wheelchair-bound man use the main road because there are no handicap lane access points is UNFORGIVABLE. Someone get me the email address of Mayor Eusebio.
