the good and the real reason

we do that all the time. decisions involve good and real reasons. the good is for everyone to hear. the phrase “in good faith” comes out of it. the real is what our inner selves hear.

why did i left bulan in the 1st place? i did forget why. manila had blurred my recollection. my struggles in the city hid the bitter reason for my flight. now that i am back they are slowly resurfacing again.

the good reason why i left was because i was looking for a bigger and better opportunities. manila could provide that.

the real reason was i don’t wanna be eaten up by the system.

government teaching posts are held by persons in power. it does not matter how academically an applicant excels. the important thing is “who do you know?”. that was the condition of the times when i decided to leave.

4 years of absence. was there a change?

the other day, i chanced to talk with a school administrator and she posed the very same old question. “why those who she thinks are deserving get knocked off by those whose abilities are questionable?”

your guess is as good as mine.
