Cocooned
by Carlo G. Soldevilla
Written on June 26, 2018


Cocooned inside the shell of Davao taxi , you never ever dreamed to become the Philippine President

You offered yourself to hostage takers as an exchange to the mother and child so they would be set free—-You immersed yourself in the painting of Michelangelo – It’s evident.

As the Jewish saying goes: “He who saves one life saves the whole world”. Two (2) lives you saved and what you did was a selfless act.

It’s metaphorically dying when you took that risk and by doing so, you have found the meaning of what it means to live.
