Hope for all

In the coming years, I hope you will study very hard so that you will have a solid foundation on which to build your future. I may no longer be around to give you my fatherly advice.

Ninoy's letter to Noynoy (Benigno Aquino III), August 25, 1973

All alone by myself

And then when I get tired, I would fall asleep, knowing that tomorrow will be the same.
