Leaders should show good example

One time I was talking with a barangay chairman. I asked him why he keeps on running for the top barangay position.

That’s fine if they are truly deserving. But you should not boast or brag about your accomplishment. Jesus Christ says, “He who humbles himself shall be exalted… He who exalts himself shall be humbled.”The “Titanic” was the biggest ship ever built during its time. The owners bragged it was so big and fitted with a double steel plate that not even God could sink it.

There are parents who are really charitable and exemplary. Let me quote an inspiring email letter which I received from a couple. It was in response to my appeal for help in my Manila Bulletin column for some poor COVID patients. The couple responded, saying: “My husband and I celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary last July.“In these hard times, we decided not to celebrate it lavishly. We went to church and asked a priest to bless us.
