Hindi mawala sa aking gunita larawang bumantad sa balita tila isang punyal idinarak tagos pagkakasaksak baon na baon hanggang buto ang kirot at sakit nitong kasamaan at kasalaulaan doon sa France.
Pilit nilang ipinaliwanag paglapastangan sa Huling Hapunan hanggang kami pa ang hatulan ng kamangmangan at kawalan ng pakialam sa mga kakaiba ang kasarian; abot-abot kanilang pagpapaliwanag ngunit nabaon lamang sila sa balon ng kadiliman.
Heto ngayon ang larawan inyong pagmasdan: walang kinakailangang pagpapaliwanag sapagkat hindi kailanman magliliwanag ang kadiliman dahil ang maliwanag na katotohanan tanging babae at lalake lamang ang nilalang.
Sakali mang mayroon pumailang ang gawi ng katauhan o oryentasyon maliwanag sa katawan dalawa lamang ang kasarian kahit palitan nasa labas ang nasa loob kailanman hindi manglilinlang.
Tiyak marami silang sagot at mga paliwanag kaya namang tila baga itong Olympics ngayon ay hindi na tagisan ng husay at galing sa larangan ng pangangatawan kungdi ng isipan at paninindigan;
tanging hiling ko lang, muling pagmasdan itong larawan ano inyong nararamdaman? sa boksing pa na sukdalan ang karahasan doon pa matatagpuan natitirang liwanag at katinuan ng makabagong sangkatauhan?

Thus says the Lord: Stand in the court of the house of the Lord and speak to the people… whatever I command you, tell them, and omit nothing (Jeremiah 26:2).
Omit nothing?
What a tall order from You,
God our Father;
and You know how much
I have tried to omit nothing
of your words when I spoke:
always, I am the first
to be shaken and affected!
Many times, people do not
see nor realize that when
we speak your words,
omitting nothing,
we are always the first to be affected
because your words cleanse
and purify us, committing us more
to You and your mission;
therefore, help us to "enflesh"
your words always in our witnessing
and omit nothing as You wished.
In this time when people clearly omit many of your very words like "male and female You created them" as well as teachings, making gender more of a preference than of nature and part of your grand design, grant us more perseverance and charity when we speak and omit nothing of your words and teachings deemed by wokes and liberals as not being cultured and inclusive; let us remember that even Jesus your Son was reviled and crucified not only then but until now by those who consider themselves as learned and politically correct, refusing to accept your words and teachings and very Self. Amen.
