John 15:13: There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.Most blogs that I visited today featured the indiscrimate ravages of Typhoon Ondoy. Of all the many reports and stories that were written, one that struck me the most is the story of a teenager who tried to save people and ended up losing his own life.
His name is Muelmar Magallanes, an 18-year old construction worker from Manila. (Story sources: Flippin' in Singapore and UK's Daily Mail).
Muelmar is, for me, a fitting example of Pinoy's inner heroism especially during calamities like this.
To bayaning Muelmar and his family, my prayers.
