OPINION KO LANG...just putting my 2 cents in

[Mars84]

Just leave them alone na lang. Rico's soul will never rest in peace as long as this goes on. You'll never know the truth no matter how many magazines and newspapers you read because only Claudine and Rico know the truth.

Let's say she and Rico did break up before he died. Does that automatically take away her right to grieve? They were together for 4 YEARS! Have any of you guys been in a relationship that lasted that long?

If you have managed to convince yourself that Claudine is a liar, of course you're predisposed to thinking she faking her tears every time you see her cry. Just think before you judge her naman. Don't forget, she's still a 22 year-old girl who's just trying to make some sense out of all of this. I don't think what you're doing is fair for her or Rico.

Please give her the benefit of a doubt...if not for her sake, then do it for Rico's. His life is over now. He shouldn't have to worry about the petty things that people who are alive still have to worry about. Let him find peace. Don't you guys think he deserves it?

yeah, i think you're right. i myself am guilty for judging her. pero now, parang bakit nga ba? i think it all started when that poison letter came out. and now that i've read it all over again, parang it doesn't make sense na rin eh. we 're just giving too much credit sa author nun. biro mo, almost everybody naniwala. kaya kung sino man yun, it's either laki ng bilib mo sa sarili mo or talagang matakot ka na. hello, karma lang katapat niyan!

what i really don't understand is bakit pinagdidiinan na napaka-fake ni claudine. doesn't she has the right to grieve? if she opted to let the whole world see it, right niya rin yun. ikaw ba naman batuhin ng katakot-takot na intriga, tatahimik ka pa rin. i dunno, and maybe i'll never understand. but this all will pass i'm sure. i heard medyo nag-subside na yung "tampo" ng Yans.

Yeah, you're right, Leeann. Whoever believes that stupid e-mail is giving the author of it too much credit.

A lot of people here think they're not gullible. They keep on saying, "Stop being so fake. You're not fooling anyone, Claudine." Pero if you look at the bigger picture, they were all fooled by that little message they found in their inbox. At least, si Claudine, she has the guts to show her face to the public and explain her side of the story. She doesn't have to do this, but she does, anyway. Whoever wrote that e-mail is acting like a big coward. If you believe your version of the story is true, why the heck would you be afraid to even include your name in the e-mail? Why won't you speak up infront of everybody and tell them what you believe is true?

To those who criticize Claudine...what do you want her to do? No matter where she places herself, someone is bound to rip her apart. When she talks, you immediately assume she's lying to save her butt. However, when she keeps her mouth shut, you immediately assume she's hiding something. When she cries, you say it's out of guilt. When she doesn't shed tears, you say she's being insensitive.

Give her a break.

Judge not...
for we do not know the heart and soul of the person we condemn.

Condemn not...
for we are not a witness to the events that we think we know everything about.

For in judging and condemning, we are attracting to ourselves the same pitiful situation of the person we condemn. This is inevitable so that we would know the pain of the person we cruelly so condemned.

We were presented a great opportunity to reflect that we can be recalled by our Maker anytime. Let us not waste this opportunity by judging and condemning. Instead, let us see the goodness in everyone. Let us be kind to those people who suffer. Life is just a flash and before we know it, it is over.

I'm really glad that there are people na katulad ko I really don't want people judging this artistas becaude they don't know them anyway. People act as if they knew Claudine or Rico and all they know is the hearsayings about this and that. The problem is that if someone hear about this person's doing some bad deed (pero di pa sure kung totoo ) some people would easily believe sa tsismis and sasabihin rin sa ibang tao and yung iba minsan exagerated. And syempre yung iba na may halo nang exageration sasabihin rin sa mas marami pang iba. Yep that's chismis allright. Hope that we pinoys could lessen gossips because karma rin yan kung nagkataon tatalbog rin sa inyo yan.

Don't worry, Peaches15. There are still those people who won't easily jump into conclusions.
