Sen. Leila M. de Lima's Handwritten Note
Dispatch from Crame No. 37 (3 / 23 / 17 - 8:10 p.m.)

Chocolates and books (novels, prayer books and even coloring books) are the top presents I receive from my visitors on a daily basis.

And I appreciate them tremendously.

Personal notes and messages from people I know and don't know (total strangers) bring so much joy to me as they are very uplifting.

Indeed, the time I spend for reading, prayerful reflections and mental calisthenics has doubled, if not tripled, in detention. I also have more time now to ensure my physical fitness thru regular exercise.

In this light, I consider my present forced circumstance a blessing...

Thank you Lord!

LEILA DE LIMA
