Preacher in a Cab

Hopping in a cab going to Client the other day, I told the driver to bring me to Rockwell.

He nodded in reply.

Then, the guy suddently morphed into a pastor.

He said...

"Boss, Iglesia ka ba?" I said "Ni Kristo? Hindi po. He continued, "Ba't di ka mag Iglesya? Oo. Welcome naman lahat. Punta ka sa araw ng pagsamba, huwebes at sabado. Magsuri ka. Magsaliksik. At maghikayat. Tingnan mo kung magugustuhan mo. Dito talaga ang tunay na pamamahayag. Katoliko ka ba? Ako dati. Pero dito ko nakita ang katotohanan at buhay."

(By the way, you can hear more preachings and praisings on the radio)

Driver continues: Pero mag polo ka ha at pants... Subukan mo makinig sa radyo sa 954 AM para lalo mong malaman. Sa July 27, anniversary namin. Kaya, punta ka.

My only thoughts...."God, I hope my Client approves the two radio commercials that we have revised a thousand times."

Taxi drivers are the best. I should know, niligawan ako dati ng isa.
