Pinoy Mega Influencer Jack Logan Reacts to “Bagong Kotse” Lady

“Bawal kasi masangkot sa bangaan kapag luma ang kotse,” the commentary content creator turned filmmaker joked in his reaction video to the “bagong kotse” viral post. Last April 6, a middle-aged woman was caught on cam trying to speed off in her newly bought Hyundai Tucson after allegedly hitting an Isuzu Crosswind 2017 model. When the original poster Maricar Enriquez and her male companion was able to catch up to the female driver, her reasoning was, “Kuya, ayaw kita kausap. Luma kotse mo.”

As of writing, Jack Logan’s post around 6 o’clock has already amassed 47,000 views. It is not surprising that the altercation struck a chord in him since he experienced being belittled by people despite his stature, because of his lazy eye, which caused visual impairment since he was 3 years old.

Prior to his “bagong kotse” reaction, the internet personality had a sentimental post titled “Kwentong Bulag” which as 1,800 reacts as of writing. It detailed his experience last April 7 when he availed the service of a blind massage therapist at a mall by the kiosks. Jack Logan gave a heads up to the 20-year-old lad to avoid his eyes since they have just been operated on two years ago.

“Naku, parehas din pala tayo ng kaso. Sa akin kasi, nag collapse na yung retina ko,” replied the young man. As the mega influencer was enjoying how the tension in his muscles was easing up, he was able to strike up a conversation with other blind massage therapists. Each had a sad and unique tale as to how their visual malady came about.

“Nadulas ako sa lababo, Sir. Tumama sa kanto yung mukha ko kaya lumubog yung isang mata ko. May bakal na nga ito sa loob.”

“Nabugbog ako ng mga adik sa Marikina. Pinag initan nila yung mga mata ko.”

“Kagaya rin ng sa’yo, Sir, collapse na yung dalawang retina ko. Buti ka pa may natirang isa. Ingatan mo na po yan.”

Jack Logan realized that despite of the heartaches he experienced in the past because people resort to ad hominem when they run out of arguments to throw at him, that his suffering was nothing compared to what these folks experienced. This drove him to tears. At the same time, he felt accepted and understood by this people. “Pero yun yung point na feeling ko, nasa iisang sirkulo ako. Belong ako. Kaisa ako. Hindi ako naiiba. Pare-parehas kami,” he posted.

He ended his story with a very valuable lesson etched in his heart and soul:

“Nabawasan man ang lamig sa likod ko ay nakaramdam ako ng init dahil sa unang pagkakataon ay iisa kami ng kulay ng mga kasama ko. Hindi nila pinili maging bulag para lakarin ang tadhanang hindi sigurado. Pero pinili nilang maging mulat sa buhay upang harapin ang mundong punong-puno ng mapanghusgang tao.
Sumakay ako sa kotse at sandaling humagulgol para unti-unting isink-in sa puso ko ang nangyari ngayong araw na pinuno ng tadhana ng kulay. Hindi ko akalaing sa gitna ng mall, sa siksikan ng tao, makakahanap ako ng katahimikan. Isang tahimik pero malalim na sandali ng pagkakaintindihan, pagmamalasakit, at pagkakapantay-pantay.”
