Heroism

This Year celebrates the 79th Day of Valor (Araw ng Kagitingan) – Bataan Day which commemorates the sacrifices and giving honor to all the veterans who gave their life for the country.

 The significance of the Battle for Bataan in 1942 need not to be lost to our youth or to the present generation and to the succeeding generations. Love for country and admiration for heroes is the very essential in creating and building a strong country.

 The efforts and sacrifice of our soldiers to claim the victory against odds and the role of the townspeople in giving their relief to the captive heroes will add more meaning to big words like patriotism, freedom, courage and resilience in celebrating Araw ng Kagitingan every year.

 Truly that the Day of Valor – Araw ng Kagitingan is not only as a normal Philippine Holiday, this is the time that we need to remember, commemorate, and give honor the heroes and veterans during the World War II, who gave and sacrifice their life and their blood for the Valor of the Country.

 We are all in the middle of a pandemic. People are losing their lives, some fortunately recovered. Hard workers sacrificing their lives such as doctors, nurses, polices, teachers and other front liners. Poor ones suffering from poverty but still working just to provide their own family’s needs.

Several months here in the Philippines, the Department of Education and other private schools decided to open and continue schooling.

Our school wondered whether they are going to implement online learning or just pray that the pandemic would go away. Since we are in a public school, they chose both online and printed modular learnings, both rich and poor ones are benefited. The problem is, how about the ones that are not gifted with inte...

Hey, Earthquake!

  At any time an earthquake might strike us without any warning. No single individual could stop an inevitable disaster. All we could do is to prevent and have a knowledge about preparedness and vigilance.   National Simultaneous Earthquake Drill by the government is always conducted every year. As I have noticed, only few people is taking the activity seriously. Is the "duck, cover and hold" enough for them to save their lives? How would they act in case an earthquake would hit them? I guess, have a chit-chat with a companion first rather than being vigilant.  It is really important to participate, even in a simple preparedness plan or at least have a knowledge on how to act and respond to disasters. I suggest to have a cooperation and not to be a burden, of course, excluding the ones with disabilities and illnesses.

 Nothing has changed, actually. Is it necessary to change ourselves yearly? Or people are just used to changing and improving theirselves every New Year?   I always fail my New Year's Resolutions and I do not know if I am already contented with who I am as of the moment. For now, I only want to make my grades better than last year, hone my hobbies; especially in drawing, remove any unwanted traits that shows toxicity and have a good-looking appearance.  We were bombarded by disasters and a pandemic that lead us to lockdown, affecting us in all aspects last year, so wishing it would be gone soon is not a bother also. In spite of that happenings, we became close and fortunately unaffected by the virus so that is a new goal for this year, not to be affected by it.  And hopefully, I can past through this pressure and challenges this year, and reconcile with our happy lives back then, which has a low percentage, apparently.
