In the heart of every Filipino, Dr. Jose Rizal is remembered with deep respect and pride.

As we commemorate his birth, we reflect on the life of a man who fought against foreign rule, leaving behind lasting lessons. He was not just a hero, but also a doctor, intellectual, patriot, physician, and man of letters and words who was an inspiration to the Philippine nationalist movement. He played a significant role in the Philippines' struggle for independence from Spanish colonial rule in the late 19th century.

Every year on June 19th, the birthday of an important figure in Philippine history is being celebrated. Dr. Jose Rizal was born in 1861 in Calamba, Laguna to Francisco Mercado and Teodora Alonzo during a period when the Philippines was under Spanish rule. He grew up during a difficult time, but despite the challenges, he pursued education vigorously. His hunger for knowledge led him abroad, where he gained insights that shaped his views on patriotism and fairness.

He studied medicine and arts in Europe, where he soon dedicated himself to reforming Spanish rule in the Philippines, although he never explicitly advocated for Philippine independence. Jose Rizal didn't directly advocate for the Philippines to gain independence from Spain. Instead, he focused on improving society through education and addressing the issues under Spanish rule in his novels. His ideas contributed to spark the movement that eventually led to Philippine independence.

Rizal is also known for his two famous novels, "Noli Me Tangere" and "El Filibusterismo," which depicted the unfair treatment of the Spanish rulers toward the Filipinos. His novels inspired many Filipinos to contemplate about their own rights and to stand up against oppression. Because of his ideas and writings, Rizal was imprisoned and later executed by the Spanish rulers in 1896. His death further fueled people's determination to fight for freedom. Although Rizal did not live to see the Philippines become independent, his courage and bravery inspired others to continue fighting for freedom.

On this special day, Filipinos celebrate the birthday of Dr. Jose Rizal with ceremonies, parades, talks, and performances, honoring his enduring legacy. His life underscores the importance of knowledge, bravery, and love for our country, teaching us that change begins by standing against injustice and pursuing knowledge. As we commemorate Rizal's birthday each year, we reflect on his profound impact on Filipino history and his unwavering commitment to justice and education. His influence, evident in his writings and advocacy for social reform, continues to inspire our ongoing struggle for freedom and equality. Let us remember Rizal's courage, intellect, and deep patriotism, reaffirming our dedication to a future where his values guide our nation towards progress and fairness for all.

𝐏𝐚𝐠𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐠 𝐊𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐚𝐧: 𝐏𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐚 𝐬𝐚 𝐀𝐫𝐚𝐰 𝐧𝐠 𝐊𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐥𝐚𝐧

Ipinagdiriwang ngayong araw ang isa sa pinaka-makasaysayang okasyon sa Pilipinas, ang Araw ng Kalayaan. Ang araw na ito ay isang mahalaga at makabuluhang araw sa kasaysayan ng Pilipinas, sapagkat nagbibigay ito ng pagkakataon upang gunitain natin ang katapangan at pagsasakripisyo ng ating mga ninuno na lumaban upang makamit ang ating kalayaan mula sa kolonyal sa pamumuno ng Espanya.

Napasailalim ang mga Pilipino sa pamumuno ng Espanya sa loob ng mahigit tatlong siglo. Ang pakikibaka para sa kalayaan ng Pilipinas sa matagal na pahanon ay puno ng dugo at pawis. Noong 1896 lamang sumiklab ang Rebolusyong Pilipino na pinangunahan ni Andres Bonifacio at Emilio Aguinaldo. Ang rebolusyong ito ay nagresulta sa deklarasyon ng kalayaan ng Pilipinas noong Hunyo 12, 1898, na ginanap sa Kawit, Cavite. Sa seremonyang ito ay opisyal na iwinagayway ang pambansang watawat ng Pilipinas, at tinugtog ang pambansang awit na "Lupang Hinirang". Sa araw na ito ay naging ganap na malaya ang bansa mula sa paniniil ng mga dayuhan.

Ating gunitain ang katapangan na ipinakita ng ating mga bayani at mga ninunong mamamayang Pilipino. Huwag nating biguin ang kanilang sakripisyo at mga buhay na ibinigay para sa lupang sinilangan. Sa bawat tibok ng ating puso, itaguyod natin ang kalayaan at karangalan bilang isang mamamayan ng ating Inang Bayan, sapagkat tayo ang tagapagtanggol ng ating kasarinlan.

Ngayong darating na April Fool's Day, mangyaring makiramdam, maging alisto, at maging sensitibo sa mga bagay na hindi dapat ginagawang biro. Iwasang gawing topiko nang katatawanan ang mga bagay na dapat ituring na seryosong paksa tulad ng;

✓ "pranks" sa delivery drivers
✓ biro tungkol sa kamatayan
✓ birong makaka apekto sa hanapbuhay at pinagkakakitaan ng ibang tao
✓ sensitibong paksa (pregnancy, cheating, malubhang karamdaman)
✓ pag "trigger" ng mga kinakatakutan ng isang tao

Kung mayroon man tayong magagawa upang makatulong sa mga nangangailangan, simulan natin ito sa pagrespeto sa kani-kanilang sariling buhay. Tandaan, na ang mga "pranks" at biro ay dapat na hindi nakakapinsala, na tinitiyak na lahat ng karamay ay nasisiyahan at walang anumang negatibong kahihinatnan. Isulong natin ang kabaitan at paggalang sa iba sa ating mga aksyon. 🫡

Huwag nating pairalin ang pagsabay sa uso, kung ang kapalit nito ay kapakanan ng buhay ng isang tao.
