    A Tribute to Dr. Jose Rizal

    Dr. Jose P. Rizal is one of the most remarkable Filipino heroes in the history. He is
    not only admired for possessing intellectual brilliance but for also taking a stand and
    resisting the Spanish colonial government. In his famous novels, Noli Me Tangere and El
    Filibusterismo, he antagonized the Spanish friars and the government for their abusive use
    of power. He wants to open the eyes of his fellow Filipinos to the evil and corrupt deeds of
    the friars and Spaniards who are mistreating them in their own land. Although this costs
    him his life, he is willing to do so for the sake of freeing his country and countrymen to
    the oppressive forces of the Spaniards. His fervor and desire for unity inspires us to love
    and appreciate our nation.

    There are many lessons and realizations we can get from Rizal's life. He made us
    realized that bloodbath is not necessary to attain freedom for he used his expertise in
    writing to convince his fellowmen to seek justice, thus he proved that pen is mightier than
    a sword.

    In his saying "Ang kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan", he made us realized that we, the
    youth, have a huge responsibility on our shoulders to be good citizens of our nation and
    make a contribution, although it may not be as grand as what Rizal has contributed, by
    partaking in our respective roles in making the country progressive in the sense that our
    contributions in the society as well as our collective intellect do help for each and every
    people’s benefit where in the end, nobody loses.

    At the end of the day, it is beneficial to learn about Dr. Jose P. Rizal and all of his
    works, achievements and personal life where it is worth reflective in my life as a student
    in such a case that it gives me a reason to strive more, work more, motivate more and
    most of all, inspire more. Overall, his life serves as a beacon to each and every Filipinos to
    do the best of their efforts for the country’s development as well as for educating the
    people where his legacy lives on.

    Indeed, Dr. Jose Rizal deserved to be called a National hero.
