June 12, 1898 when our flag was first raised and this is also the day we attained our independence from the Americans who colonized us. And we are now on the 121st celebration of independence day. Andres Bonifacio, Apolinario Mabini, Emilio Aguinaldo, these are some heroes who risked their lives just to gain our freedom.
I think that this 121st
celebration of independence signifies respect, love, and unity. It represents
respect, because even if time has passed, we still remember the sacrifices and
the risks they undergo. We still cherish the blood, sweat, and tears that they
gave and we must not forget this. It signifies love, this love is the love for
our country. Even after many challenges and difficulties that came in our
lives, we never gave up, instead we still fought for our country, fight for our
freedom and our own rights. Lastly, it portrays unity, after many challenges,
we are still together, we still stand tall together, and we, as one, fights
together.
So on this 121st celebration,
let us commemorate all the immolation, hardships, and lives they gave just to
achieve our freedom. I will always be proud that I am a Filipino, because I am
resilient and Filipino is resilient.
