THE HERO OF ALL HEROES


It’s so heartwarming to see thousands of professionals – a doctor who can save a life, a lawyer who can defend a life, a soldier who can give us a peaceful life…. an engineer, an accountant, an architect and so on. These persons are considered as heroes for they offer selfless service to humankind. But behind the success of these individuals are great mentors, the teachers!
Students will be under a teacher for almost 2 decades. Starting from kinder to college, we will be dealing with different teachers having various personalities. Their whole lives are dedicated in making the world a better place to live in. They want to help humanity and serve wholeheartedly.
They teach not only lessons in books but also lessons in real life. They teach us how to be happy when we feel so down. They scold and punish us whenever we make mistakes. They hold the light of enlightenment and guide us through the road of success. With them, we get to know the values that a person should possess. They let us know what is right and wrong. They let us appreciate the things and the people around us. They defined to us the true meaning of life.
Whoever you are, whatever you do, and whatever profession you have, you should always bear in mind that teachers answer to one calling---SERVICE! They are not only teachers; they are the heroes of all heroes!
                                         
I salute all the teachers for their outstanding performances, undying love and most of all for the knowledge they fed in my mind. They influenced me a lot. Because of them, I am what I am.




TEACHER: A FRIEND, A SISTER, A MOTHER

Whenever I’m alone and sad
You’re always there to make me glad
Whenever darkness fills my sight
You’re always there to be my light.

Whenever I get too much wild
You correct and treat me as your own child
When things are getting wrong
You teach me how to be strong.

Your daily lessons are my reasons
To live well and be a better person
Your pieces of advice are my inspiration
To reach all my ambitions.

I don’t know how to thank you
For all the things that you do
All I know is, wherever I go
I will always remember you.

I just want you to know
That I’m thankful for helping me grow
You’re a friend, a sister, a mother
And my hero forever.

In my life, you’ll forever be a part.
Thank you for showing me the right path
Teacher, you’ll always be in my heart
I love you no matter what.

My Non-Fictional Hero: WonderMOM


Having a cape, being able to fly, carrying the heaviest things and beating the villains of the world are some of the hallmarks of a superhero. Having extraordinary power that can execute exceptional things can captivate and magnetize the interest of an individual. But the question is, do these characteristics make someone a real hero?
When I was still young, i believed that there were superheroes. It was imposed in my mind that super heroes were real. When I think of a superhero, Spiderman, Batman, or Wonderwoman usually pops in my mind. But as days passed by, I was awakened with the fact that those superheroes who have superpowers were not real and the real heroes are the ordinary people who make something special out of the ordinary things they have. They are the real heroes living in the real world with different specialties.
I grew up appreciating and admiring a real life hero, my mom. She has no superpowers like the superheroes in the fantastic world but she has a good heart that definitely makes her a hero. She has done too much for me. She lets me experience a comfortable life. She gives me everything more than what I deserve. I may stumble sometimes but she helps me to stand up. She makes me laugh and be happy when I feel so down. She lets me cry for me to learn. She constantly reminds me to have faith in God. She's always there to guide me through the road of success.
No words can express how thankful I am for having a mother like her and no amount of money can compensate all the sacrifices she has done. I yearned to be a hero someday neither with cape nor with superpowers. I wanna be just like my mom, simple and ordinary. She's my hero and I am her ultimate fan.

Ugly Mommy. Joke! IloveyouMother! <3

But because of the pervasive use of it, the Filipino language was not lost or destroyed, rather it became stronger. As years passed by, different dialects such as Ilocano, Panggasinense, Waray, Capampangan and many more sprang up in various parts of the Philippines.
