"Tatag ng Wikang Filipino, Lakas ng Pagka-Pilipino"

As we celebrate the “Buwan ng Wika”, we are also rejoicing the annual happiness since that this month symbolizes the significance of our Filipino language. Being a true and loyal citizen of the Philippines, we revel this momentous August with the theme, “Tatag ng Wikang Filipino, Lakas ng Pagka-Pilipino.”

Our dialect as Filipinos indicates what we are and who we are. Ours is very different from other nations outside our zone of obligations. If we say different, we mean “poles apart”. We are the only people with this kind of manner of speaking. And we should be very pleased that God has given us this treasure to be delighted from, that we could use as the best weapon if someone makes us down.

Philippines stands as a country that lacks on experience, intelligence despite of having the richest countryside and wildlife. Folks don’t know how to apply this wealth to have the most comfortable life we could ever have. The only hope in becoming what we dream of in the coming years is to be the best citizen and servant of our own beloved country.

Brave fellowmen of the past fought for us to have our own way of communication. Manuel L. Quezon, the one we could consider as our very father, is the one who declared Filipino our own. Now that we have achieved what they wanted before, we should face the duties we are tasked to come across with in order for the next coming generations to be involved with this life- the life no one outside the walls of the Pearl of the Orient Seas could ever understand.

We are one. We are unique, exceptional. We have everything and we can never ask for anything. We just have to take care of the cycle our forefathers have started.
