DUTERTE: He Whom is Flawed yet Influential

 



Dear Mr. President,

            I am now writing this for you to know that I, a student in 10th grade of Ilocos Sur National High School is thankful for what you have done to improve our country, the Philippines, during your term in presidency. You may not have been the perfect President to all, but all that matters is that you did your best for the sake of the people and the country. I know it is painful to accept the fact that you cannot please all the netizens above everything you have done. I do believe from the depths of my heart in your sincerity of truly loving our country and protecting the people from harm’s way. You have inspired me that despite all the trouble, problems and tasks that the country and people has given you in charge of, you still remain composed. You have taught me to ignore the people whom judge you due to the mistakes that you didn’t mean in doing so and also gave me the courage and confidence to never let my guard down at all times and stand for the truth.

 

            Although, I have one request for this matter has been bothering me for some time. I heard that the Senators have been planning to adjust the criminal responsibility of children to 12 years old. I just want to say that I am hoping you won’t sign the petition. I do have the idea to let the children live freely but in the condition to discipline them from committing any crime and guide them to the right path. Why not help the children instead of punishing them without knowing the truth behind their story of why they commit these crimes. It should be the parents whom shall be punished if their child or children have committed a crime for it is the responsibility of the parent to guide their children to. And of course, I am assuming that the Senators whom are planning to do this have children, so I hope they consider it since most of   them are parents and they should know what is best for their child.               

                                                                                        

Yours Truly, 

Sharalindsay N. Cancio

A Brighter Tomorrow Resides Beyond the Sorrow

               Every child is special. Childhood is known to be an important part of a person’s life. All of us have been through that timeline and many more will. It is a time wherein you get to be innocent and have fun without a care in the world. Life as a child was like unicorns and rainbows. Although not all of the children get the chance to be “free” and “innocent” nor have a life filled with “unicorns and rainbows”. Many even had to set their dreams aside to work and earn money for a living, just to help their family. This wasn’t supposed to happen for we all know that a child has their right to learn and not to work nor earn.                     A child needs to be educated, sheltered, fed, cared for and loved. It is their right and a parents’ responsibility to do so. To serve and provide for a child is a must, or I should say a duty to fulfill. We all know that a child depe...

Another Chapter of My Life Unfolds

Image
            “New Year, New Me”. I can’t say that this year, there will be a new me. This is because there will never be a new me but I guarantee you, that there will definitely be an upgraded version of me! Doesn’t that sound better? Its like a game, wherein you get to be you and level up in every fight, or I should say, “chapter” in your life.               I am more than sure that this year will be another rough ride for us and that’s no lie. Life isn’t fair and we know that. But despite of that saying, we still ought to live our lives to its outmost best. Easier said than done, am I right? but what’s more important is that we get to see another year. We get to enjoy our life. Despite the cruelty, we still find ways to address positivity to the world and restore the faith in humanity.               For ...

Amidst This Crisis, Let The Essence of Christmas Prosper

Image
               “It’s the most wonderful time of the year~”, that’s what that one song said. It is obvious that this is another Christmas Celebration during an ongoing pandemic wherein people aren’t that fond of. Although, that doesn’t stop us on giving off positive vibes during this once a year of a season. We all know that the Christmas season is nothing new to us, but due to the pandemic, it has become quite a hassle. This is a challenge for all of us to overcome.   As of my opinion, this Christmas season, I have a feeling that it won’t be so bad and I have high hopes for that. I mean, the reason we celebrate such an event is because it’s the birthday of Papa Jesus and we are looking forward to another year of glimmer. I get that this year was a rough ride for the most of us. We had our ups and downs, we had our outmost joyous and even the darkest days of our lives. Words cannot describe how much we’ve been through this year, am ...
