2016 Graduation Message

“History has proven that people are successful, not because of brilliance, but because of persistence and desire.” (John Maxwell)

       But what shall we desire? on what endeavor shall we preserve to become successful?  Years ago, you stepped on the lovely playground of your school.  You entered the universal field of education.

           Some of you will graduating or moving up but where does the learning road end? How do we reach the glorious learning outcomes?

           Some say that Education is life.  However, learning is actually perpetual.

          For graduating learners, your journey in the elementary level of education has indeed ended.  For Junior High School completeres, you need to pass through Senior High School.  Another journey awaits you.

          Look back and remember your past blessings, not merely failures.  Do not dwell on the past mistakes but learn from them.  Do not forget the people who helped you like your families and friends.  Do not forget your opponents who motivated you to become better.  Maintain your simple way of living and your original principles in life.  Many graduates who turned out to be leaders have forgotten their original good values and principles in life anchored on correct Faith in God.  Follow them not.

          Continue to move forward beyond K to 12.  Do not stagnate.  Do not fear the future.  The only thing that one can fear is fear itself.  Fear does not exist.  It’s not real.  It only exists in the mind.  I heard from a preacher that Fear is a False Evidence Appearing Real. Move based on you plan, vision, mission, and strategic objectives and you shall succeed.

           Every bad move has a corresponding bad consequence and every good move leads to success.  Choose the best move and you will be on top and there is no other way for you but go up still.  Choosing starts now.  Your decision has a bearing to your future. Soar high like eagles and experience the glorious outcome of learning.  Help improve the world.  Start from yourself.

          Meanwhile, Celebrate!  Celebrating together with others is the penultimate stage of victory but celebrating together with the Lord is the consummation of success, the ultimate stage of victory.

          With God and K to 12 at your side, progress is imminent!

          Surely, goodness and mercies shall follow you throughout your journey in your studies!

          Congratulations, God Bless, Mabuhay kayo at ang K to 12!
