It is December 30, and we Filipinos never forget what our national hero, Jose Rizal did to our country. He spent most of his years fighting for the Filipinos' freedom, thus, making us proud of him, and to our heritage.

Being a Filipino is worth living for. Our heritage is unique in our own way. We give importance to our culture, and most of all, our fellow countrymen.
