when you wish upon a star...

I looked at the dark vast sky. The stars tonight are so bright! That one for me is the most intense! I closed my eyes so deeply… and here I began to whisper and wish. Swash! Swish! Swoosh! And there I started DREAMING.

Never did I understand why dreams are made of. But then I unearth that all of the people can make their castle in the sky. It pushes them to go beyond the limits. It is not a force or a law in science but it’s the one that drives people to attain what life has laid for them.

I have a myriad stars to unfold. It is bursting out the sea! And I never wanted it to be just a fantasy I want to put it to LIFE. Since little all I ever crave for is to have loads of toys for my mother can’t buy me one. I was shallow then. Yet now it is far different… in the future I want to see myself and the whole world happy. No violence but only LOVE shall prevail. What a better world we will have. And someday I want to see me being a great general surgeon --I want to save lives… I want be the change and still continue the leader in me. I want to be a public servant and lend my helping hands to people. I want to live in my own simple house with my family and travel to many places. And most of all I want to live for Gods’ purposes. For he is the center of my everything and he’s my life.

I know I’ll be moving heaven and earth to reach for my reveries. I know I can! And I will! because dreams do come true...

CHANGE: it starts with me.

What will I leave behind to mark that I was able to buy? I don’t want to pass by this life with a small arbitrary. I want to leave a bag of my share. I want to be the transformation of my own country, my own world.

We can’t deny the fact that our nation is indeed facing a lot of problems and yes there’s a whole lot more to come. Poverty, crisis, crimes, phenomenon, name it all! The country holds many burdens. It suffered through the years and continues to endure until now. And here comes our generation. The one that will alter for good for his country. This is our time –our epoch to make a change. I know the significance of this cliche of Jose Rizal will never fade that the youth is the hope of the fatherland. I believe we are the culture of hope and not the culture of spare.

I know, here inside my heart lies a hero. I’m just an average girl with simple dreams but I want to make some thing though I can’t do everything. Being a part of an organization, joining or campaigning good advocacy, reaching out to other students in our school through projects and activities , doing goodness, studying hard is a stepping stone for me to exercise my potentials in becoming the hope of he land. I want to start with these small beginnings because from this is the dawn of that great something. We should break out into our shell; we must have a vision, passion, and an action. Because if we don’t we will never learn. If we don’t, we can never be he change we want to see in this world.

I am a HERO, a young Filipino –the change!
