𝐀 𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐝, 𝐀 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐬

Some milestones deserve more than a simple congratulations—they deserve to be celebrated.

Today, the ISAPian Psychological Society proudly celebrates this milestone with three individuals who turned years of dedication, perseverance, and dreams into a profession they can now proudly carry.

Becoming a Registered Psychologist is more than earning a title. It marks the beginning of a journey filled with opportunities to empathize, to help, and to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

May you continue to practice with compassion, purpose, and heart. May every person you encounter remind you why you chose this path.

The dream has been achieved, but the journey of making a difference has only just begun.

Congratulations, and may you always find purpose in the calling you have chosen.

Basta psych, mahuhuPsy! 💜✨

LITERARY | Chosen By Votes, Tested By Values

Behind every election is a choice.

Someone chooses to step forward and say,
“I am willing to serve.”

And someone chooses to believe them.

But when the applause fades, the banners come down, and the voice are counted—

what does it really mean to lead?

Is leadership simply holding a position?

Or is it something heavier?

Because a position is not only a privilege.

It is a responsibility entrusted by people who expect their voices to be carrier with it.

A leader is still a student.

They have classes to attend, dreams to pursue, families to come home to, and a life beyond the title.

And there is nothing wrong with that.

Leadership should never demand that a person lose themselves just to prove they can serve.

But choosing to lead means understanding that there will be moments where personal interest and public responsibilities stand on opposite sides.

And in those moments, leadership is revealed.

Not in how much a person can sacrifice,

but in how they choose.

When convenience conflicts with commitment.

When personal priorities meet the needs of people.

When doing what is right becomes harder than doing what is easy.

That is when integrity stops being a word.

It becomes a decision.

A leader can compromise comfort.

They can adjust their time.

They can ask for help.

But they should never compromise the trust placed in them.

Never accountability.

Never compassion.

Never the values they promise to carry when they asked people to believe in them.

Because leadership without integrity becomes authority without accountability.

Leadership without compassion becomes power without purpose.

And leadership without responsibility becomes nothing more than a title.

So perhaps the question after every election should not only be,

“Who won?”

But,

“What does winning now require from them?”

Because the election ends when votes are counted.

Leadership does not.

The title may be given in a moment.

The responsibility begins after it.

And if we want better leaders, perhaps we must also learn to demand better leadership—

not perfection,

but principles.

Not endless sacrifices,

but responsibility.

Not leaders who simply stand before the people,

but leaders who remember why they were entrusted to stand there.

Because leadership is not about how high you rise above others.

It is about how firmly you stand for those who placed their trust in you.

So before we praise the position,

perhaps we should remember the people who gave them something more valuable than a vote—

their trust.

A position is given by an election.

But leadership?

Leadership must be earned every day.

LITERARY | The melancholic caress of the evening sun

You wake at dusk from the light guided by the blowing curtains, feeling its soft glow burn with warmth against your cheeks, lingering on your skin like a memory, settling within the crumpled spaces on your sheets. Stretching your arms, you yawn a quiet question into the air, "How long was I asleep?"

While the silence in your room is heavy, the world just outside your door is alive— children's laughter fading into the streets, your mother's sharp voice cutting through, "Agawid kan! apay nagsulping ka nga ubingin aya! Inka man agirikip ti tawan!" followed by a grunt, thick with impatience, "Apu ni! Nagsapa paylang kit!!"

The fan hums beside you, whispering familiarity through the air, yet you feel like a stranger in your own room, lost in an empty feeling despite being surrounded by full of messy things— an unmade bed, the curtains pattered with fading flowers, and the pile clothes your mother told you to fold but remained stacked in the corner by the broken cabinet like a life left unlived.

As you reach for the door, fear crawled through the tip of your fingers, afraid that your mother's angry voice will disappear once you leave the room— something you always wish it does until now.

"Inka man pay umuna mangala ti magic sarap dijay kantina sakbay ka mapan agdigus..."

"Bagik tu supli nan ah!"

With your forehead rested on the door, you let their voices linger once more. And as the melancholic caress of the evening sun grows colder, you whisper a quiet plea that it rests slower just to let the memory play longer.

📣 LEADING WITH PURPOSE | MEETING DE AVANCE 2026

On September 17, the ISAPian Psychological Society actively participated in the Meeting de Avance, joining fellow student leaders in an avenue for meaningful engagement, collaboration, and leadership formation.

More than just a gathering, the activity provided an opportunity to strengthen leadership, teamwork, communication, decision-making, and sense of responsibility—values that shape student leaders beyond the organization and into the wider campus community. 🤝✨

Through active participation, we continue to learn, connect, and grow as leaders who are ready to serve with purpose and responsibility.

To our participating student leaders, may this experience become another step toward becoming leaders who listen, collaborate, and lead with purpose. 💜

PSYCHMATES IN THE RACE! 💜✨

“Leadership is not about being in charge. It is about taking care of those in your charge.” — Kurt Lewin

Leadership begins with the courage to step forward and the willingness to take on responsibility. This election season, our fellow Psychology students are taking that step as candidates for the Council of Leaders.

May this journey bring you meaningful experiences, lessons, and opportunities to grow. Sa bawat hakbang, dalhin ang tapang na manguna at pusong handang maglingkod. Whatever the outcome, may you continue to learn, grow, and carry the experience with you. Padayon, psychmates! 🧠💜

𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐑𝐘 | 𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐃𝐈 𝐍𝐀 𝐀𝐊𝐎 𝐀𝐍𝐆 𝐍𝐀𝐆𝐇𝐈𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐀𝐘

Dati, ako ang batang nakaupo sa bintana, naghihintay sa bawat ugong ng sasakyang maaaring maghatid kay papa pauwi.

Ngayon, ako na ang bumabagtas sa mahahabang kalsada. Paminsan-minsan, naiisip kong may isang bintanang tahimik na binubuksan para sa akin.

May mga matang naghihintay. May pusong nagdarasal na sana ligtas akong makauwi.

Bawat alarmang gumigising sa umaga ang hudyat ng panibagong pag-arangkada.

Bawat araw ay parang kalsadang may likong hindi inaasahan at mga daang kailangan pa ring tahakin kahit mabigat na ang mga hakbang.

Hindi na ako ang batang nakasilip sa bintana.

Ako na ang naglalakbay, bitbit ang responsibilidad, pangarap, at pangamba.

Sa katahimikan ng silid, mas malinaw kong naririnig ang boses ni mama.

“Anak, kailan ang uwi mo?”

Hindi ko iyon masagot.

Hindi dahil ayaw kong umuwi.

Kundi dahil may mga pangarap na kailangan munang abutin.

“Anak, kumain ka na ba?”

Noon, nagrereklamo ako sa paulit-ulit na ulam.

Ngayon, itlog ang madalas na nasa hapag, noodles na paulit-ulit, at delatang halos wala nang katapusan. May mga pagkakataong ang pagkain ay panglaman tiyan na lamang.

At doon ko naunawaan ang tanong na iyon.

Hindi lang pala iyon tungkol sa pagkain.

Paraan pala iyon ng pagsasabing,

“Anak, alagaan mo ang sarili mo. Umuwi kang ligtas.”

Darating din ang araw ng aking pag-uwi.

At sa araw na iyon, hindi lang pangarap ang iuuwi ko.

Uuwi rin ang lahat ng pagod, luha, at pangungulilang tahimik kong kinimkim.

Sa pagkakataong iyon, hindi na ako ang batang naghihintay sa pagdating ng aking papa.

𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐑𝐘 | 𝐂𝐔𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐎𝐏𝐄

There are ropes we carry that no one else can see.

Ropes made of grief.
Of loneliness.
Of shame.
Of every cruel word we believed when we were at our weakest.

Sometimes, the darkness becomes so loud that disappearing can feel like peace.

But pain is a liar.

It knows your wounds.
It speaks with your voice.
And it will try to convince you that this moment is forever.

It is not.

So cut the rope.

Not the one that connects you to life.

Cut the rope that keeps you silent.
Cut the rope that tells you asking for help is weakness.
Cut the rope that whispers:

You are a burden.
No one would understand.
You have to carry this alone.

𝗖𝗨𝗧. 𝗜𝗧. 𝗢𝗙𝗙

You do not have to survive beautifully.

Sometimes, courage is crying and still choosing to stay.
Sometimes, courage is making one phone call.
Sometimes, courage is simply saying:

“I need help.”

Your story does not end on its darkest page.

There are still mornings you have not seen.
Still people you have not met.
Still laughter you have not heard.
Still versions of yourself waiting to exist.

And one day, I hope you look back at the version of yourself who almost gave up and whisper:

"𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙠 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙮𝙞𝙣𝙜.”

So when the darkness tells you that there is no way forward—

𝙝𝙤𝙡𝙙 𝙤𝙣.

When pain tells you that you are alone—

𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙘𝙝.

Reach for a hand.
Reach for a friend.
Reach for family.
Reach for a counselor, a professional, or someone you trust.

Because life may not always be sweet.

But you still deserve to taste it.

So cut the silence.
Cut the shame.
Cut pain’s grip.

And if all you can do today is stay—

Then stay.

Just stay.

For tonight.
For tomorrow.
For the version of you who is still waiting somewhere in the future.

𝑪𝑼𝑻 𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑹𝑶𝑷𝑬.
𝑵𝑶𝑻 𝒀𝑶𝑼𝑹 𝑳𝑰𝑭𝑬.

And please—

𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐘.

Together, we can support one another, speak openly about mental health, and create a world where no one feels they have to face their darkest moments alone.

𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑.
𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐋𝐈𝐅𝐄 𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒.
𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐋𝐋 𝐇𝐎𝐏𝐄.
