𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑮𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒐𝒇 "𝑩𝒆𝒓 𝑴𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒉𝒔"

As the “ber months” arrive, the air softens with anticipation, and hearts quietly hum with warmth. Streets begin to glimmer early with running lights and simple melodies, laughter drifts from homes, and every gathering becomes a tender celebration of togetherness. It is a season where time slows just enough for Filipino families to bloom in shared stories, cozy moments, and the comforting rhythm of home.

These Christmassy months are not just a passage of time, but a quiet symphony of belonging—where joy unfolds slowly, beautifully, like the first light of dawn. Beneath golden skies, families gather not as fleeting faces but as constellations of memory and laughter. Here, joy unfurls not in grand spectacles but in the gentle warmth of clasped hands, shared meals, and whispered stories that linger long after the day ends.

In the heart of these months, laughter sparkles brighter than any light, and family ties become the gentle glow that guides our days. The season wraps us in a golden embrace, where love becomes the star that leads us home. Every smile, every quiet moment, paints a portrait of togetherness—a reminder that home is not just a place but a heartbeat alive with warmth, memory, and endless quiet joy.

The early Christmas air carries a tender glow, drawing families closer. It is a season for slowing down, for being near the ones who matter most. In its embrace, ordinary days turn into moments that shine, and ordinary moments into memories that last.

Indeed, "ber months" bloom with warmth and cheer, with stories and laughter woven into their very soul. They invite us to gather, to love, and to live in the quiet glow of togetherness—a season of hearts entwined, of home alive with light, and of love that endures.

𝐔𝐑𝐁𝐈𝐙𝐓𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐎, 𝐒𝐚𝐧 𝐉𝐮𝐚𝐧—The LEO Club of Union Christian College conducted its first activity as a newly organized club through a coastal clean-up, September 7, 2025.

Club members and advisers collected trash along the shoreline, including plastic waste and debris, as part of their weekly environmental initiative.

The activity is part of the club’s commitment to environmental preservation and community service.

According to the group, another coastal clean-up is scheduled next week as they continue their efforts to protect the coastal environment.

After the clean-up, the members also visited Mebuyan’s Vessel, an art installation in San Juan that remains a popular tourist attraction.

𝘼 𝙍𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙤 𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙮

September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month—a time to remember those we’ve lost, to honor those silently struggling and fighting battles we may never see, and to remind us that every story matters, every voice deserves to be heard, and every life is a reason to stay.

Every year, thousands or even millions of lives are lost to su***de, yet countless others are saved by a single moment of connection—making a difference between leaving and choosing to stay. Not only that, but also finding a way to survive and a reason to remain, even in the midst of a battle. Mental health is often invisible and lacks the attention of many people. Those who carry it may feel isolated in their battles and struggle to reach out for help, which can tragically lead to su***de.

Those who are facing their very own silent battles may feel that a call for help could mean being weak, and unable to tolerate their own struggles no matter how hard it is to face. Seeking help does not make a person weak, but makes them stronger. It shows the courage and braveness they carry to speak up, and a reminder that it is okay not to be okay.

Su***de is a serious matter that needs to be seen, it is not just an individual issue but a community concern. Sometimes all it needs is a simple act of compassion that could be from a friend, a classmate, a teacher, a family member, or even from a stranger. Knowing that someone cares is enough for a person to keep holding on.

Su***de Prevention Awareness Month is a reminder that a simple action could be a reason to hold on. A reminder that every life has value and every silent battle is worth to be seen and heard. We may not always carry the answers for those who are struggling but we can always offer our presence, and give them hope. Sometimes, being someone’s reason to stay can change a life or even save it.

𝘽𝙖𝙠𝙖 𝙉𝙖𝙢𝙖𝙣 𝙉𝙖𝙠𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙢𝙪𝙩𝙖𝙣 𝙈𝙤 𝙉𝙖?

Pebrero 25, 1986—isang araw na nagpabago sa takbo ng ating kasaysayan. Isang rebolusyong walang bala, walang dahas, ngunit nagpatumba sa diktadura.

Tatlong dekada at siyam na taon na ang lumipas mula nang ipakita ng sambayanang Pilipino ang tunay na lakas ng nagkakaisang bayan. Milyon-milyon ang nagmartsa, hindi para sa iilan, kundi para sa kinabukasan ng lahat.

Huwag hayaang malimutan. Huwag hayaang maulit ang madilim na bahagi ng ating kasaysayan. Ang People Power ay hindi isang kabanata lang sa libro, kundi isang paninindigan na dapat nating ipasa sa susunod na henerasyon.
