โ€œHow to Save a Lifeโ€

When they stop speaking, when their laughter dies in the corner of the room, you must not look away. You must not pretend their smile is the whole story. You must sit in the pause, in the weight, in the space where words refuse to form.

They do not need solutions. They do not need reasons. They need someone to stay when the world feels unbearable. To remind them, without decoration or noise, that their life matters.

If they forget tomorrow, you must remind them again. If they fall silent, you must listen harder. If they want to leave, you must ask for one more day. And if that day is heavy, then one more day after that.

They are not replaceable. Death ends everything, but life allows change and new beginnings. And it is better to continue those beginnings than to face a world when they are gone.

Thatโ€™s how you save a life.

Every progress you make now lays the stepping stone for the months ahead. Stay focused, stay steady, and donโ€™t forget to rest. Itโ€™s okay to pause, breathe, and reset. โณ

Youโ€™re not expected to be perfect, youโ€™re expected to try. And that effort? It always counts. Even on the hard days. Even when you're unsure.

So give it your best shot, JuanScians. Youโ€™ve got this! Let this be the start of something great.โœจ

We're cheering you on all the way on your journey.

In the past, our country was once colonized by three different countriesโ€”Spain, Japan, and the United States of America.

We were not given our pound of justice and independence.

But they fought for usโ€”our heroes fought for our sake. They sacrificed themselves because they knew what was right.

Whatever their sexuality or age. No matter what their situations were in life. No matter the way they fought for us, they still chose to fight for what we deservedโ€”freedom and justice.

As we celebrate our National Heroes Day, let us acknowledge the hardships of our beloved heroes by commemorating their sacrifices for us all.
