Change: It Starts With Me

          They say that young people can’t change anything but I think they are wrong. I know that I’m still young to change so something, but it is not impossible that the change is inside me.

          “To change the world, it starts with a single person. That single person has to have the moral and emotional strength to stand up for what they believe in. One single act of bravery in the face of certain defeat can inspire a lasting change on the world.”
-John Roakes

          I believe that in order to change the world, I must first change myself. I must challenge or change my wrong doings.

          Even though we are still young we have the capability to change something, a change to other people, a change to our community and a change for our nation. I know that we, youth, we have the potential to be a leader, a leader that can lead to your fellowmen.


          Once, a man said, “Before doing something, put God first to your hearts and minds.” In order for us to do something good for the nation, we have to think God first and ask for help and guidance

New Year, New Me

           “New Year, New Me”, a phrase we often hear on new years. Before a year ends every one of us thinks about out New Year’s resolution, this is use for a change. This is like starting doing something new about ourselves, like having a new hobby, having new body posture, being fat, thin or even small.

           I have a story to tell about a man has done his promise. This man is intelligent but his not using his intelligence in doing his school and home works, it always starts on laziness. So, after the 1^st semestral period, he was shocked because his grades are really low, he isn’t passing his projects on time. Repentance is always in his mind, so he made a promise to himself, that he will going to study harder, always do words on time and stop the laziness. He always say,”Kaya ko ‘to, kayak o ‘to.” You know what happen? A big change is done to himself because he rewrites his past hobby, being lazy. After the 2^nd semestral, a big smile is written on his though a big change has done in his grades.


           These new year’s resolutions are great ideas to give people motivation in doing good things about themselves. This should be done within us or within others. Some can’t do what they promise because they don’t want to forget and under write what are they usually doing.
