It is June 12, Independence Day, so all Filipinos find themselves an extra holiday to enjoy with loved ones. In particular, teachers find an extra day to be with families.

Teachers should incorporate this event in their present and future lessons. In the course of time, significance of Independence from invaders and colonizers is not given its due emphasis. Time does this since time is always short. We never give time enough for memorable events. We have to strike our breasts in "mea culpa" as to the many occasions we do not thank God enough for the extended time.

At the moment however, let us just focus on June 12, the time when Independence was given to every Filipino. We look at each other and we raise our heads up to The Almighty for the great gift.
