The President of Bukidnon State University, Dr. Victor Melendez Barroso, is turning 65 years old on January 12. Today, January 8, he has invited all the teachers to have snacks with him and his family, his better half, Dr. Remedios T. Barroso at his side. While this is being done every time our president celebrates his birthday, this time it will be different because he will be reaching some crossroad: life beyond 65 and an extended stint still as President of BSU!
Birthdays are reminders of the time we were born; how far we have done with the years of our life and with the remaining years, if gifted with more, view it as "new leashes of life" for the better. It should also be a time to "pay forward" in any way. As we are already well aware, some do not look at birthdays this way such that they remain the cranky, selfish and uncooperative persons they have always been before their birthdays.
To celebrants, therefore, Teacher's teacher dedicates some excerpts of a poem which state:
"Today, well lived, makes every yesterday, a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well therefore to this day. Such is the salutation to the dawn."
