Nakaninong kamay nga ba ang kapalaran?

Nangingealam nga ba ang Diyos sa buhay nating mga tao o tayo ba talaga ang may hawak ng mga kapalaran natin? 

Madami, ang Diyos ang sinisisi sa mga panahon ng paghihirap.

 Pero hindi ba nila naiisip na hindi naman tayo bibigyan ng problema na 'di natin malalagpasan at ang mga unos na binabato satin ay mga pagsubok lamang upang mapatibay tayo bilang mga nilalang dito sa mundo. 

Hindi naiisip ng iba na ang mga ito ay binibigay lang satin para mapabuti tayo. 

Kailanma'y di tayo pababayaan ng Diyos. 

Sinong Ama ba ang nagnais na mahirapan ang kanyang mga anak? 

Wala. 

Lahat ng ama ay nagnanais na lumaking matapang ang anak niya. Ika nga nila, nasa Diyos ang awa ngunit nasa tao parin ang gawa. Naniniwala ako na kahit ano man ang mangyari, ito'y nakasalalay lahat sa atin. 

Tao lang din ang siyang gumamagawa ng sarili niyang kapalaran. Nasa kanya nalang kung tatahakin niya ba ang maayos na daan. Nasa kanya ang desisyon upang maisaayos ang buhay niya.

“It made me realize that your mother tongue comes to you without any effort on your part. It is a dowry that comes into your possession without you noticing. It is then judged by another language that has been added later and that comes from somewhere else. Your mother tongue feels as direct and unconditional as your own skin, and it is just as vulnerable if held in low esteem, treated with contempt, or even banned by others.” -Herta Müller 

Recently there have been headlines stating that Filipino subjects will be removed

from the college curriculum and I personally think that this is a tremendously nonsensical idea. 

Why?

Because even though we speak the language and have been speaking it ever since we first learned how to talk, some still make grammatical mistakes and spelling errors. Sad, isn't it? It's our native tongue but it seems so foreign to other people. 

The first thought that came to my mind upon hearing about this was, "Why remove it now when the youth needs it the most?" The new generation of Pinoys are in crucial need of additional education when it comes to our mother tongue because of the technology we have today. 

Words and sentences are abbreviated in text messages and social media posts thus affecting how the youth today makes use of the language in the real world and in school. 

In our respective learning institutions, we use English as the medium for conversations and this goes on until we enter the corporate world. This leaves us with the towering tendency of completely forgetting about our own language.

"He who does not love his own language is worse than an animal and smelly fish." 

-Dr. Jose P. Rizal

This is something that I totally agree with. 

Another thing that concerns me is the number of college professors instructing Filipino subjects that will lose their means of living once this idiotic law is passed and put into action.
