As a Filipino, I am Carlos P. Romulo and I embrace my cultural background as well as confront the uncertainties of tomorrow. I have a dual responsibility: to pay homage to the achievements of those who preceded me and to carry out my obligations towards future offspring. My ancestry can be linked back to the courageous Malayan explorers who sailed through perilous waters in vessels as delicate as their steadfast determination.
As they sail across the sea, propelled by powerful waves and winds, I witness their arrival with hope for a better life in the new land. They discover the sought-after land, and every element of it holds great importance to me. The initial glimpse of the shore, the inviting hills and mountains adorned with vivid colors, the vast plains stretching before them, and the rivers and lakes promising weal
...th and commerce all have a special place in my heart.
Throughout countless centuries, this rich and joyful land has belonged to my ancestors through their unwavering determination and hard work, abiding by both human and divine laws. It encompasses everything within it – the dark and fertile soil, the teeming seas, lakes, and rivers full of fish, the forests abundant with wildlife and lumber, as well as the mineral-rich mountains. This land is truly the cherished inheritance of my family.
As a Filipino, I have inherited this land from my ancestors and it is my duty to pass it on to future generations while ensuring its preservation forever. The courageous acts of heroes in our history, like Lapu-Lapu's defiance against invaders, Lakandula's resistance against foreign adversaries, and the revolts led by Diego Silang an
Dagohoy against distant oppressors, have left an indomitable spirit that runs through my veins. This eternal spirit still flows within me today.
The seed which bloomed in Jose Rizal's heart during his final moments in Bagumbayan, where he met his mortal end but became immortal in spirit, is the same seed that bloomed in the hearts of other heroes. This includes Bonifacio in Balintawak, Gregorio del Pilar at Tirad Pass, and Antonio Luna at Calumpit. It also bloomed as flowers of frustration in Emilio Aguinaldo's sad heart in Palanan. However, it burst forth triumphantly once more in Manuel L. Quezon's proud heart when he finally stood before the ancient Malacanang Palace, symbolizing possession and vindication for his race.
