A Friendship through time
By: David the Spy

It seems like yesterday when we first we met,
Those bounty feelings of friendship we always get,
Laughing ourselves along the winding road of your dreams,
Oh, how easy everything all seemed.

From vivacious laughs to the unstoppable fear;
Everything we feel comes with a tear.
Judge me wrong or judge me right,
We never tried to let go without a fight.

Through all the challenges, and emotions we get;
We forgot how time quickly melt,
Away from the world, away it must
Time will soon turn everything to dust.

We tried to help out when someone is in trouble
Although some of us were just, too noble;
Bearing in our hearts - "All for one and one for all",
This motto somehow prevented us to fall.

As we move on our separate ways, Our memories will always stay
And one day together we'll fly,
Lifting our dreams high, and never saying goodbye.

UNLAUD HEROES

When we hear the word hero, what comes directly in our minds are the people that fought in the battle or the ones so-called martyrs. But even an ordinary citizen of this country, can be a hero in his own but special way.

Teachers are unlaud heroes. They work hard, write a lot of things, burn their candles just to rpovide knowledge and learning to their students. Yet their great sacrifice is not acclaimed, by many of us. Another example is the OFW's and OCW's abroad.

They work to the bone for their familes, even though it meant that they would be miles away from their loved ones. Even children can be heroes. By helping their parents do the chores and giving assistance to other people without asking for something in return, that shows heroism. But nowadays, few people have this trait.

We should learn to praise these unacclaimed heroes. Every thing they do is priceless and worth keeping.
