I was walking around the park wondering what would happen if the Spaniards had not given us to the Americans. Would we be still slaves? Could Rizal's hardships ignite our forefather's hearts for a second time? Those thoughts were circling in my mind but someone touched my back. "Hola, my countryman.",said the man. I was astonished. Rizal was right there before my eyes. We greeted each other in Spanish I was stunned that I lost my vocabularies. He talked me into revealing the effects of his wondrous and heroic sacrifices. " What do you think about our modern government today? Do you think I would like the way they govern us now as I would like them to be during my times?",he told me. I answered sheepishly," Well, our government chose wisely on improving the economy. They are using your principles and ideas in politics and freedom." I saw his eyes sparkle and I knew that he also knew that his plans are going to be true and it sure is. " Have faith and fear not my fellow countryman for I see that our country is having its moment of glory." And he turned his back and walked away. I believed in him and I was ready to make a difference.
