Why Is Jose Rizal Our National Hero
Why Is Jose Rizal Our National Hero
Why Is Jose Rizal Our National Hero
(Reaction Paper)
Dr. Jose Rizal is unquestionably our greatest national hero and martyr of our
nation. We cannot deny the fact that many other heroes gave their lives for
our country by fighting foreign invaders with their sharp weapons, but Rizal
was still selected as our national hero whereas he uses pen only. For the pen
is mightier than the sword that a person can cause people to change their
opinions on a large scale whereas a sword can only change a person's
opinion by force and then often only results in the person's death. It means
that written material like books or poetry has more influence than fighting or
war. We may also understand from it that ideas are more effective than
violence. The pen also is much more influential than the sword. It should be a
source of all the Filipinos to have one of such excellent and merits which may
be equalled but not surpassed by any other man. But we sometimes denied in
ourselves what he did in order to save our country. Sometimes other says that
he does not deserve to be called our national hero for he never fights by
sword and immediately kill the invaders.
His humble opinions open the heart of every reader and let them realize the
things that are possible to happen in our own country. He did not think only for
his personal interest but all for the sake of his country. He could have and did
whatever he wants in life, have the things he like and think of the best way to
have more wealth though its possible for he was a wise man. But for him the
voice of his race was powerful against his own personal prosperity and
preferred to live far from his families and friends and sacrifices himself for the
freedom of his country.
He had high courage, humbleness just like our saviour Jesus Christ, to die
loving his murderers though it is not that very easy especially when you dont
have anything done wrong. But if you truly love, you must sacrifice yourselves
just to make your love...
