already reached the Philippines and changed the perspective of many people had a great impact on Rizal’s character and destiny. The effects of the said revolutions in a way

If you were born during Rizal’s time (19th century) would you accomplish and achieve the same thing that he did ? Why, or why not? (Answer this question individually)

Group member 1: John Kenneth D. Arellon

Provably, no. First, many were also born during that time and yet only Rizal was able to attain such achievement. I think it’s not a question of time but a question of ability and
determination we possess that truly determines who we can be. Second, I may also have achievements and actions that can contribute to the nation but not necessarily to be the
same as Rizal did. Lastly, there are things that are not really meant for us and we are destined to roles different from each other. And who knows if I was born during that time,
maybe the legacy of Rizal may have never came to life and its my name that we are talking about today rather than Rizal.
