I am reading The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale, and I was greatly inspired to integrate some of the salient points from the first chapter into my message to this year’s awardees. Norman begins his book by emphasizing the importance of believing in ourselves.

I want to share the first paragraph of the book:

“Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers, you cannot be successful or happy. But with sound self-confidence, you can succeed. A sense of inferiority and inadequacy interferes with the attainment of your hopes, but self-confidence leads to self-realization and achievement.”

I have shared this message with our Student Republic Officers, highlighting that a Tradean leader must exemplify confidence, tempered with humility. A Tradean should learn to overcome feelings of inferiority and continually strive for personal growth. In line with this, Norman reinforces a powerful biblical affirmation: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13).

As we commemorate SR Parangal 2025: Celebrating Excellence in Inclusive Leadership, let us remember that genuine leadership begins with self-belief grounded in purpose, faith, and humility. Inclusive leadership starts with empowering ourselves. By developing inner strength and confidence, our leaders can more effectively inspire unity, serve with compassion, and lead with integrity across various groups. Let us continue to cultivate a culture in which every voice is heard and every leader encourages others to believe in themselves.

Congratulations, fellow advisers and Tradean student leaders! Isa na naman ka tuig kag panibag-o nga kahigayunan ang nahatag para sa serbisyo kag kadalag-an. Happiness and prayers always!

🎉 **Goodbye, 2024 | Hello, 2025!*🙏

As we close the chapter of 2024, I can’t help but reflect on all the moments—both the challenges that tested me and all the blessings that strengthened me. Through it all, Lord Jesus' grace has been my constant guide, reminding me to trust His plan.

To every trial, failed relationship, and betrayal, I thank you Lord for teaching me resilience, fortitude, and love. To every blessing, thank you for letting filling my heart with gratitude and love.

Now, I welcome 2025 with open arms and a positive spirit, ready for the opportunities, new people to meet, lessons, and growth it will bring. I pray for health, money, happiness, love, and success for everyone. May we all walk into this new year with faith, hope, and love!

✨ Here’s to a beautiful 2025! God bless us all! Happy New Year to all! ❤️‍🔥🎊😇

Gusto kong tumula.
Iyon bang mahabang-mahaba,
Na sa bawat sukat, saknong, at taludtod,
Nandoon ang temang paghanga ko’t pagtatanging nabubukod.

Gusto kitang alayan ng kanta.
Sasayawan natin ang imahinasyong tunog ng gitara.
Sabay nating pupunuin ang hangin sa koro at lalakasan ang tunog sa coda…
Hanggang sa maglalapat ang pisngi at iyong labi sa tenga.

Gusto kong makita ang iyong aliw-iw at sayaw.
Kagat-kagat ang rosas hanggang sa muling pagsikat ng magiliw na araw.
Susulitin ang panahon matapos lang ang paghanduraw…
Sa ala-alang walang katapusang tayo lamang at ikaw.

Hindi na ako namamansin ano?
Napagod na siguro at nagkakaedad na rin.
Nakiayon sa panahon na gumawa na mismo ng paraan para tuluyan ng magpaalam.

Oras na ang nagdikta sa mga naging kakulangan...
Kaya't kinailangang punuin ang kulang sa paraang dapat na may bitawan!

Tayo 'yon!
Ang kailangang bumitaw.

Ay mali...
Ako lang pala!
Dahil noon pa...
Alam kong nawala ka na.

Matagal ka ng nagpaalam.
Matagal na akong nakagapos sa ilusyon.
Naniwala sa maraming pagbabakasakali.
Na may pag-asang muling magiging tayo,
Na magkakalabuan kayo,
Na iiwan ka rin niya...
At babalik ka.

Ang tagal na rin...
Kaya heto,
Hindi na ako namamansin.
Hindi na ako nakakaramdam.
Sarado na ang isipan at ni walang planong buksan ang puso kahit maraming nagpaparamdam.
Hindi ko na alam kong ano ang relasyon.
Hindi ko na nga naalala ang pakiramdam ng kinikilig,
O 'yong sabing nakalutang sa langit;
O 'yong pakiramdam ng nag-iinit na katawan.

Wala na!
Wala na ang linya sa palad na nagsasabing kapag hahawakan mo, magtatagal tayo.
Wala na ang mga bilog sa palad na nagsasabing iyon ang bilang ng magiging produkto.
Nauto ako.
Naniwala ako dun.

Pasensya ka na,
Hindi na ako namamansin.
Hindi na ako nangangamusta.
Hindi ko na tinatanong kung napapasaya ka niya.
Kung masaya ka.
Tandaan mo...
Sa paraang ito,
Baka may madadapa sa harap ko,
Mababago ang isip ko,
Magbubukas at magsasabing...
“Tama lang na bumitaw ka, at ako ang sumalo!”
