Assignment 1. Is Dr.

Jose Rizal an ideal role model for the

Filipino youth?

We all know that Dr. Jose Rizal has done so many things to our country, Rizal gave
us freedom by using goodness.Jose Rizal became the Philippine national hero
because he fought for freedom in a silent but in a powerful way. He expressed his
love for the Philippines through his novels,essays and articles rather than through
the use of force.He was a very amazing person during his time. He was humble,
fighting for reforms through his writings instead of through a revolution, guns and
sords. He used his intelligence, talents and skills in a more peaceful way rather
than the forceful way.
On the other hand, we might as well consider him as an ideal role model for the
young Filipino, because he’s a multifaceted individual both
through the mind and manipulative areas, not to mention his inherit character
and the love to people, especially to the poor. His sensitivity to the needs of
others was overwhelming as evidenced by his sincere services to the people as
doctor, engineer, teacher, artist, farmer and the like. He fought through his pen,
books and knowledge and that is the reason why Dr. Jose Rizal should be the role
model of the Filipino youth today.
