Reflection
Dr. Jose Rizal is really amazing because at a young age he showed extraordinary intelligence, because at a young age he quickly learned how to read, write
and draw. until he grows up he always receives awards for his extraordinary ability from any other field. but when I was young, only games were always
on my mind, I never thought of reading or even writing because all I had in mind was that playing was more fun than reading and writing.
