But as God has not made anything useless in
this world, as all beings fulfill obligations or a role
in the sublime drama of Creation, I cannot exempt
myself from this duty and small though it be, I too
have a mission to fulfill, as for example: alleviating
the suffering of my fellow men .
I realize that all his mean sacrifices and
terrible ones. I imagine the pain which I must give
you, but I feel something that obliges and impels
me to leave. I shall strive with fate, and I shall win
or lose…. God’s will be done.
Fortunately, Rizal’s tragic first
romance, with its bitter disillusionment,
did not adversely affect his studies in
the University of Santo Tomas. His
love for higher education proved to be
greater than his love for a pretty
girl.Even his mother disapproved his
decision in enrolling to UST for higher
education because she believed that
too much knowledge will make Rizal a
hot item by the Spaniards.
Consequently, during his
first year term (1877-79) in
the UST, he studied :
1.Cosmology
2. Metaphysics
3. Theodicy
4. History of Philosophy
 It was during the following school term
(1878-1879) that Rizal took up
medicine, enrolling simultaneously in
the preparatory medical course and the
regular first year medical course. The
reasons why he studied medicine
were:
In April, 1877, Rizal, who was then nearly 16
years old, matriculated in the University of
Santo Tomas, taking Philosophy and Letters. He
enrolled in this course for two reasons:
When Rizal was a freshman medical student at the
University of Santo Tomas, he got his first taste of
Spanish brutality. One dark night in Calamba, during
his summer vacation in 1880, he was walking in the
street. He dimly perceived the figure of a man while
passing him. Not knowing the person due to
darkness, he did not salute or say a courteous
“Good Evening.” The vague figure was a lieutenant
of the Guardia Civil. With a snarl, he turned upon
Rizal, whipped out a sword and brutally slashed the
l
The wound was not serious, but it was painful.
When he recovered, Rizal reported the
incident to General Primo de Rivera, the
Spanish Governor-General of the Philippines
at that time. But nothing came out of his
complaint, because he was an indio, and the
abusive lieutenant was a Spaniard. In a letter
to Blumentritt, dated March 21, 1887, he
related: “I went to the Captain-General but I
could not obtain any Justice; my wound lasted
two weeks.
TO THE FILIPINO YOUTH (1879)
