Day Worth Celebrating

One of the most significant dates in the Philippine's history is the Independence Day because it marks the nation's independence from the Spanish rule. It's been 120 years since we were free from foreigners who colonized our country. We were declared independent last June 12, 1898. Our ancestors fought and died for our country, they sacrificed so many things in order for the Philippines to be free and it's something worth celebrating.

We celebrate our country's independence to acknowledge the sacrifices our ancestors did. To recall how brave they fought for their rights as the citizens of our country. To remember that no matter how hard it is they still remained strong. To thank the people who helped our country during its downfall. To know that it is important to always have unity.

We, Filipinos celebrate it by giving flowers to the statues of our heroes, by praying for them and by thanking them for what they did. For us, millenials we share, like, comment and tweet using our social media account. It is important to always celebrate our country's independence because it is worth remembering. We wouldn't be here if they didn't endure the pain while they fought. We should always remember it.
