Significance Of Rizal Law In The Life Of Students
RIZAL LAW – In this article, we are going to discuss the significance of Rizal Law, especially in the daily lives of students.
But before this, we need to identify what exactly is Rizal Law and how it came to be. Rizal law was first introduced in 1956. The goal of this law was to educate students regarding the ideals of freedom and nationalism through the Philippines national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal.
Because of Rizal Law, students are given the opportunity to learn about the heroes of the Philippines. Furthermore, it also gives the students a glimpse of what the “ideal Filipino” is.
Although, this has caused debate until today. For some, Rizal was merely called the national hero because of his pacificist nature. Additionally, the Americans didn’t want the Filipinos to look up to heroes such as Bonifacio for his more aggressive take to freedom.
So, why do students need to learn about the life of Jose Rizal?
There are several lessons we can pick apart if we read about the life of Jose Rizal. More than anything else, Rizal valued his country, his countrymen, and his morals. So much so that he was willing to die for his country.
With this in mind, here are some of the things students can learn from Rizal:
- Rizal became the epitome of a proper Filipino that emobies the spirit of Freedom and willingness to sacrficice.
- Fighting injustice is necessary
- We need to focus on our goals
- Separate Personal Life from Work
- Use your time to the fullest
Rizal died on December 30, 1896, at the young age of 35. However, even in death his ideals and aspirations for his country lived on. He inspired millions of Filipinos to fight for freedom and he put up a mirror to the injustices of his countrymen’s oppressors.
