Director Jonathan V. Dirain lead the induction of the newly elected officers of the Pag-asa Youth Association Regional Federation III on 22 August 2023 at the City of San Fernando, Pampanga.
The new president is Bulacan’s very own Roel G. Abraham, together with other youths from different provinces in Central Luzon.
“You possess an undeniable spark,” the social welfare director said to about 500 attendees. His inspirational message gave new meaning to life’s setbacks and challenges. Here is the full copy of his message to all the youth:
To the vibrant and resilient PYAP youth of Central Luzon,
You possess an undeniable spark, a potential that knows no bounds. Life’s journey may have led you away from traditional classrooms, but remember, education and growth are not confined within four walls. Your unique experiences, challenges, and aspirations are your teachers now.
In the face of adversity, you can rise as a self-made scholar of life. Every obstacle you conquer, every setback you overcome, adds to the wisdom that shapes your character. Your determination is your compass, guiding you through uncharted territories toward the shores of success.
Embrace the power of curiosity and self-discovery. Seek knowledge in every interaction, every experience. Life is your canvas, waiting for you to paint your dreams with vivid strokes of passion and purpose.
Remember, your journey is your own, and it’s not about where you start, but where you choose to go. Believe in your potential, for within you lies the ability to shape your destiny. Let your story be an inspiration, a testament to the strength of the human spirit.
Keep your dreams alive, set your goals high, and work relentlessly towards them. Let nothing deter you, for your resilience is your greatest asset. The world awaits your unique contributions, and your determination will carve a path toward a future filled with achievement and fulfillment.
Believe in yourself, stay focused, and keep pushing forward. Your journey may be unconventional, but it is yours to own and celebrate. The Philippines and the world eagerly anticipate the greatness you will undoubtedly bring forth.
Stay determined, stay inspired, and let your light shine brightly for all to see.
