Life is full of challenges specially with the recent tragedies our country faces… but remember that WE CAN ALWAYS MAKE IT BETTER… have a great and peaceful day from PeaceTech :)
“I look to the young to make use of technology, new and old, in order to reach out to a wider community and wider world, to bridge the gaps which separate people from one another, and to let go of the biases, prejudices and myths which feed discrimination, and replace these with a tolerance and open-minded acceptance of others, which is more in keeping with our shared humanity and the underlying human dignity of all persons. We look to you to be leaders in this regard, and I am certain that in this, our faith in you will also be justified.”
~ LEILA M. DE LIMA during the UP Cebu Graduation 2010~
