Puhon is a beautiful Cebuano word that means God willing or hopefully. It is a word that carries hope,determination and a touch of magic.And today I was hoping to sprinkle some of that magic on my own aspirations.

The oathtaking ceremony was a reminder of the power of education.It is not just about textbooks and exams it is also about shaping lives,inspiring minds and creating a better future.Teachers are not just educators they are also role models,mentors and guides.

This day was a powerful reminder that our puhon is not just a word it is a promise.It is a promise to ourselves to work hard,to believe in our dreams and to never give up.
