Preamble Ramble

"We, the sovereign Filipino people, imploring the aid of our Almighty God, in order to build a just and humane society and establish a government that shall embody our ideals and aspirations, promote the common good, conserve and develop our patrimony, and secure to ourselves and our posterity the blessings of independence and democracy under the rule of law and a regime of truth, justice, freedom, love, equality and peace, do ordain and promulgate this constitution."

This hallucinating sentence is a requirement of our C.A.T. officers to us. At first look, I was greatly discouraged that we are required to memorize this as part of our C.A.T. grade. But when I realize that memorizing this will only spend time lesser than the half of my life, I soon to finish memorizing this Preamble.

Speaking in the first time makes me feel like stating a tongue twister. It broke my language entity yet improved my speaking ability. The Preamble takes a lot of me, and my saliva of course. But, despite of its characteristics I see worth blaming, it states an encouraging theme for us Filipinos to have great concern to our society with the love of God. I don't condemn this sentence in a manner of meaning. I am only complaining on its manner of delivering. I'm not a grammar teacher or anyone involving the study of speeches, but I am a person required to say this in front of the class.

Don't take this message seriously, because what matters is my recitation of it. O.O
