    This is a gripping read. Excellent page about Jose Rizal, and thanks for pointing out information that I did not know! While I knew he was an important man, I have missed a great deal that is very important until now.

    I like this lens so much that I featured this in one of my lenses about the Philippines. Thanks!

    Great lens! I am so proud that somebody made a lens about our National hero, Jose Rizal. I loved reading his book "Noli Me Tangere" and "El Filibusterismo" during high school days. Thanks for you time spent writing about our hero. I am very grateful!

    A shame to see that he died fighting for the liberation of the Philippines from Spain only to have the Spanish yoke replaced by the American one.

    Nice lens. Before reading your lens, I was not familiar with Dr. Rizal. Your lens was an education for me.

    Dr. Jose Rizal truly is OUR hero...he understood everything that was going on from the fiars' abuse to the wide reality of life's hardships. I truly appraise him for all he did.

    How sad it is that I have never heard of this man until today. What a love of justice one must have to risk their own life to speak out. Too many great people in history have had to meet death because of their honorable convictions, and this man ranks amongst the best. A great tribute!
  • sweet May 29, 2009 @ 2:02 am | delete
    by the way sorry to correct u the father of jose rizal has the blood of japanese or chinese i forgot, while his mother has spanish side his grand father changed his surname into a spanish surname which is mercado which means market so that's the story ohh btw thank u

    National hero? No...he was much more. He was one of the great lovers. Dedication and sacrifice were the only promises he could make, and the totality in his giving of both were far less than he would've submitted if but he had more to give.

    The poetry alone seethes with his passion.

    Thanks for this and thank you for stepping over into my side of this community. I cannot put to words the honor that I gleaned from that.

    Hi, Mr. Paul. You're such a great man. A foreigner giving tribute to my country's national hero is exceptionally great. Your are not just giving other people the idea who is Rizal, but you are, as well, helps us know more about Rizal. Thank you for giving tribute to our hero.
  • JaguarJulie Apr 16, 2008 @ 1:51 pm | delete
    Paul, I so ENJOY finding little 'treasures' of lenses such as this one on Dr. Jose Rizal - Philippines Hero. Very nicely done and I learned something new today about this man. Thanks for taking time to write this tribute lens. 5 stars. ;-)

    It reminds me all the history stuff I learned in school! Jose Rizal is really a presentation of the Philippines. Fantastic lens! Very educational and full useful contents.

Welcome. This is my modest tribute to a true man of measure. A man who stood up for his beliefs and was to pay the ultimate price.
