AN INVITATION to CONTRIBUTE AND WRITE YOUR MEMOIR

    Filipinos' value for EDUCATION is undeniable.  It is not surprising that our people has the highest regard for the premier institution of higher learning in the country. the University of the Philippines.  On the fourth month of the Centennial Year, a New Charter was signed by the President of the Philippines Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo with the 19th and First Woman UP President, Emerlinda R. Roman, the UP Community and the sponsors of the bill in attendance. The aim of the charter is to help UP become a better and stronger national university for the people.  UP can only be good as its faculty, its students and its programs.  If it is to fulfill its mission, it needs to be always at the cutting edge of things.  The reforms embodied in the New Charter will allow UP to keep in step with the times.
     In honor of the New Charter and dedicated to the UP President who made it possible after 25 years of trying by previous presidents, and in commemoration of the new century UP has embarked, this book MEMORIES will be the legacy of this generation in the 21st century.  
    Individually, there are varied reasons for accepting this invitation to contribute and write:
*  Pen your memoir now, your story for your progeny, and be published for a minimal cost
*  This is an opportunity to meet new friends and get acquainted with "lost" ones
*  Share your "pearls of wisdom" and lessons learned in life, express your humble gratitude
*  Our writings will outlive us, a chance of a  "lifetime of giving" through an endowment fund people will benefit from, now and in generations to come.
  "Having" and "giving" are two different things.  In "having" we acquire possessions, properties, goods, experiences that we now have.  This invitation to write is "giving", we share what we have, be it experience, ideas, lessons, talent in prose and poetry.  We are lucky to have acquired, talent and treasures, so much have we received.  Take time now, our chance to express gratitude by giving.  All these for a tax-deductible contribution for an even greater cause...EDUCATION  of our people.
