WHEN the heart is full, the lips cannot speak. But tonight, I shall make an exception.

This journey to become your District Governor, was a dream.

Rotary allows us to work hard. Reach out to all the communities. Uplift them with respect and dignity. And we walk out of there, feeling ten feet tall. Because we have changed the lives of these people.

I promise you that when we walk out of the year in June 2027, you will be new persons: transformed, becoming better Rotarians, and most of all, confident, assured, and people with love, respect and compassion in your hearts.

This is what I want to do in my life. I found my life's calling. And of serving the dispossessed, the depressed, the needy, the lonely; I promise I will be there for them.

We are going to leave this earth with nothing. And the only thing that matters most, are the lives with touch, that changes them and us forever.

I love you all. Mabuhay ang Rotary!
