SUPERMan
CRSSHHHHHHHHH!!!
“The glasses clashed as they shattered into pieces when the villain harshly destroyed the building with its vigorous power. But what a surprise and disbelief he has when he catch a glimpse of a man wearing a blue shirt, he was shocked to see that the lonely faced of the people was changed into a hopeful one, the new superhero in town is about to save them and defeat the evil villain. They all cheered for the hero of the world has succeeded. A man named Superman.”
Well the movie “Superman Returns” is fantastic. It makes the young viewers or even the older ones say WOW and hang onto their mouths open because of the eye bursting scenes in the movie. It kept me dreaming that I can be as good as him too. When I was younger I even idolized him. Pretending to be him and collecting superman’s stuff has always fond me. His powers to save people from danger, his powers to defeat the evil villain that keeps making the people’s lives miserable, his ability to fly to the skies with one arm rising, and an S in his shirt really makes me amazed.”Could that be really true?”,I asked to myself. But this question has been unintentionally answered as I stepped inside the four corners of the Sampaguita classroom. I felt a different spark in my nerves sensing that Superman could be here. I smiled because I know that it is impossible. But, my mind is still curious about the vibes that it gave me when I arrive to my classroom.
Well, I’ve figured out why. I have sensed a person more truthful than superman because superman only exist in movies. I have met a guy which I believe is my new teacher. The thing that he is way more potent than superman came into my mind. This guy that I am telling you is named Joean Palahang. Well if you just listen to his name, he is 0% superhero material and when you looked at him you would be confused why I considered him as a Superman. But as soon as you know him closer and try to spend extra time with him, you can understand why he is a Superman to me.
He is the guy who is so patient to all his naughty students. He just told us calm words to keep us quiet. He is more powerful than Superman by doing that simple thing. While Superman is reining the box office, “Joepal” always be the star of the classroom. He shares information that he knew and discuss every little part of the topic. He also act like he is one of us. He played with us and sometimes he would join us while were having a laugh.
He want to tolerate us to do good things because I think that he believe that you can achieve anything you desire by doing this. He’s more likely than a friend that will make you realize that a helping hand will always be there in times of problem. He loves us as much as our parents do. He encourages us to go out in that pearly shell and shine and his advices were worth remembering until the end of time.
As the Superman that all of us were astonished is there on the movie theater Mr. Palahang, is not just a superman in the classroom but also an aminable superman in their home. He acts well as a husband and had been faithful to his wife for many years from now. Helives simply in a simple house, but a house full with love, affection, protection and caring. He’s responsibility as a devoted partner of her wife is never ignored.
By these I can tell that you really don’t have to fly or to wear the funny costumes to be a hero. Simple things can make you one. And the simple things that Mr. Joean did is enough evidence or proof that he deserves to be a Superhero. He does not need the Oscar Award as much as Brandon Routh craved for it. He doesn’t need to act or to do anything.By doing things in his own unpretentious ways we can already follow his footsteps to also be a successful guy like him. He doesn’t need the 204 million worth of pesos to be ecstatic but a loving wife by his side and his students with him, is more than a billion of pesos.
I have to be real that the supermans whose faces were on the posters were not the true-to-life SUPERMANS, the real one is not as rare as a leprechaun gold but just a simple and loving mentor. As what Cristopher Reeves said, “A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.” Mr. Palahang will always be the Superman in our hearts and his face will be stuck like a tattoo in our minds forever.
