How many career bandwagons have been laid before you on a silverplatter just waiting for you to jump in and join? How many times have you heard "This will land you the job you always dreamed of!" in college ads as though Uncle Sam were implicitly saying "We want YOU!". Does this necessarily apply to you? O YOU fresh graduates of your universities? To what extent does your country have to woo you? Persuade you? What does our country have to show in the first place?

To this day it never fails to amaze me how thousands of career-hungry fresh graduates would go through all the trouble of securing a slot of their profession in a place away from home. As though the four years they've spent studying their courses could be only be validated by a "Foreigner". The skills they put so much into would only fill "someone else's" void unaware of the void within our own. Supposing this is all worth to maintain a lifestyle defined by career and power? What about here? What about NOW?

We can't blame them or ourselves for simply trying to supply our needs and not turning down opportunity when it knocks. But I believe there is a deeper need beyond our own that we should adhere to first. The need for ideally devoted young people who still believe in our country. We see this "need" in every practical parts of our lives. Whether its on the news on our curbsides, we should be sensitive enough to it. And who better to help remedy this than YOU.

You and your decision to choose a calling that can help this nation. You whose expertise is greatly needed here than in any other part of the world. You who comprises more than half of this nation's population. You who can affect change and is mandated your country.

All you have to do is step up. Take that challenge. Be part of the solution for our own generation and for the generations to come. We can start today. There's not better place to start than your own backyard.
