It is great to bask under the shining glory of victory, amidst medals and trophies; to experience the joy of having one's efforts rewarded; to feel elated over positive returns after frenzied preparations. But above all these are the rewards of contentment and fulfillment. This is the yearning of every college: to bring home the championship trophy.
The university exists to provide students with opportunities to develop not only the mind, but also the heart, and the soul. Thus, it ensures that every year, the University Day is held so that we, students, will have a venue to showcase our God-given talents. This annual event is a time for us to exercise the spirit of unity, cooperation and camaraderie. Hence, we must set aside pride and strife, which can surely dampen a healthy, delightful competition
When we join contest, we must do so not just to win, for through them, we can actually become better individuals as we hone our talents and even our leadership skills. Then we should realize, too, that our best efforts and cooperation can bring success and also honor the ultimate giver of talents.
Struggling through the many challenges, we may have weakened at times, but what matters most is our persistence to respond positively, to exert best efforts to keep the central spirit alive.
Thus, in our university day competitions, nobody should think himself/herself a loser. Although a winner is always proclaimed in a contest, a Centralian should think this way-that those who have done their best, enjoyed themselves, gained friends, and created fond memories, and winners in their own right.
After all, that is what the Central Spirit is all about.
