Filipino Language: From Baler to Entire Philippines

Our country have many dialects from Batanes to Jolo. Some of them were used by the Filipinos here in the Philippines. Millions of Filipinos used the language "FILIPINO", and considered as the National language of the Phlilippines.
Filipino, our national language, that we use in communicating fellow Filipinos. Let us discover where our language was originated. It was first initiated by our former President Manuel L. Quezon. He lived from Baler, a municipality of the province of Aurora. As an honor to the former president, we now call him as the "FATHER OF FILIPINO LANGUAGE". We celebrate once a year the "BUWAN NG WIKA" during the month of August 1-31. The official theme for that celebration was "Wikang FILIPINO: Mula Baler Hanggang Buong Pilipinas". Why Baler?,it's because it is a sign of our joining the government and all Filipinos celebrating the 400th years of Baler, and we are familiar about the movie "Baler".
We should use our own language. We should be proud that we are Filipino, that has it own languge. Our language makes us known to the whole world, it's because Philippines have many dialects.
