1. Dr. Jose Rizal highlighted the Story of the Moth in the last chapter of his Memorias to enable him figuratively compare his martyrdom to the moth that died from its illusion and attraction to the beautiful light.
2. In the story, Rizal justified the moth's noble death. He showed that he was not dying in vain. He died as a martyr to light the way for his countrymen and women, young boys and girls, and children to embrace education, liberty, and opportunities for happiness.
3. The moral of Rizal's Moth Story is still relevant for today's generation. Every generation must learn to create the enabling environments for its continued growth and leave a legacy for the next generation.
4. The light in Rizal's Story of the Moth symbolizes intellectual thought and understanding. Positive intellectualism eradicates ignorance, diseases, and death. People perish for lack of knowledge. With light, there is order in society. Light births and sustains "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
Thus, for Filipinos, Dr. Jose Rizal remains the beacon of light, a faithful man that loved God, the Philippines, and Filipinos with bravery and heroism in the face of death.
