#9 Definition of Discipline, Accountability, Maturity

1. Discipline- discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishments.               
                 
*First we form habits, then they form us.Conquer your bad habits or they conquer you, it is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell. In reading the lives of great men, I found that the first victory they won was over themselves, self-discipline with all of them came first.                     
                                                                    
 2.Accountability- an obligation or willingness to accept responsibility.

#8 The Road Not Taken

 Many years ago, when the word was young, people were allowed to ask God to make them what they were not.           
 Cherry sat in the shade and decided to petition God to make her a Queen. For she noted how powerful any queen was. She had dominion over everyone, and her every wish was obeyed without question. So cherry became a queen.        
For a few weeks it was fun to be so powerful. But she noticed that as a queen she still had to go under a shade when the sun was out.                
 She decided to become the sun as it seemed more powerful than the queen. Thus it came to pass by God's grace.Very quickly she noticed that the clouds obstructed the sun; it must therefore be more powerful. She decided to become a cloud.                  
But when the cloud turned into rain, she wanted to become raindrops. She saw that the drops fell on the stone and decided to become one. Immediately, she saw that the stone cutter had power over the stone, cutting it into the shape mason wanted.                
 Thus, discovering that stone cutter was the most powerful of all, she realized that was her all the while.                  
                                                                                             
                                                              The End... :)

#7 My Hero

"Success is not the key to happiness.Happiness is the key to success.If you love what are you doing you will be successful."                                                                                                                                             
            
 We all know and understand the word Hero is a person had a ability to fly and had a power to save and help those people who need them. But all of this is just a fantasy and never happen in reality. But still there's a real person in real life that we can consider as a hero. Except for god, my family, my love once's and my mentors there is a person that I can consider as my hero. Even though I never mate and never at once see him in person. But still I can say he is a real hero and that is Efren Penaflorida a Pushcart Educator who help those street children to experience how it feels to be studied even though they don't have a chance to go to school everyday, because there parents can't sent them in a public school. That's why I'm glad that there are still a person like him who want to help teach and give a opportunity to those children to learn.                                           
  And it makes him happy pushing a cart to every street they passed by. Because he believe that every cause of his sweat is the equivalent of the children that have a opportunity to learn how to read and write. And it is nice that he love to teach those street children without condition, give food without reason, and care without expectation.

As I read the experience of Fe Jane Augusto nothing exist in my mind.Although I enjoy it because I never experience that kind of event as a whole;there's a great impact to me.

#5 My Experience

 It's not the presence of someone that brings meaning to life, but the way that someone touches you're heart that gives life a beautiful meaning...

  I have an experience and I wan't this to share to you. When I was in first year high school we had a family reunion held at Cebu city for the very first time. When we we're there we went to the house of my relatives for such the purpose of staying for a few days. When we stayed there we really spent our time with each other. We sung, dance, eat and laugh together. After a few days we went to the placed where my mother was born, in Bantayan island, Cebu city. We also visit the grave of my grandfather and grandmother as a respect to them before we celebrate our family reunion. I'm so glad because it was the first time I've met all of my relatives. Then we to Madrid dios church in Bantayan island to attend a evening mass also for a thanks giving that we successfully do of what we wan't to do. After the mass we go back home.

  When I woke up early in the morning, the other relatives of mine are busy cooking for our breakfast, others are busy talking and knowing each other, sharing of what they want to share and others are waiting if the food would finished to cooked. After cooking we ate, then we went to beach that our stomach were fully satiated. It was really an amazing beach , that everyone of us were amazed. I swam and swam even if, I didn't know on how to swim.

  In the following day we came back in Iligan city. That was one of my most unforgettable and enthusiastic experience that I've ever felt. I've enjoyed it a lot and we go back in Iligan that the happiness were really marked in our heart...

#4 I Believe In Soul

As a belief of the older people they believe that the person died was still want to make their love once to feel there esence. That's why they return, not to make scared those person they return for, but they just want to have a connection to those people even if they are in the other world. But for me even if I don't experience those things I can still say that I believe that's paranormal activity, as what my relatives share there experience. And many peoples say's they don't want to experience those things because they afraid and others say's also taht they want toexperience because they believe that it's a blessings from god that other's don't have example of this is a "third eye" that's see's thing's that a normal person cannot see.....

#3 I Won't Stop to Say Thank You to My Family

        Family is the greatest gift that god give us. We must cherish them because they were the first who will comfort us if we have a problem.

        But as what i see this days most of people are just ignoring there family and they have no time to each other.And others are didn't give respect and show their love to their love once.As a result of that there are many children that have a lack of attention because of a broken family.

         For me I can show to my parents that they are important is to respect them. And as a return for all of their sacrifices and love to me, 10 years from now i will give all my best to take care of them and give all what they need not just in material thing. I make them feel that they are the precious things that i been receive from god and i will cherish them tell the end of my life.

         I know I'm not a perfect daughter to my parents but I still find ways just to say "thank you" to them that they deserve to have. For me the words "thank you" is not enough to make them feel how much I'm thankful that they are my parents, that's why I obey them just to make them happy and show how much I value all of their sacrifices.


         

#2 A Critical Thinker

   I consider myself as a critical thinker, It's because I know that a real critical thinker is always consider their ability to think critically about the issues and ideas. And I consider those things as my daily activity in life. And as a student I use to question the things that i don't understand by using appropriate strategies just to understand better. It is also important to a critical thinker to discuss, read and write about the issues or problem that they need to present and i have that kind of attitude. But even if  I'm not professional reader still I do my best to make it perfect. So that it's not hard for me to communicate to the other people. And understand all the information and analyze it better.

#1MY MISSION IN LIFE

My mission in life is to become successful in the future.Because everyone of us have a dream,but for me i want to become a policewoman someday.But as a student my mission is to finish my studies and discovered all the skills that i have,because i know in myself that i'm not independent at all.I can't make a decision on my own,...i still depend on my parents and afraid to do things beyond their expectation.And we all know as a student that we are not doing everything just to graduate nor to have a work someday,but also have a knowledge for the time that we are still a student.For me to became a successful not just in studies but also in life is the biggest gift that i have been received from.But as i can see the reality of life,we need to struggle first all the circumtance in life just to reach the goal that we want and fight until the end even if there are things or people that want to pull me down.And one of the mission that i want to achieve was to see my parents to be happy and they can say someday that all their hardwork are not being wasted just to provide me a good life.I also have a lot of things i want to do  just to proved  myself that i'm not yet a loser as what other say to me.And i can't blame other people for what they are saying about me,because even me in my own i know that i don't  have a confidence or a fighting spirit as what other people have.But still i have a reason not to give up and proudly say that my game  in life or my mission in life is not yet over.As long as god is beside me and in guiding me for the time that i'm in pain and facing the calamity of life,yet he's holding me tight to make me brave.........!!!
