TRUE ESSENCE OF CHRISTMAS.


Christmas, as we, the Catholics, know that this is the birthday of Jesus Christ, our savior. Most of us believe that it is the giving and receiving of gifts, day of parties and games.

God gave his only son Jesus for us to be saved from sin, and that is the gift we received from our creator, but in my opinion its not just only a gift, but it is his way for showing his love for us, he wanted to save us from sin because he loves us so much.


So for me Christmas is not only about material gifts, it is not only celebrating it by parties and games. For me it is a day to set aside the hate, and think about loving and caring for each and every one of us. For me it is a day to share happiness, help those who need help, and love those who needed love.


May we the true essence of Christmas be always in our hearts and minds, through out the year, not only in the month of December or in "-ber months". LOVE our fellowmen, forgive those who have sin with us, care and help those who are in need of help.

ABNORMALITY IN THE CLIMATE

         We often talk about the climate, maybe we almost know everything about it, we know how heavy a rain could be, we know when will the spring or summer would come, but we can do anything about it, PAG-ASA can't do anything about it, we'll just have to accept what it'll do to us. 20px;">            Earlier this November a super typhoon named Yolanda, had struck our country, it brought a worst nightmare for the people in the Visayas Region. It destroyed and washaed out many municipalities especially Tacloban.           This DEVASTATION brought by typhoon Yolanda had caused many live, it caused many infrastructures to fall down, it cause hunger and sickness, nothing but a nightmare no one could ever imagine.
            Typhoon like this is an effect of climate change; super typhoon, global warming, drought, abnormal volcanic eruption is some of its effect. Well, climate change naturally happens, it happens in a long period of time, years, and decades. But typhoons like Yolanda, I think the humankind had contributed on how severe it had cause. 
            Abnormality in the climate is the result of our doings. Cutting down trees, improper disposal of trashes, improper use of our resources were the main cause of this abnormality.
           But of course, we could still fix this problem, there's a "therapy" on this abnormality, we can start this simply by the ways like, Reducing, Recycling, Reusing, planting trees of course, taking care of our natural resources. In one word BE RESPONSIBLE!
            And if this will be done, we could live in the PLANET EARTH as if it was new..

EQUALITY

           We all know that we live in a world of inequality. Discrimination or unfair judgement of our fellowmen is everywhere, in our country, municipality or simply even in our neighborhood.
           We all wanted that our rights would be given to us, equal opportunities for each and every one of us, but, we don't live in a world as we want it to be. Instead, we are living in a world of discrimination. We are judging others. We discriminate the female, we discriminate the disable ones, the old ones, WE UNDERESTIMATE what they can do.
            Everyone wants to live in a world of equality, where injustice never exists and the rights of every single individual would be given. It would be great to live in a world like that right? Of course it is, so why let this be just a hope, if we can live in world like that. Forget gender stereotypes, and gender equality, whether men or women, every one of us can do a certain task, gender is not a big deal. Old and young should share what they had, the old ones should give the young ones  the lessons they learned through their years of existence, while the young ones should share what day know about modernization. And those who are complete should not underestimate what the disabled can do.
            With this, we could live in a world with EQUAL RIGHTS, and with equality of rights we could have EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES, in lie, living, and freedom.

Global Language

              We live in planet divided into 7 continents with 196 countries in total. Each has their own cultures, beliefs, and languages. So the question is; how will we communicate to the people of other countries around the globe? Good thing there’s the English language.
                English is undeniably the leading most common language used around the globe; businessmen, big companies or governments used the English Language as their primary language. As time passes by this language is widely adopted to Asian countries, for example China or Korea.
                 It is important for us to know how to speak and use the English Language, with this language we are able to speak, share our opinions and ideas to the people of other countries. When it comes to touring in other countries where you don’t have the same language and we missed our direction, we could use it to ask for direction. English is very important for every single individual in the PLANET, it give them confidence in communicating.
