Nemino Discuss how being Filipino affects your “self”. How can becoming a better Filipino influence your duty to becoming a better version of yourself ? Filipinos have been described as friendly, outgoing, sensitive, easily offended, noisy, garrulous, direct, hospitable, feisty, irreverent, good natured, clever, witty, gregarious, happy, generous, easy to laugh, gracious, easy to befriend, casual, fun loving, sensitive and hospitable. Personal and family honor are stressed, as well as dignity and pride. Education is highly valued and families make great sacrifices to educate their children. Hiya (shame) is instilled in Filipinos at an early age. To be shamed is the greatest form of disgrace. Filipino culture developed over centuries in tandem with and in response to Western culture that affects to myself. Somehow being a Filipino is consider as a gift for me. It gives me strength and it gives me motivation to move myself forward even in times when life is hard. I do respect my culture and nationality because I’m proud to say that I’m a Filipino. The family is at the center of the Filipino community. Children are not expected to leave thea Rareath Ae wes Hatt! hen sbernsclvas Sat ctiied ard even aftes then. map fouples stay, with instead of sending them to a retirement home. Even with various difficulties such as poverty, Filipinos remain a happy bunch. We definitely know how to smile and laugh despite our problems. There's even a saying that goes something like, "Pag may problema ka, tawanan mo na lang" ("Just laugh about your problem"). One of the factors for this is a large support system. As with most Asian countries, the Philippines is others-oriented, which means you can easily rely on friends and extended family. Remember bigger values. Most of the times one knows how to behave if one gets out of the hot spot, the hole of tension. Most of the tempests come when one is tired and not focus enough. Nevertheless wild waves are part of the process of navigating. Going through the sea looking for some kind of new destinations is part of a quest where one will find crisis, tension, and repeated crashes is in the prison of our mind, our duty is to furnish it well I understand how deal with FARE AisHUnt PDasehOBrMadtthsRoetic moments come when I achieve something that matters, Any personal drive makes each one of us advance further but sometimes a strong energy, or extra capacity of doing things can also hurt other people. There are a lot of different ways to look at things. Not just my or your way. So it is necessary some kind of balance. Also some special understanding how to communicate inside. Moreover how to correctly manage the inner language. I am sure that is probably the biggest challenge, without a positive language and focus our internal set up gets messy and affects the rest of the body and its actions.
