II. BECOMING A GOOD FILIPINO


It’ All About Yourself!!!

Direction: Answer the following questions about “Becoming A Good Filipino” in a minimum of 5
sentences of essay. Keep your paper clean and readable.

1. How to become aware of yourself?


For me, the first step to becoming aware of yourself is listening to yourself. Measure
out what you really want or more importantly, what you really need. Our senses can give us a
deep understanding of our own and others' feelings, and of the situation in general. But these
feelings are often seen through the filter of our own conversation. Lastly, get in tune with our
feelings. This can be difficult if we are not the type to think too deeply about our feelings, which
is not too difficult for me since I keep track of what I feel more often than not.

2. How to become a Good Filipino Citizen?


In my opinion, a good Filipino citizen works for the people, not just a few. They have a
moral compass that does not change their values and priorities. A good Filipino citizen knows
the facts and uses reliable information to educate and disseminate information. They know how
to obey rules and regulations as well as maintain civic decency on the Internet and in real life. A
good citizen of the Philippines hates any political figure whose reputation in the public service
has been damaged by bribery and corruption. I am not politically aware, nor am I
knowledgeable in this part, but I do despise the fact that there are political figures who uses the
law as a weapon against his criticism and opposition. It is not in my favor to do bad things
against others. Justice must always prevail.
