Discipline

I will share to you today the importance of this subject, Understanding Culture Society and Politics.
I have learned a lot on our society because of this subject. Like the bandwagon effect, “ito yung gingaya mo kung ano yung nasa uso”. Well, we can see that today on our society, but we cannot blame them because they do that for trend or fashion. Yes, it’s for fashion, but they need to make sure that it’s appropriate for them, “wag kang mag suot ng maliit na short kung ayaw mong ma bastos o ma judge”. “Judge” well that’s the another issue of our country, and we are the most judgemental people especially on social media. How can we solve this issue, well if a person is not wearing a proper clothes like, “yung litaw na yung kaluluwa”. Say it to him/her in a nice way, “hindi yung pinapahiya o jinujudge mo yung tao”. And another thing, if she/he is wearing like that clothes, does it affect or hurt you? “Hindi naman diba?”. Then, if your point is about concern, then jusy say it to her/him in a nice way, like what I said a while ago.
The next thing that I want to share to you is the problem on proper disposal of garbage. Well, we can say that it’s just a simple thing, but why can’t we do it properly? “bakit nagtatapon parin ang mga iba kung saan saan?”. We can’t solve this problem, even if we put a lot of trash bin everywhere, because it’s about us or the discipline of the people. We should have a discipline on our self. If we want to solve this problem, it should start from us. Like the song of Michael Jackson “Man in the Mirror”, it states there that “If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and then make a change”.
The last thing that strike me the most is when our facilitator said that “madali lang aralin yan, I memorize, pero naiintindihan niyo ba at na aapprciate ang kahalagahan nito at na aapply niyo ba sa buhay niyo?”. Well he is right because all of the students nowadays, don’t apply the lessons in their life and sometimes they just review for the sake of quizzes or exams. So what do we need to do as a student? We just need to do what our facilitator said. We don’t need to memorize such things, but we need to open our heart and mind to appreciate our lessons during discussions.
