THE HEART AND SOUL OF CHRISTMAS!

 Christmas is about love. Caring about another over yourself, spending the time to do the little things to make the holiday special for loved ones. Christmas is also about togetherness. Being with the people you love, laughing, sharing a meal, sharing happy memories. But what this CHRISTMAS really signifies? 

Christmas to me is a celebration, which includes spending time with my family, decorating the entire house, inside and out, and shopping, for the people I love. And to make this CHRISTMAS more elegant, we are creating such symbols. Christmas tree is one of the ciphers most easily associated with the festival of Christmas. The Christmas tree takes the pride of place in every living room of every home from Christmas and right up to New Year. Decorating a Christmas tree spells family time as it brings the whole family together right before and at Christmas time. Usually decorations start way ahead of the eve of Christmas. One can get as creative or individualistic as they want to in the process of looking after and decorating their Christmas tree. Everyone loves receiving gifts on Christmas. Children, with their innocence wait eagerly for Santa Claus to bring them gifts. In many countries children hang stockings believing that it will be filled with goodies by Santa Claus.

Christmas is about giving. Doing things for others - collecting food for the needy, helping with toy distributions to needy children. Remembering those less fortunate. Doing this with the people I love is what means the most to me.

Christmas is the coming of the Messiah.

I feel so fortunate, to have my family throughout the year, but especially, at Christmas time. When showing, my family just how much I love them and what exactly they mean to me. That is so very important to me. Christmas, for me is also about being with family, loving each other and showing each other just exactly how we all feel.

                                      MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

Act to change ...

             "Filipinos are worth dying for." Yes! as we continue to face challenges and obstacles we can do something about it. We can built a peaceful nation. But the challenge is, can we make a change without any corruption or earthly doings?

              Doing something and working as one is a success. We can reach our dreams. We cannot deny that we're living a very ungraceful and corrupted country. We must do something. It's not yet too late for us to act we are the brawn and the brains that top propel our nation.           
              This only shows that corruption can be vividly seen in the social, political and economic aspect of society.Corruption has always been a major issue in our society and in the government. Moreover, the impending progress of our country is put on hold because corruption is hindering it. One consequence of this lull in the economy’s growth is the deprivation of some basic needs of its citizens such as education. The poor quality of education and infrastructure of citizens of this Republic further undermines the prospects of liberation from the bondage of poverty. Because government resources are constrained, environment protection programs are also neglected. Given that corruption amplifies widespread poverty, the escalating rate of crimes is not surprising to hear. An example is that the problem with the increasing production of illegal drugs and prostitution can be linked solidly to corruption.
             Suggestions and solutions are open but actions are much needed the time to act is now!

"Women = Men"

            In our present time it cannot be denied that we are living in a universe where competition occurs. And one issue about this is discrimination in our society, inequity in terms of gender or status.

        Nation pledged to advanced equality, development  and peace for all women and men everywhere. Everything that man  can do it will also be a challenge to women. There is really a big change now in our society for back when we we're still living in olden days, only man can work everything. Man is working for the family. And women are doing some household chores at their own houses. There is now really a huge change. Women can now walk on with their own hands and feet.

            Through them I could relate the most important social, political and economic trends of the century. Their achievements, as well as their missteps, tell us a story of Philippines that we most often hear of in snatches, or read about in digressions. Though we are making an effort to improve women's right for equality, the Filipino dream is still yet to be achieved by many mothers, sisters, aunts, wives, and daughters.
How many times have you heard "All men are equal"? . In today's society it has been taken literally. Yes all men are created equal but are women created equal as well? Of course not, most would probably say yes but women are a minority in this country.

               Equality in education is an important issue, as gender equality guidelines improve education for both men and women. The goal of providing better education for women does not mean neglecting or suppressing men. By placing men and women on an equal level, the relatively increased valuing of women will also benefit men by informing them of the strengths, capabilities and contributions of members of the opposite sex. It may also decrease the pressure many boys feel to conform to the traditional roles, behaviors and ways of thinking. Eventually, the stereotypes may be counteracted and eliminated, so education will be more gender balanced.

              There is really a big change. Don't ever discriminate anyone.
