Starting The Year Right

           The year 2021 has finally ended, and here we are with new chances and opportunities to come our way. Though it has brought us numerous challenges, particularly due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it has taught us valuable lessons that we may apply throughout our lives. Time indeed flies, and we must welcome the new year with a smile on our faces, forgetting the worries we have been carrying for the past year. This is another time to reflect and change things for the better, for yourself and people around you. Let us share positivity and be one as we continue our journey in life.

      Some people may consider change to be a bad thing. However, it all depends on the circumstances. People may want to change due to various reasons. People may want to change for a number of reasons. But, in my opinion, change is good as long as it does not harm people around you. I believe that people should refrain from having thoughts of what other people would think of them because they know themselves better. Just do your thing without worrying about what others might say. As we begin another year, we should be more considerate of people, especially the ones that are having a hard time. Helping one another leads to a better country and stronger bond of citizens. In addition, we must increase our awareness of our environmental condition in order to avoid unfavorable consequences that will have a long-term impact on our lives. Caring and protecting our environment is crucial for us to achieve the desired level of peace, tranquility, comfort, and quality of life. The past year has not been easy, but I take it as a lesson to not give up and to keep striving to overcome obstacles and achieve success.

           We made wonderful memories in 2021 that will forever remain in our hearts. This year, we have the chance to create new memories with both new and the same people we’ve been for the past years. We must look forward to what is still to come and continue to do good deeds to help bring smiles to people's faces. Leaving negativity and problems behind helps in obtaining peace of mind. Therefore, we must fill ourselves with positivity in order to face the year with joy and contentment.

A Time for Giving

        Our favorite time of year is nearing, and the pandemic is still present, limiting our ability to travel and meet our loved ones from various places. This will be our second time coping with the pandemic during the holiday season. Nonetheless, we Filipino Christians will not be deterred from celebrating the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Christmas lights and trees can be seen as early as September. Every Filipino, especially children, can be seen beaming with delight as they await the arrival of Christmas to receive gifts from their family and godparents. This is the time when the family gets together to celebrate and bond while enjoying the feast that has been prepared. However, because the COVID-19 Pandemic has had such a great impact on our daily lives, we are unable to be with our families and friends who come from long distances.         Christmas is one of the most important events for Christians, and it should be valued and res...

               We are all aware that the pandemic has affected how we normally live, and the education of students is no exception. In the first months of 2020, our learning was interrupted due to the rapid spread of the Covid-19. Of course, we students were upset by the news. Students had no idea when their schools would reopen. Despite the difficulties caused by the pandemic, the Philippine government did not use this as an excuse to halt the education of students. In the Philippines, education is crucial to a person’s life.         What we are experiencing as students today demonstrates the importance of education. Despite the ongoing pandemic, the Philippine government developed various approaches in order to continue the education of students. Distance learning has been introduced, which includes the use of technology, electronic devices, modules, and so on. Students were new to this approach, and some lacked the necessa...
