PROCESSING

The world is composed of different countries. Each country has its own territory, people,
culture, government, religion, and pro countries are interdependent on one another. Interdependence
means relying or counting on the help or assistance of another of this is food. Some countries do not
produce rice so other countries. Some countries need workers with specific employ skilled workers
from other countries. Countries relate to one another through their ambassador is the representative
of a country to another country's ambassadors and the heads of the different departments in our
country represent our country and establish trade and economic relations through their ambassadors.
We feel great to establish friendly relations with other countries. It is a consolation to know that rich
countries create programs to help the poor countries. We are thankful for the different world
organizations for the protection of human rights and for peace and unity among nations.

Sometimes we hear about human rights violations happening in other countries, too. We feel
sad when our fellow Filipinos are not treated properly or humanely in other countries. There are also

some instances when our foreign visitors are not treated well. We hope that someday everything will
be all right and there will be global harmony, world peace, and unity.

Global harmony is a state of peaceful existence and agreement resulting in unity among
countries of the world. They assist and support one another in their needs. Heads of different
countries visit other nations and share ideas on how to make their respective countries more
progressive.

International understanding is necessary among all countries in the world. English is an

international language that allows us to communicate

With other countries. We come to know their culture better and learn about their country and its
people. International understanding leads to world unity.

Fostering International Cooperation

The United Nations is an organization composed of different countries all over the world. It aims to
maintain international peace and security by settling disputes peacefully and developing friendly
relations among nations. It also aims to achieve international cooperation in solving economic, social,
cultural, and human rights problems.

The United Nations is supervised by the General Assembly. It meets regularly at least once a year. It
directs and supervises all the activities of the United Nations.

In 2007, the 62nd session of the General Assembly took place in New York where different leaders
from different countries met to deliver their reports. Every leader presented plans for education,
health care, and infrastructure.

The United Nations is one of the organizations that fosters understanding and communication among
countries. Through the presence and representation of our leaders, global trade relations are

There are many stories about people who lost their things and were lucky enough to get them
back. There are also stories of people who found items and did their best to find the owners to return
them. Many taxi drivers have experienced this. Similar stories happen in the market when buyers
return extra change given by the storekeeper.

It is possible that we, too, have also experienced what the man in our story did. We found
something and we returned it to the owner or surrendered it to the Lost and Found section.

We are aware that life is full of challenges-challenges to do what is good and challenges to
avoid doing what is bad. More often than not, it is easier to give in to temptations than to be upright.

At times, we fail to do what is right. We tell lies or make up stories, we say bad things about
others, we get something that is not ours, and we borrow things but we do not return them.
Sometimes we cheat during examinations. We ask others to do our projects but tell everyone that we
did them. We also make promises but don't fulfill them.

When we do things that are bad, we are afraid of being caught and punished. We do not feel
comfortable and we feel guilty about the things that we have done.

All these feelings will not go away until we admit our mistakes. Sometimes it is very hard for us
to accept our faults and shortcomings. When we realize our mistakes and admit them, we feel much
better. We feel good time we tell the truth because we are no longer afraid that people will about our
lies.

Honesty is telling the truth all the time. An honest person is trusted by many because they
know that he or she won't deceive them. An honest person is upright, fair, and candid in dealing with
others. He or she does not cheat or steal. He or she behaves with integrity. Integrity is uprightness of
character.

One who has integrity is one who is honest and just. Sincerity is freedom from deceit and
hypocrisy. A sincere person does not deceive the people around him or her. He or she tells only what
is true and correct. He or she is not afraid to tell what he or she really feels. His or her family and
friends value what he or she says.

Let us read a story about honesty and sincerity.

There are times when we experience difficulty in

doing our tasks. Some of them require too much effort from
us. We cannot avoid this kind of task, especially if it is part
of our responsibilities. We do it over and over again until
we succeed. In the process, we learn the techniques to
make the task easier.

Processing

Working makes us feel useful and important as a person. Let us take our parents as an example.
They work hard for us. They perform their duties in their office during the day and fulfill their
obligations to us when they come home at night. They are committed to raise us as good and
responsible persons. They persevere to achieve their goals for us no matter how difficult they may be.
We are proud of our parents for their perseverance. We are grateful to them for all their sacrifice and
hard work.

Our parents' examples inspire us to work the best way we can without complaining. There will
always be hard tasks to do but we will do them because we know that they will be helpful to us.

A work well done always gives us a feeling of fulfillment. Just like when we prepare for an
examination-we spend long hours reviewing our lessons, we give up play and television. We feel so
happy when we get good grades. We also bring joy to our parents.

Lazy people don't become successful in any endeavor. We dislike people who are lazy and easily
give up on difficult tasks. We pray that they will have the initiative to try harder and finish their work
well.

Patience is persevering on a task or project until it is finished. It means being convinced that the
task is important and would greatly benefit many people. It is completing a task not only for our
personal gain but also for the good of many.

To persevere is to work hard on any project or endeavor in spite of difficulties. Persevering people
have the courage to overcome difficulties or hindrances. Courage enables them to face problems with
calmness and determination, until they succeed.

student who tries to balance her time to meet the requirements needed for the final examinations.
She has to work on the projects needed in different subjects. She tries to make use of her time wisely
to be able to get things done.

Katherine's waterloo is Mathematics so she has to devote extra time to study the subject and be able
to master the needed skills. She sees to it that her Mathematics assignments are well done and
accomplished. She then does all her homework in other subjects and work on the projects.

Katherine loves to watch television and play computer games. But because she needs to get things
done for the finals, she sacrifices all her favorite TV shows and computer games. She attends to her
projects to meet the deadline. She extends her working time to come out with what is expected from
her at a given time.

Two days before the submission time, Katherine was able to submit all projects following the criteria
of accuracy, punctuality, neatness, resourcefulness, and creativity. The highest score for each subject
is 20 points. With her patience and perseverance, she got 20 points for all subjects except
Mathematics where she got 18 points.

Katherine was so proud and happy with the outcome. Her teacher congratulated her for her good
work.

when everyone is home. We excitedly tell our parents about our good performance in class. We also
share our problems with them. We know that they will help us
solve them. We also listen to the stories of our siblings

In school, we interact with our teachers and classmates. We consult our teachers when we do not
understand our lessons. We request our classmates to assist us when we cannot do our project. We
ask them questions about things related to schoolwork.

There are times when we get into trouble because of misunderstanding. We may commit mistakes
that may affect the people around us. Sometimes, other people may commit mistakes and we may be
adversely affected. It is in situations like these that we need to be open and show compassion for
others.

Reinforcing

It is important to maintain an open line of communication with the people we live, work, and
study with. It is through good communication that we can express everything that we feel and think
about. Communication is a two-way process. When one party talks, the other party listens. If one
gives way to the other, there will be a good exchange of ideas and opinions. Keeping the
communication line open enables us to understand one another. We are able to share, sympathize,
and cooperate with one another.

We feel comfortable talking to an open-minded person because we know that he or she truly
listens and analyzes everything that he or she hears. We are encouraged to share our feelings and
ideas with him or her. We are assured that he or she will understand us and have compassion for us.
Good communication helps in building a happy home, an enjoyable school environment, and a
cooperative community.

Let us read a story about an open-minded person.

A Compassionate Manager

Mr. Ferdie Cruz, the manager of a computer company, regularly meets with his employees to
listen and interact with them. He explains clearly the policies of his company and encourages them to
share their ideas and suggestions regarding performance improvement. He encourages employees to
carry out the company's vision-mission of delivering quality service to their customers.

During meetings and assemblies, Mr. Cruz acknowledges the achievements of his outstanding
employees. He encourages those who did not perform well to strive to do better.

Employees are given the chance to give suggestions and comments. Seminars, workshops, and
professional upliftment programs are provided for employees to enhance their performance levels.
The management also gives the employees incentives when they exceed their sales targets. This
encourages them to work even harder.

Let us also have the courage to admit our mistakes and make up for them. Let us do this so
that we may become better persons. Let us develop the attitude of being open to suggestions. Let us
look at criticisms in a positive way. Let us affirm one another's goodness by saying positive and
encouraging words. Let us be open in seeking help and advice.

In class discussions, let us feel free to ask questions if we don't understand the lesson. If we happen
to know something about the lesson that is not mentioned during the discussion, let us be generous
in sharing them with the class. Sharing one's talents, knowledge, and ideas for the success of a class
or school activity is a good example of openness.

In the community, let us give our honest opinions and criticisms about community projects and
activities. Let us be ready to give suggestions to make our community a better place to live in.

In being open, let us always remember to be tactful at all times. All our ideas should be expressed in
a polite manner. Let us ensure that our ideas will help the people around us.

Things to Do

To have peace and unity, there should be understanding among us. We can only understand one
another when we communicate our feelings, opinions, comments, suggestions, and criticisms. More
importantly, we should be open to admit our limitations and listen to the suggestions and criticisms of
the people around us, especially when these are expressed in a positive way.

A Loving God

Jesus is very prayerful. One day, after praying, he taught his

disciples how to pray and then told them this story:

“Suppose one of you has a friend. This friend goes to your house at midnight and asks you to lend
him three loaves of bread, because another friend of his came from a journey and he has no food to
offer the newcomer.

You then answer, 'Don't bother me. The door is already locked and my children are already sleeping.
I'm sorry, I can't get up and give you anything.' But having said that, you will also get up and give him
what he asks for, not only because he is your friend, but also because of his persistence and
boldness in asking.”

Jesus further said: “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be
opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; he who seeks, finds; and to him who knocks, the
door shall be opened.

The good things we do for our neighbors make God happy. Let us always remember that good
deeds are also considered as prayers. The work of mercy that we do are prayers. Examples of these
are praying for the living and the dead, visiting the sick, burying the dead, praying for the sinners,
teaching the ignorant, giving food to the hungry, giving shelter to the homeless, and giving clothes to
the poor.

As human beings, we have limitations. We are afflicted with many physical, psychological, and
spiritual ailments. There are times when even the best doctors need miracles to cure their patients.
Prayers can heal our illnesses, especially those brought about by sin.

We need graces to go to heaven. We receive these through prayers. Let us pray regularly and
wholeheartedly. Let us make it a point to pray with our family. Let us pray not only during times of
trouble or need but also during happy moments. Let us pray with honest and sincere hearts.
