BRIEF INTRODUCTION
An outline is a map of your essay. It shows what information each section or
paragraph will contain, and in what order. Most outlines use numbers and/or
bullet points to arrange information and convey points.

KEYPOINTS
Why create an outline?
• Outlining is a tool we use in the writing process to help organize our ideas,
visualize our paper’s potential structure, and to further flesh out and develop
points.
• It allows the writer to understand how he or she will connect information to
support the thesis statement and the claims of the paper.
• An outline provides the writer with a space to consider ideas easily without
needing to write complete paragraphs or sentences.

TWO TYPES OF OUTLINE:

1. Topic Outline
2. Sentence outline
• uses keyword or phrases o uses complete sentences
• commonly used o shows exactly what you will
• concise say about each mini-topic.
• easier to write and o expresses the specific and
understand complete idea that that section of
the paper will cover as part of
proving the overall thesis.

 Covid 19, Quarantine life and lessons for humanity
Coronavirus is all over the news, and seriously, if you have anxiety with all
the covid 19 updates happening, please do not read on.
The coronavirus hit us by surprise, and consumed us within months.
Nobody predicted that it would kill so many people, force countries to lockdown,
shut schools and public places and put our life on hold. It hit us and now it's
everywhere. It made the whole world bleed, and spreading like wildfire.
During this chaos, we then realize the weight of humanity, the implications
of our actions and how we all are connected. While we wait for borders to be
opened, so that we can go back home in the comfort of our bed, we hear the shouts
of refugees louder, we 'empathize' with those who have been uprooted from their
home, and force to flee, we understand their pain and suffering because we know
how it feels. '
We know that we share only religion that is humanity, and this crisis is
bringing humanity out of people. The world is changing, it is healing, there is light
at the end of the tunnel. Pollution is being cleared off, the equilibrium is being
restored, and at the end of this, the world will heal. There are so many lessons of
humanity to take on from there: racism, health, love and how to embrace
uncertainty and make something out of it!
And the people stayed home. And read books, and listened, and rested, and
exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and
were still. And listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, some danced.
Some met their shadows. And the people began to think differently. And the people
healed. And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless, and
heartless ways, the earth began to heal. And when the danger passed, and the
people joined together again, they grieved their losses, and made new choices, and
dreamed new images, and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully, as they
had been healed.

Directions: Answer the question below. Then, write your answer inside the hearts

BRIEF INTRODUCTION
About the Author
 Anita Sayoc Meily is a devoted wife and woman with a gift for words. She
received the “Gintong Ina Award for Journalism” in 1983 and the “Catholic Authors
Award” in 1989. Her book, And Life Goes On, collects her articles, including the
ones from the column she shared with her husband, Joe Meily, “Joe and Annie:
Husband and Wife Speak” in Panorama magazine. They were involved in marriage
encounter program, counselling couples, with an emphasis on values to deepen

A Cheerleader in the Game of Life

By: Anita S. Meily
One of the most heartwarming complements I received came from a friend. “I feel
so good whenever I talk to you, “she said. “You’re so upbeat that you manage to build
up my spirits!” I treasured that statement because it came at a time when myself is
feeling low.
I could not pinpoint the cause of my depression. I had no big problem or misfortune
confronting me. But I just felt discouragement and apathy setting in. then came a talk
with my friend. What a difference it made!
All of us need encouragement at one time or another. Likewise, each one of us is capable
of lifting up the spirits of a fellow human being. If we only take the time and make effort
to do so.
Pause and answer the following question:
1. How can we lift up the spirit of fellow human being? What are the most
heartwarming compliments that you can give to a friend?
__________________________________________________________________________________

Affirmation is making the other person feel he is okay. Married couples, parents, and
teachers are in a good position to do this by acknowledging the goodness of their spouse,
child or student.
The best example of affirmation is the behavior of a pet dog when you get home. Even if
you made a fool of yourself out there, even if you’re making a mess of your life, the
moment you walk in the door, he is just happy to see you.
Validation is acceptance of feelings of another as normal. How often we mean to console
a spouse, child or a friend, yet we unwillingly reject their feelings by telling them to stop
feeling in a certain way. For example, a child screams because her art work was spoiled
by a younger sibling. Instead of saying “Don’t get mad. She’s only a child,” The mother
can, perhaps, say, “That’s really an awful thing to happen after you put too much work
into it. I’ll tell your sister how hurt you with what she did.”
Pause and answer the following question:
2. What is meant by Affirmation and Validation as explained in the selection?
__________________________________________________________________________________

Empathy is feeling as the other person feels by placing oneself in the position of the
other. This type of encouragement is largely expressed through nonverbal means.
With a spoken word or nonverbal language -a pat on a shoulder or a lift of the eyebrow,
a smile or a frown- we can either buid up or put down a person. It take so little to cheer
on a fellow traveler along the road of life. So be a cheerleader in this game of life! It
benefits both the giver of cheer and the cheered.
Pause and answer the following question:
3. How can one encourage a person through nonverbal language? What do you call
this kind of feeling?
_________________________________________________________________________________

b. In a broken family?
c. Involved in prohibited drug case?
