Brief Discussion:
Put this in your mind always that the human person by nature is a free being and that it
is in his nature to seek freedom. That is why every day, we are free to make choices and
perform actions to what we have chosen. Freedom is rooted in the human person’s self-
determination and exercise of intellect and freewill.
Learning Competency:
1. Realize that: a. Choices have consequences. b. Some things are given up while others are
obtained in making choices
2. Show situations that demonstrate freedom of choice and the consequences of their choices
3. Realize that intersubjectivity requires accepting differences and not imposing on others
4. Explain that authentic dialogue means accepting others even if they are different from
themselves
Task: (page 76 of the text book)

based on the one shown below.

Freedom
Reflection:
As young as you are, when would be the time that you are to free to do things, and what
are those things? In like manner, when would be the time that you are not free to do things and
what are those things? Write this in your journal.
