WHAT
LIFE? ARE THE EFFECTS OF FAITH AND PRAYER IN YOUR
Faith and prayer both give me hope, as well as assurance during difficult
times. They help keep my mind at peace and my heart at ease. Prayer works like
a miracle for me and faith strengthens that belief. Both of these provide a
resist temptations and better assess my life decisions. I believe that through
prayer, I am also able to ask God for signs and truthfully, these signs show up
when I need them the most. Once I am already able to grasp such signs, i gain
and prayer greatly help me view things different perspective. They help me deal
with life in a healthier way and also help me meditate to find peace.

Personally, yes I do continue to pray and strengthen my faith even at times when
there is no conflict or imminent danger. However, looking through most people today, I
think there are only a few who pay attention to God during ordinary and happy times.
Most people only remember and devote themselves to prayer whenever they face
difficulties in life. For instance, this pandemic has evidently brought a lot of people
back to God. Many of them have only appreciated the gift of life by now, when things
are most unpredictable for the whole nation. Probably without this pandemic, many
will still not realize how a simple 'Thank you, God' and 'I love you' can make a big
difference. With that being said, we should always be reminded not to see faith and
prayer as our last resort to be freed from life's challenges. High or low, happy or sad,
be sure to talk to God in prayer. Express your faith in actions and be grateful even for

SEX AND CONTRACEPTION
To be pro-life or pro-choice has been a debate since the late nineteenth century. Despite such
history, why does contraception still seem closeted for some people nowadays? This is because many
of the reasons for incorrect or nonuse of contraceptives are subconscious which leads to less
recognition and acknowledgment of the said act. However substantially speaking, contraception has
long been a hot topic for people who use it and more so, for people who don’t. Putting it bluntly,
contraception came from the mashed word contra and concepcion – meaning “against conception”. In
fact, it has been around for thousands of years. But why are people still ashamed to use it, or even
Contraceptive innovations have had a remarkable impact on modern societies in the past five
decades. These innovations paved the way to a cultural revolution leading to more awareness and
social acceptance. Reflecting from these innovations clearly show that contraception have improved
women's childbearing and career opportunities, allowing them to take contraceptives and plan
fertility independently of their partner or spouse. Significantly, it increased female human capital
accumulation, labor market options, and incomes. Furthermore, contraception has also drastically
reduced the average number of offspring per woman in countries where they are used. Modern
families have greater living standards and can offer better for each child because birth control made
its way for having fewer mouths to feed. On a global scale, contraceptives play a key role in
stabilizing the human population and curb the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. Although
several positive impacts have been brought by contraceptives, it does have a fair share of negative
impacts. Contraception such as the use of birth control pills, condoms, and other forms have sparked
a sexual revolution in today’s modern world. It allowed men and women to have sex for leisure
rather than procreation. This has also affected the ability of both men and women to make
decisions about building families, the number of children they’ll have, and when they would
have them.

ACTIVITY 2
Apart from this, many cultural, social, and educational forces are still not able to adapt to the modern
revolution on contraception. All these forces include poverty, ignorance, fear and anxiety, shame and
embarrassment, and the feeling that family planning programs are a form of black genocide.
Specifically, here in the Philippines, where I think that religion shields most youth from being informed
of such social issue. The strong influence of the aforementioned forces continues to pose threats to
increased maternal mortality, low female schooling rates, and high fertility rates which are all common
in countries where there is little or no access to birth control. I am able to perceive that these are still
very rampant along with the stigma, religious beliefs, and myths about contraception. Many people
who want to avoid pregnancy are still not taking contraception, despite the enormous growth of
family-planning alternatives globally in recent decades. I believe this includes most women at my age
range who are mostly affected and misinformed about sex and contraception. Given the complex
barriers to access, including religious views, politics, misconceptions, stigma, and other social factors,
the impact of contraceptives will surely vary from one place to another.
Overall, it is evidently reflective that sex and contraception brought more freedom of choice and less
constrained family planning. When women can plan when to have children and how many to have,
they shoulder a vast number of advantages for the whole society’s welfare. I also come to realize
that it grants an assurance for women to practice their right on investing in their reproductive
healthcare. With access to reliable contraception, women are given more control over their bodies and
are saved from the untimely obligations of marrying early. In return, this also lowers the risk of
being immersed in low-life human capital and education, as well as professional degrees. Even though
the entire concept of sex and birth control has raised questions about personal freedom, liberal and
conservative values, government intervention, religion and politics, and ideas regarding
sexual morality and social welfare, it has still undeniably offered a vast array of benefits
for the entire human population. Sex and contraception has not only completely
revolutionized women’s lives but also lifted the balance of power between men and women.

As a child whose parents are working abroad, it saddens me to think of the days
when all I ever want is a bear hug from them. I envy children who are picked up by their
parents from school and a complete family to enjoy with during supposedly memorable
life events. I believe this setup can greatly affect me emotionally and make me feel as if
I am neglected and unloved. Though I am grateful for parents who are willing to
sacrifice away from me just to provide for my needs, I mostly desire of a complete
family living together under the same roof. It feels nice to have your mother take
care of you when you're sick and a father who would comfort you with a big hug
when you cry. Material things are nice but the presence of my parents
are priceless. We can never take back all the happy moments and time
we could have enjoyed together.

As a child whose parents are separated, I can only imagine the emptiness I would
feel everytime I see a complete family. It is not and will never be easy to live in an
incomplete family. However, if I happen to witness how much my parents have tried but
failed numerous times to save their relationship, I believe I have to work with acceptance.
I have to acknowledge that things will only worsen when they are forced and dishonest.
So, accepting the reality that my parents are no longer and will no longer be together is
a huge step towards healing. However, knowing that they are already separated will
also make me expect and demand healthy co-parenting situations despite their
separation. I would not want to live and I cannot imagine myself coping with an
unhealthy broken family. I know that it will be difficult to adjust and
live with many what-if's but I still want to put my trust in the love that
both my parents have for me. I will still continue to have hope that no
matter how incomplete our family may be, we are not broken inside.

As a parent, I deeply believe in the principle of liberalism and the full advantage of
allowing my children to have full access to the internet and media. However, 'full
advantage' does not mean that I will leave them misguided and totally on their own.
I am very much aware of how vast information, as well as contents travel through the
internet and the media which is why it can be very dangerous to handle. Thus, I need
to make sure that my children will observe appropriate boundaries when using these
platforms. I will make sure to establish a connection with them in a
sense that they should trust me more than any other people from the
internet. I will allow them to use social media to have fun, make and
maintain friendships, share interests, explore identities and develop relationships.

It is every parents dream to have his or her child grow up into a responsible person.
But from a perspective of a parent who is engaged in illegal activities, I hate to recognize
the fact that I can most likely lead my children to a high risk for poor outcomes,
including conduct problems, substance abuse, mental health disorders, and poor
academic achievement. It can also cause them to have psychological disorders,
depression and low self-esteem, or worse, make them more prone to criminal behaviors.
Generally, I think that engaging in illegal activities whether for the sole purpose
of providing for my children is still considered as bad parenting. Sooner
or later, they will come to know the illegal acts I have done and they
would hate me for it. They might even rebel against me and the whole family,
feeling ashamed and betrayed.

ACTIVITY 4
For a special friend, I am willing to show my love by staying through thick and
thin. I commit myself to check on him/her from time to time to make sure that
he/she is not dealing with the heaviest burdens on her own. I will show start to show
my love by simply listening to his/her frustrations and helping him/her whenever
he/she allows me to. I will always respect his/her decision to take time alone in
figuring things out but I will always be ready to lend a helping hand.
Someone I do not know but can use my help can be anyone in the streets,
at school, in the mall, or any other places I will soon go to. To that someone, I
will show kindness by simply brightening up their day with a smile, or saying
thank you for letting me pass through first, or even helping them open the
door. I can also offer to help someone choose which color suits them
most when they're having a hard time to pick one and also help find
find their way to somewhere I know that they're headed
to. Showing kindness to someone I do not know can also
come off in the way I send a simple message to comfort
them once I see their rant or depressive
emotional posts and even offer advice if they
would like to hear such thing. These are only
some of the things I can do to show care and
love for other people.

ACTIVITY 5
Thoughts are powerful and fascinating at the same time. The story of the
bird in the hand depicts the essence of wisdom and freedom. It implies that
every time we think of something, we are attaching the same energy to ourselves.
It also tells us that we have the freedom to choose which direction and which
path to take.

ACTIVITY 6
- WALTER ANDERSON
The biggest challenge anyone can face when they take chances is that
they need to be honest with themselves. It takes a different level of courage to
accept your strengths and weaknesses, and make sure to work on them.
Whenever you want to do something, you need to be honest with how, what, and
why you want to do that something. You need to gradually figure out exactly
where things are going wrong and where exactly do you lack. It may be
difficult to accept our own shortcomings but we can only grow and improve by
going through this process. We have to establish such honesty among ourselves
just so we can reflect on the things that we are doing wrong. When we take
tough chances all by ourselves and decide to improve our life, we have to admit
our faults and be mature enough to deal with them. Once we are already brave
enough to take risks and be honest, our life can be 100 times better. The first
good thing that will happen is that we will not have the regret of not doing
that certain something and miss an opportunity even if we fail. If you fail, you
can live with the fact that it was a bad decision and get over with it. But if you
miss the chance, the uncertainty will not let you be happy. So, instead
of living in fear and anxiety, grab the chance and be open to the
reality that it can help you be the best version of yourself. Make sure
to not always play safe because taking risks is the same as taking
chances for self-growth and improvement. Plus,
always remember to be honest with yourself and the
others.
