Essay On My Culture (MOJICA, NOAH KENT)
My family doesn’t really take care of politics that seriously, because it is always like that,
even though anyone wins the election, it is always the same, and we just go with the flow and
follow the majority of people on who will be the right leader of the country and our city. We
don’t have any member in family the run in the politics, but we do have our neighbor before and
a friend of my uncle which we fully support him.
In the economy aspect for our family, we are mostly composing of breadwinners, we do
have a total of 6 family members who are working and living abroad which do help our family
here in the Philippines, my mother is one of them, she already a citizen in the city of Berlin,
Germany, which do help us a lot when in comes to the economy aspect of the family, which also
help me to go to school and made me currently what I am, which is a student nurse. My mother
chose to go the abroad even though I was still a kid, because the salary abroad is high compare
on what we get here in our country, and I didn’t regret or get mad at her by leaving me here in
the Philippines with my grandmother, Instead I am proud on what she did despite of being a
single mother and she manage to made me who am I right now, without my father support. We
also do have some family members which help us from the United States of America, and they
are there since I was not born and already do have their own family, despite of those, they still do
help us by sending us money monthly for our monthly expenses and such. We also have 2 family
members working in the Middle east, which are my aunt and uncle, they just recently work there
and already did help us a lot. Here in the Philippines, we don’t have anyone who is working or
doing some economical aspect, because all of our family members when they got a work,
decides to go to abroad and work there.
For the social aspect in our culture and family, we are very sociable, because all of us
here in our neighborhood are acting as one, if someone who really needs of help, we as a
neighbor do help each other, we do have a good relationship even some of our neighbors are not
in the same culture. In my culture, we are very sociable and living the life to the fullest, we do
made friends everywhere we go and I go, because that is the environment I grew up and will
always bring this kind of social aspect wherever I go.
Culture is a part of me, it cannot be removed or change that easily, I am proud on what
culture I have and what my culture is, I live with it and will die having the mindset on what my
culture is. As Zamboangueño, we do respect other cultures also, here in Zamboanga there are a
lot of culture and I do have a lot of friends with different culture and manage to learn some of
them too, and same as my friends. Culture is not a barrier which will set aside from someone to
befriend someone, culture is the way you live and not decide on who you’ll be friends with.
