SPIRITUAL SELF by: Krishna Mae C. Ortega Religiosity or Spirituality? Are you religious or spiritual? How?
I consider myself more a spiritual person
more thana Religious person. I want my focus to be more on my self and to the people around me rather than any other God. I want to be a better person becausethat is how should the people be and not just for the sake of God and the life after death. Meaning centered-life: What am I here for? If no idea yet, what can I do to create my own purpose?
My foccus right now is how can I do better to be the
person I want to be in the future. Because I vision my family’s future more than mine. I want to be better for the sake of them but at the same time I want to live for myself and not just for my family. Superstitious There are a lot of superstitious that was passed on especially our grandparents. The most strict superstitous is at the funeral, first is dont wear red, don’t bring home the food that is served in the funeral and many more. I personally do not believe in those superstitious but I still practice them. There is none to lose and but I think those superstitious will forever live in our culture and beliefs.
