ACTIVITY 5

The story of CARPENTER'S GIFT tells us that no matter how complicated life is there's always someone who's willing to help.

As you observed people these days loved to dwell with others, that's because they cannot swallow their pride and therefore stand on what they believe is right.

Honestly, I've had a situation like this before, someone betrayed me, and the saddest part was they're my friends closest friends. It's hard to handle that kinda situation, and I almost forgot the word forgiveness. But someone lead me to the right way. He opened my eyes to the reality that whatever sin others done to you don't forget to forgive them because pride and hatred couldn't help you. He was right. Now, even people around me try to destroy my well-being, and my personality and even if they love to discriminate me and my family, I won't let my anger control me, instead I will still open my doors to forgive them. As what GOD did.

In relation to the story, if I choose between the fence builder and the bridge builder, I will choose the bridge builder, because being a bridge builder is a better way to make peace and it will lead you to the right way. While a fence builder will only making things more complicated.

The carpenter did the right thing ha made a bridge instead of a fence to make the two brothers learn to forgive each other. As for me, the carpenter of my life is GOD for he showed me the good results of forgiveness.

Let us all remember that, "to err is human; to forgive is divine".

ACTIVITY 4

Education is very important for us to achieve our dreams.

I was inspired by the determination of Hani to study in an international school even if she's poor and doesn't even know how to speak English. This was not a hindrance for her to achieve her dreams, her immense immense courage and great determination helped her.

Many of the youth today don't go to school because of financial problems. there are also some students who love to do unnecessary things like, drinking liquors, smoking and taking drugs instead of focusing onto their studies. They do not think of their parents who worked hard just to send them to school.

As for me, I was really glad that my parents send me to school to continue my studies for me to be able to pursue my dreams. I will not waste this opportunity to do bad things that will make my parents upset. I will do my best to make my promises come true. Because we all know that, "it is not intelligence alone that brings success, but also the drive to succeed, the commitment to work hard, and the courage to believe in yourself."

ACTIVITY 3


"Manners are a tool to remind us of others around us."

People nowadays are thinking only of themselves. they do not even care others that surround them. It's hard to see people who doesn't have proper manners. they tend to forget saying thank you, excuse me, please and sorry, when accommodating to others. I do admit that, sometimes i forgot to say thank you but, that was a long time ago because i always bear in mind that proper manners are very important every time you deal to other people.

Let us always remember to teach our societies to gain proper manners but, before that let us be a good examples ourselves.
