Relate your learning on the nature of non-being to your life.

What is the meaning of life without purpose? If you would’ve asked me this 10-15 years ago, maybe I
would’ve not cared. During those years, I was just a “non-being”, an empty cup. In high school, people
would think that I am snobbish, but no, I was just shy. I would hide my feelings, suggestions and
opinions because I was scared of being judged and rejected. My presence was insignificant. In short, I
was nobody. When I was in college, I realized I was tired being a “nobody”. That is when I have learned
how to step out of my comfort zone. I strived hard to face my fears of being judged and stepped by
other people. Despite all my failures, I worked hard to be able to reach my goal and to be able to make
an impact. At that time, with the help of my family and friends, I learned how to open my space to be
fulfilled by other people. Through this fulfilled cup, I learned to live my purpose – that is to help and be
an inspiration and role model to many. I will always live to serve and be useful to the people who helped
me fill my empty space. And so, continuously up to this day, until the rest of my life, I will use this
fulfilled cup to help another “non-being”, an empty cup.

When cockroaches die, do they go to heaven or hell?

(Kapag ang ipis ay namatay, san sila mapupunta, sa langit o sa impyerno?)

I clearly and undeniably hate cockroaches. They are everywhere scaring people and ruining lives. They
are dirty, disgusting and creepy. They always hide in dark places and prefers living in warm areas. If you
would ask most of the people, including me - my anger towards cockroaches would make me say that
they are fit to hell. However, looking at the bright side, God would not create cockroaches without a
purpose. If they think they have lived their life and purpose happily, then we don’t have the right to
judge where they go. Remember, they are still God’s creation. God loves all the animals as much as He
loves us. Besides, they deserve to be in heaven since people just take their lives away.

If I go back in time and let my mother marry another man, is it possible for me to go back to the
present?

This is the reason why we cannot go back in time. Time changes everything. It is the only thing that
moves forward without looking back. And so, no person can undone what is already done. Moreover, if
time allows us to travel back in time, then the present and future will always be changing and inexistent.
We will never enjoy looking forward. It will always be going back and changing the future. Thus, we will
never learn from our mistakes. This question teaches us to always live life to the fullest. Through this,
we will all have no regrets and missed chances.
