10 ARISTOTLE

Good day everyone. I will be sharing with you that during this ongoing pandemic in our country, I
realized some vital roles of being a school student and a son for my mother on what it plays in my life.
As of this pandemic, we are all lockdown in our homes and forced to stay in them. So, there's more time
to be in our home with my family. Education also shifted from face to face to online classes. Then what
are my realizations in this situation? These are as follows:

First, I learned that this pandemic helps me have more time helping my mother with household chores
and other activities. It makes our bond as a family become more vital. I used to do things I never did
before. Like, washing my own clothes. I'm now also in charge of washing our dishes every day and
cleaning my own room.

Second, I realized that being lazy will not help us but instead creates more problem than we think. I was
lazy, especially in my early online classes in school. I don't do much homework. I always say later, but
when that later comes, I will say again later, and that goes on until I didn't do it. Someone said that
Success is certainly not for the lazy. No w I became proficient and fruitful.

Lastly, I realized that my future awaits, but I need to prepare for what is it. I want to become proficient
in Software Engineer, but I need something to train me. Study hard In school will definitely help me.
What is the future of my family? Who will allow us to lift in poverty? When will we have an easier life?
Where do we get our financial need in our everyday life? All of this is my motivation to study and make
life success as possible. My dream to become a Software Engineer will help us only if I'm prepared for it
and not become lazy.

These things help me to become a better person than before. Having more time in the family while
studying hard in school and preparing for the future. I will just enjoy my life. I will continue to learn
every day. I will choose the path I will take. I will love, listen, care, respect and help. All of this will
become true because of the amazing grace of God.
