MODULE
I, YOU AND WE: RESPECTING
3 SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES
Learning Objectives
Introduction:
In this module, you will realize that living in harmony with others requires
showing respect in spite of similarities and differences. Our golden rule “Do not do
unto others, what you do not want them to do unto you” was repeatedly taught to
strengthen its impact and be a seamless part of you. This principle is a powerful
reminder for you to treat others better just like how you wanted to be treated.
As you go through life, you will be confronted with challenges of interacting and
working with other people with similar and different views, beliefs, culture and values
from you. Understanding and respecting individual differences will help you recognize
the importance of diversity and strengthen your interpersonal relationships.
Let’s Review
In the previous module, you were made to examine varied situations where
self-discipline is being practiced. You were provided with activities to help your reflect
5
on the role of self-discipline in managing personal concerns. It is the key to a well
managed and productive life ahead.
Learning the value of respect starts at home. Your family is composed of different
members performing similar or different roles and responsibilities. You may differ in
opinions, beliefs, characteristics and abilities but being united, you can overcome any
challenges and difficulties.
Note: You can include the other household members (grandmother, grandfather,
aunt, uncle, cousins). Add rows and necessary spaces when needed.

Let’s Explore This

Within every group of people, there are similarities and differences among
individuals. Some of these are obvious while others are not. It is important to recognize
and respect your similarities with and differences from the people around you in order
to strengthen your relationship with them.
Copy the Diversity Card on a clean sheet of paper. Complete the card by
writing names of the people around you (family members, relatives, friends or
neighbors) who fits in each description. You may personally identify them based on
your knowledge about them or by asking if one of the description is true to them. As
much as possible, identify different individuals for each description.

Keep in Mind
Suggested Time Allotment: 20 minutes
The concept of diversity encompasses acceptance and respect. It means
understanding that each individual is unique, and recognizing individual differences.
You might have known that there are no two people alike, but it is in our differences
that we complement each other. It is like your body that is composed of different parts
but all are important as they all serve you in different ways. You might have preferred
to be a friend to someone who is a lot similar to you or those who are different from
you for some personal reasons or preferences. We were born from different races, we
were raised from different families of varying cultures, and we all have equal rights
and privileges, of who we want to be or how we want to live, that might explain our
similarities or differences.
As people inhabiting in just one world, we are encouraged to live in harmony with
everyone. We can only possibly do it if we will always show respect for others amidst
our similarities and differences to achieve a more meaningful relations with them. Here
are a few ways that you can do:
1. Begin with an open mind. Be willing to hear and learn about others’ views,
beliefs, culture, or values. This gives you the opportunity to establish connection
with others and have a wider understanding of the world in which we live in.
2. Accept others for who they are. Acceptance is the ability to see that others
have a right to be their own unique persons. This will help you develop empathy,
a skill that will help you to better understand those who are different from you.
3. Value the differences. Appreciating our similarities and differences is vital in
creating a community that is united amidst diversity. Remember, our differences
are what make us unique and special. Together, we can do so much when our
abilities are combined.
4. Listen closely. Focus on what others are saying and sharing. Pay attention to
their emotions and try to understand where they’re coming from. We learn when
we listen to one another.
5. Seek understanding. Instead of questioning the validity of the other person’s
opinions or beliefs, ask questions and be curious. Genuinely try to understand
others and make them feel respected.
One of the best things about the world we live in is being surrounded with different
people. Instead of emphasizing our differences, embrace them, be respectful of them
and use the experience to learn and grow as a person.
