Our world is changing in every generation and education is on its way to progressivism and
constant development. We all know that education is ruled by humans and it is our great
responsibility to control peace, harmony and excellence in the field of transforming lives from
ignorance to maturity. As you can see on the collaged pictures above, there are different illustrations
that is showing the symbol if peace in human nature by creating a steadfast and strong relationship
with students, embracing diversity in culture and races, promoting peace programs and uplifting
innocent spirits. The greatest resource for building a culture of peace are the people themselves, for it
is through them that peaceful relationships are created. We are facing different societal conflicts and
by promoting peace education by upholding human dignity, building tolerance, resolving problems in
a timely and peaceful manner in our little way as educators and well-educated individuals, then we

 Family is the basic unit of the community. Home is where the heart of every
child develops and it is the primal foundation of the wholesome aspect of an
innocent mind. The family plays an important role in the community since it
provides social status and personal growth of people towards the environment in
general. We tend to think that schools are totally responsible for the discipline and
moral development of a learner but in fact, our parents/ guardians are the first
teachers who started this yearning understructure. Our institutions are just
instruments for us to be more educated holistically and to help us prepare for a
better future in our soon-to-be career and goals.

As a family-oriented individual, I am proud to say that my parents raised me to be

a God-fearing individual and taught me values that I have applied in my daily living
and will remain for the rest of my life. They truly gave a big impact of my whole
personal being, especially my mother who is very close to me. She's the main
reason I want to succeed in my goals and pursue a high-paying job in the future
because I want to pay double the sacrifices, they have given to me starting when
they sent me in a private school during high school even if we're experiencing
poverty that time. Even if have encountered different cultural and religious
backgrounds of my peers and classmates while studying, my parents always
taught me to respect and stand for my principles. My sister, as well, is my biggest
inspiration tin achieving and dreaming for a bigger purpose because she served to
be my role model since elementary. I am very proud of my imperfect family. They
are the source of everything that I've been working with. Even if I am suffering
physically this time due to my prevailing health issue, I still managed to work while
studying because I believe my life is very precious every second and I don't want
to waste it by showering negative thoughts and energy. I would like to conclude
that the family starts the structure of the future YOU and it is you who should
preserve that main purpose of your existence.
