Summary

Keeping in mind and heart.

Alfred Lord Tennyson once said, “I am a part of all I have met. What you are and what
you will become, therefore, is significantly linked with the people you worked with.”
The lesson brought to you by this module enables you to judge the relevance and worth
of ideas presented. With these new learning, you can easily read between the lines or beyond
the lines the points that the authors or speakers want you to ponder and empower yourselves
with. Literature with all its forms is life. Pieces of literatures embodied in this module are
considered gems to make you the best of who you are and who you will be.
May this lesson make you become an agent for nation building amidst the pandemic that
the Philippines, rather, the world has been experiencing.
