1. What are the great lessons that you learned from your parents?

How do you use it in your own daily life?

- Be content with little. Growing up, there were many situations when finances were tight. Now I
learned how to budget my money for the whole day or week and not to spend on things that I will not
use or need.
- Be open to receiving advice. We are constantly developing, adapting, and learning. My parents were
always willing to take on new challenges.
- Admit faults. It would be absurd of me to assert that my parents were flawless. They're not. However,
they apologize when they are wrong. work to make it right. Now when I know that I made a mistake I
take action to make it right and fix the mistake that I have done.
- Be quick to forgive. Mistakes are made and wrongs are committed. Sometimes those choices are
painful. But you just hurt yourself if you don't ask for forgiveness.
- Stay within your means. Based on their income, my parents' expenditure was always adjusted. They
showed me the importance of being thrifty when necessary. They also taught me the satisfaction of
living within my means, which is essential.

2. Compare your childhood to Rizal’s, what are your similarities and differences?
- Jose Rizal's early years can be characterized by his curiosity. He even frequented the church near his
house to watch and observe the congregation, despite not being very devout. Jose Rizal was not a
physically gifted or strong child, but his mother, who served as his first instructor, helped him develop a
strong resolve. Although not exactly, it appears that Rizal's childhood was comparable to many other
children's, including mine. Unlike Rizal, I was not physically constrained. While many kids are curious,
many of them struggle in school, including me. According to some, today's youth differ from youth in
the past. Is it the reason why these kids aren't getting the education they need? Is this the rationale
behind allowing today's kids to pursue their interests unhindered? Is it sufficient justification to
disregard what our National Hero said? If we believe that today's young are significantly different from
youth in the past, perhaps we should think about and shape our youth so they can give more and aid in
building a better future for the nation. The fact that the kids of today are different may be since we all
have flaws that prevent us from moving forward. If we don't educate and shape our youth, they won't
ever be the bright hope of our nation. Let's raise our children in the same manner as Jose Rizal, who
received his first instruction from his mother in their house. We must never forget that without us, the
next generation cannot be the bright hope of the homeland, and that without education, we are all
worthless.
