Activity No. 4
My Purpose in Life: Collage Making

Just as Franki suggested, creating something (e.g., art) give you a sense of purpose, which add
meaning in to your life. Create your own collage that reflects your purpose/s in life.

Upon completion, name your piece to help convey the meaning or inspiration behind it.

I will name of my piece “A life for a Cause”. Because in our life, we have a mission, and
possibly that we have so many mission and it’s always starts by knowing our God. I believe that God
given me a life for a cause because He always reminded me that God is full of circle always love
changing every concise moment to the good.
I think and I believe that I lived here in this world to become one of the inspiration of others in
doing good, I know that I am not that good but by doing some good things I can motivate other people to
do good too. My inspiration behind my collage would be my fellow citizen, because every time that I
saw them helping, I feel so happy because they bring joy to a person’s life.
PROCESSING QUESTIONS:

1. What is the first thing that came to your mind when tasked to do the challenge?

- The first thing that comes in my mind while I’m creating my collage was who I am in the
future and what will be my significant contribution not just in my community but also in my
family’s life. I realized that our life has a purpose by thinking or visualizing of our future
because through that we will have the inspiration and motivation to pursue our dreams.

2. What was your initial feeling towards the activity? Why?

- Happy because by visualizing my life’s purpose, I suddenly came to realized that I can be a
great citizen in our community by helping other people. And I realized also that I can only do
that if I could achieve my dreams. So for now, I would be focus on my studies for me to
pursue my dreams not just for myself but for other people as well.

3. How do you feel after completing your collage?

- It made me feel so fulfilling because I can say that I have now the reason to keep on going
and do my very best in achieving my dreams. I am now feeling motivated also to do
something good for me to become one of the other’s inspiration when it comes to be a good
citizen and most especially in terms of pursuing those dreams.

4. What purposes in life did you discover from the activity?

- While I’m doing the activity, I discover some of my life’s purposes and how to make it
happen. I also discover that my life is the life of purpose by changing or impacting the other’s
life in a positive way I also believe that we are not born for nothing, there is always an end in
mind.

5. Was it difficult or easy to identify your purpose in life?

- Well I can say that sometimes it so difficult for us to identify what our life’s purpose is,
because we cannot predict our future but we can live in our dreams for us to achieve success.
It is easy for us to have a vision on those life’s purposes that we have but in order for us to
fulfill it, we to be determined and full of passion in everything that we do.

6. What made it difficult/easy for you?

- It is easy for me to made it because I found out where I good at and on how to make the
world a better place. So I think that we have to make our life whatever we want it to be in the
future and what are those goals that we have to fulfill. So we should have to figure out who
best version we could be and wants to be for us to know our life’s purpose easily and make
active steps toward it.
