1. Recall some of your defining moments in the formation of your moral character.
Did it change your personality as well as your outlook on life? How?
- When I was in grade 4 I have a classmate who’s lunch money was only 5
pesos which is enough for one biscuit that time and when we are about to
write something, he’s the only one who is not writing. He said he’s waiting
for her sister to give him his pen back since her sister borrowed it. Since I
have an extra pen I gave it to him as a present and during lunch since the
biscuit price is 6 pesos. I will not get my change and give it to him to add
in his lunch money so he can buy a biscuit and eat. What I learned from
him is to be appreciative and be grateful to what you received. Be kind
always, someone might be grateful to your act of kindness.

2. What do you think will happen to our country if our youth will be lacking the
necessary moral ascendancy? Can we still rely on them as the hope of our
motherland? Explain your answer.
- The nation will face several situations, including an increase in crime and
violence, drug addiction, sexual activity, and internet fraud, if the youth
lack moral ascendancy. If the professionals, researchers, and those in the
position band together to organize the propagation and teaching of moral
superiority to the youth, then there is yet hope.

3. Explain the relationship between individual acts and character.

- Individual acts refers to the presence of a person with unique
characteristics among a multitude, suggesting individualism and personal
attributes. The way you behave with those around you defines your
character. You are the one who decides what to do in life based on other
people and circumstances. Furthermore, as time passes and more
realizations are had in life as one ages, the characters also change.
