"Choice Of Life"

          In this generation which is the 21st century everything is changing as well as the gender of a person. LGBTQIA+ is a community where you don't belong with the male and female category. It is a community where you define your gender differently from male and female.  There's is so-called "coming out". This is a way of unveiling your true self to others. This is a trend nowadays especially the world is becoming more liberated which people could show what they really are.

           One of the examples is the letter of Michael. The letter that he made for his mom was a coming out letter which in that letter, stated that he is homosexual.

             From what I felt while reading the letter of Michael is that I felt pityness for him and somewhat emotional as he was keeping his true gender for a long time. His situation is difficult 'cause as he grows, he faced "gender discrimination" which means that he was treated badly by people in a manner that it hurts his feelings. Gender discrimination is constant especially to those people who are homophobics.

             The social reality depicted Michael's letter is "gender discrimination" wherein a person's gender really matters a lot. Revealing your true self is not easy that's why there's always a right time for everything, meaning let your confidence get full and brave enough to face any reaction or opinions of people. What really matters is your intention to people. Let them hate as haters will always hate.

              To help people who are the same as the situation of Michael is to cheer them up and listen to their feelings. Being optimistic is one way to gather confidence with ease. Be there to those people who have this kind of problem 'cause I truly believe in good karma in which if you do the good thing, good thing will happen to you. Live your life to the fullest as you choose what life you wanted to have and make sure you don't stomp someone's life or that will make you regret soon.
           

         

"Essence of Family In My Teenage Life"

    Essence of family In my teenage life is that I'm thankful to Him to have a family who loves me unconditionally and supported me everything that I've love to do in my life. My family is the gift from God and I'm fortunate to have them. Whenever we feel down and bombarded with problems, My family always stay optimistic and always think that problems are gonna pass by and everything has a reason. I truly believe that family is essential for us to continue to live. 

      Family is the people who are with you in your ups and downs of your life. They are the people who supported, nurtured and disciplined you and shaped you to become a better person. Family day is a day where you could spend time and show your talents and your family's talents to everyone. Asian College of Technology held an event which is the "Family day" . On that day a lot of things happened aside from eating luscious food, we also have dance competition which includes the parents. For me, that day was awesome 'cause everyone was filled in with euphoric spirits. I had a lot of realization that day. Family does not only includes your relatives or people who have the same blood line same as you but also your friends can also be your family as they share moments with you. They are also with you when you're not fine and need to talk to. I'm also thankful to have them.

   We should Cherish moments with our families 'cause life is short and only memories are permanent and can be treasured. Through this kind of event, my relationship with my mom got stronger. This is my first time dancing and competing with my mom. We should love them with all our hearts, souls and minds as they also love. Family is love, a love that is unconditionally and that will last longer than any relationships.
