10 years from now, Madi I hope you were able to achieve your goals and aspirations in life. Such as one passing the CPA board exam and passing the law board exam to be able to work as a Corporate Lawyer. But you know what, even if you didn’t achieve such things it’s okay don’t dwell too much on it as it probably has it reasons on why it happened🙈.

Enough on academics, one last thing i wanna forward on is take care of your parents, I know that going onto an adulthood can change lots of things to the point you won't have time for yourself or for your family but please do find a way to spend time with your parents. Find time and not regret things💕.

Lastly, if u ever find yourself discerning through your decisions, listen to this song while you're discerning. My top 1 comfort song.

-Madi✈️

I was introduced to the world on June 30, 2008. This stage of my life feels like a fever dream. I can barely recall or recognize any of the events that happened. However, my mom has shared stories about how I was as an infant. She described my physical self as a tiny little blob who cried non-stop. She even joked that I looked like one of those water bubbles from a SpongeBob episode. She also told me that I was incredibly milk-hungry, so much so that her milk would always run out because I wouldn’t stop feeding!

# data[].attributes.body
Even if I kept trying to find answers from my mom, she would always respond with “you’ll know pag matanda ka na , you have to explore and do things by yourself”. and this struck me as a kid, my mom gave me the freedom to make mistakes but was also there with me to guide me to fix those mistakes. And because of this I was able to make decisions and control myself easily, in the context of self concept I was able to reflect and improve on my inner self/psychological self

Because of my sociable nature, I was able to build meaningful connections, and with those connections came valuable opportunities. I was invited to participate in various events such as quiz bees, peer communities, and leadership programs. I earned several awards and was placed in the top section of our school. This was the point when I truly began to recognize my competent self  and believe in my capabilities as a student.

During this stage of my life, my inner self felt deeply grateful that I had turned my life in this direction. I was genuinely satisfied with the achievements I had earned and the growth I had experienced, not just academically, but also personally. For the first time, it felt like I was becoming the person I was meant to be. Despite the insecurities I still carried, I stayed focused and driven. All I hoped for was to graduate and make my parents proud. That was my biggest motivation—to see their smiles, knowing that all their sacrifices were worth it.

Seeing the results from my WW1, I can't believe I changed from being an Introvert into an Extrovert.

# data[].attributes.body

1. In what way is the person you posted special to you? Can you say that you love them?

The people shown in the picture above are very close to me and are among those I turn to whenever life feels tough. They never fail to remind me of my worth and encourage me to keep going no matter how hard things get. That’s why they hold such a special place in my heart . That's why without a doubt, I can say that I deeply love and cherish them because they are my pillars of strength, my constant source of joy, and my greatest support system through every challenge I face. Life may not always be easy, but with them beside me, I know I can overcome anything.

2. What lessons did you learn from them about love and relationships in general?

Through them I learned that true love and relationship isn’t measured by how much you receive, but by how much you’re willing to give without expecting anything in return. And thus through them, I realized that love grows stronger when it’s nurtured with trust, respect, and sincerity.

3. What type of love according to Robert Sternberg’s Triangular Theory of Love do you think you have with the people in the picture? Why can you say so?

According to Robert Sternberg, a combination of intimacy, passion, and commitment results in consummate love. For these people in the picture, my relationship with them shows that kind of love because we share a strong bond filled with care, trust, and support. Although we may not have romantic love, but them being always there for me through good and bad times shows that our connection together is real and deep and that’s what makes our relationship special.

4. What emotions do you usually feel when you are with the people in the picture?

When I'm with the people in the picture I feel a mix of emotions. Sometimes sad, because we can’t deny that every relationship has its downfalls, no matter how perfect it may seem. But it’s also happy and joyful, because I get to spend time with the people I love the most and share my problems with them without the fear of being judged.

5. How were they able to influence you to be the person that you are now?

They influenced me by showing that love isn’t always perfect and that you should be patient in handling it. Through their constant advice and lectures, I grew to realize that love takes time, effort, and understanding, and that it’s okay to face challenges as long as you work through them together. Therefore, I was influenced on how to handle relationships better which is to deeply and to appreciate the people around me, knowing that real love means accepting both the good and the bad with an open heart.

1. Think of the things your family does that you wish would stop because they don’t help you grow or make life harder for you

First, I wish my family would stop putting so much pressure on me, because instead of pushing me to grow, it often makes me feel anxious and like my efforts are never enough. Second, When they make comments about the people I’m close with, it hurts deeply  not only because they judge without knowing them, but also because it makes me feel like my relationships aren’t respected. And lastly, there are times when I try to explain what I’m going through, but it feels like they don’t really listen or try to understand my situation, and that leaves me feeling alone even when I’m surrounded by them. All I really want is support that builds my confidence, not stress or criticism that makes life heavier and harder to navigate.

2. Think of the things your family does that you’re grateful for but believe could be done even better.

I’m grateful that my family always wants the best for me and pushes me to do well, because it shows they care about my future,  but I think it would help even more if they balanced their expectations with understanding and patience. I also appreciate how they try to guide me by giving advice, yet sometimes I wish they would listen to my perspective first so it feels more like support and not pressure.

3. Think of the things your family gives you that you’re deeply thankful for and want to keep forever.

I’m deeply thankful for the love and support my family gives me, because it reminds me that I always have a home to return to. I appreciate that even though they sometimes put pressure on me, they also give me the freedom to enjoy life and have fun in my own way. Truly, their guidance and values have shaped who I am, and I know those lessons will stay with me forever. Most of all, I treasure the comfort and security they provide, something I hope to keep for the rest of my life.

Reflection:

How can recognizing both the challenges and blessings within your family help you grow as a person who strives for magis, to become better fory the greater good, and practice cura personalis by showing care and understanding toward each member of your family?

Recognizing both the struggles and the good in my family helps me stay grounded. It reminds me that even when things get frustrating, there’s love and effort behind it, and that pushes me to do better instead of holding grudges. It helps me aim for being magis by trying to respond with patience, understanding, and growth rather than reacting emotionally. And by seeing everyone’s flaws and strengths, I learn to practice cura personalis showing care, trying to understand where they’re coming from, and being kinder to them the way I hope they are kinder to me too.

It gave me a clearer vision of the path I want to follow. I also loved People Whom I Loved the Most because it reminded me of how important my family and friends are in shaping who I am. That topic made me realize that the people I love give me strength, motivation, and purpose in life.
