Self-Esteem

Have you ever been to this?

“I’m ugly”

“I have no talent”

“I’m not good in sports”

Before I was said it to myself.

     Perhaps you have even looked at yourself in the mirror and say “If ever someone loves me? Maybe a dean list in your school? An athlete or a singer? Probably everyone who has ever lived wished that they could change at least one physical feature: their nose, their height, weight and their complexion.

     If we rely on beauty, wealth, possessions, and other outward aspects of our life for self-worth we may find temporary fulfilment and happiness. In order to be happy and confident be proud to yourself who you are.

A Real Friendship

     If you have a problem or you are facing different trouble situation, who would you talk to your problem? A teacher, your boyfriend/ girlfriend or your parents? Most teenagers like to talk to their friend.

     What is a friend? There are close friendship, acquaintances, causal friendship and intimate friendship. Close friendship are developed through sharing of interests, likes and dislikes and spending time together in certain activities. We all have acquaintances, faces we recognize and people we great by name. Causal friendships happen through continued contact.

     But intimate friendships are what everyone desires and needs. These kinds of friendship are friends that stay with us no matter what happen. They listen to us in good or bad times and genuinely interested in what is best for us.

     Do you think who your friends are? Are they just acquaintances, close friend or intimate friends?

Living a Righteous Life

     We have learned that our God is the Great I am. We are awed by his power and might that compelled us into worship. But being awed is simply not enough. Our response should be the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF OUR LIVES.

     In year 2010 I attend a conference the CFC-FFL World Youth Congress. It was held at Bluroze Farm Lipa, Batangas. In this conference the talk of Living a righteous life is one of my favorite.

     I learned that righteousness is being holy, pure and upright. In the Bible, Job exhibited this character that is why considered right before the Lord. We too have a calling just like Job. We must submit our HEART, MIND AND STRENGHT to God’s authority. Also we are called to be considerate, generous and just to our FAMILY, FRIENDS AND COMMUNITY.

JOB; He love God with All heart and mind.

· Our heart should be pleasing to God.
· Our heart should be contented.
· Our heart should be humble.
· Our heart should be sincere. 

     That’s why being a good person, student, daughter are the quality to be a good son and daughter of God.

Chastity Forum

In the month of April 2012 our organization Youth for Family and Life conduct a forum deals about Chastity. Our chapter organized a LIVE PURE forum to discuss what chastity is all about and what the effect of this issue in teenagers nowadays.

What is CHASTITY?

It is the virtue which excludes or moderates the indulgence of the sexual appetite.

The virtue of chastity is self- restraint and allows us to master our sexual impulses.

The virtue of chastity seeks to permeate the passions and appetites of the senses with reason.

Chastity means the successful integration of sexuality within the person and thus the inner unity of a person in their bodily and spiritual being.

As such its motive would be the natural decency seen in the control of sexual appetite, according to the norm of reason. Such a motive springs from the dignity of human nature which without this rational sway is degraded to brutish levels.

Modern day technologies have a big impact in influencing people around the world particularly the teenagers.

Teenagers Fashion

     Fashion is first and foremost a social statement for all teenagers nowadays. In fact is the outward means of expression to their peers and the rest of the world. Teenagers try to express their identity through the use of material objects.

     Among these material objects, clothing is perhaps one of the most important. Especially teenagers use clothing as a tool of reflecting their opinions, values, and characteristics, which make up a person’s identity. Teens think that it is clothing which makes them distinguished from others and allows them to be unique. Teenagers are simply exposed to all sorts of influences via media and channels, which established the so-called trend among themselves. Teens are unique and they follow different clothing styles which also convey different messages to express their self. However, even though clothing can be used as a means of expressing identity, communicating through the clothing preferences can also dangerously hamper the identity development of the teens by making them focus so much on brands, creating group pressure and causing the loss of individual characteristics.
