A Reflection of Desiderata

What is happiness for you?

Happiness for me is, when you're free from stress like drinking coffee at the mountains and enjoying the breeze. I'am thoroughly more of a troglodyte person, I enjoy being this type because I don't really want to deal with people, just peace even though its just a few minutes I'm already satisfied because I love the feeling that nothing burdens weighing on my mind.

Which of the lessons in the poem do you need to learn? Why?

"Be yourself". If people can't accept you then accept yourself. You don't need to let anyone that you are beautiful, talented, skillful, you're good at that, you're good at this, let yourself tell you that. We all know that acceptance is hard like being accepted for your flaws is hard. But at the end of the day I'am who I'am if they can't accept that well that's okay because I have a few people that accepts me, I don't need a lot of people to accept me a few is enough. Each of us is born different, all of us have different abilities, talents, skills. So be different live on your own way or happiness and live to be yourself not anyone else.

Does the poem help you express or resolve your personal struggles/conflicts? How?

It didn't really help me on my personal struggles but it made me realize a little thing about people around me.
In the end everyone just need some understanding in each others problems even though you can't relate it so we can know better of ourselves.

Bakit Tayo Nanghuhusga? Maraming tao ang hinuhusgahan ng mga tao. Hinuhusgahan nila ang isang tao sa pamamagitan lamang ng pagtingin sa kanila. Ang taong ito ay maaaring maging napakabuti ngunit dahil sila ay kumikilos o tumingin sa isang tiyak na paraan ng isang tao ay maaaring hatulan sila ng mali. Mayroong mga tao na napopoot sa isang tao nang hindi kahit na nagkakaroon ng pagkakataon na makilala ang mga ito. Maaari silang mainggit sa kanila, at iba pa. Ang ilang mga tao ay hahatulan ng isang tao dahil ang iba ay ginagawa ito. Kung hindi gusto ng ibang tao ang taong ito, dapat may mali sa kanila. Nagsisimula rin silang magustuhan ang tao. Ang taong ito ay makikinig sa mga taong nakakasalamuha nila. Ang tao ay sumimangot sa isang taong walang kasalanan at naniniwala sa lahat ng sinasabi ng iba. Kung ang paghusga ay nagawa upang matulungan ang isang tao na makita ang kanilang mga mali at makabalik ng tama, ginawa ito sa tamang paraan. Hinuhusgahan mo ang isang tao s...

Trojan War

Trojan War On what I've learned war is a situation or period of fighting between two sides that have a goal and that is victory over the other side. Sometimes war is not the answer when it comes to owning a land or arguments, but unlike in the trojan war everything is different. The Trojan War was waged against the city of Troy by the Achaeans. The Trojan War is the most important battle in the Greek mythology it  started as a way for Zeus to reduce the ever-increasing population of humanity and, more practically, as an expedition to reclaim Helen, wife of Menelaos, King of Sparta and brother of Agamemnon. In conclusion sometimes war is not the answer and we have to be careful on the things we do or say because it might hurt others or start a fight.
