last immersion was..................

Last February 27, 2009 was the end of our immersion in Pagatpat for this semester. It was though tiring because a lot of my classmates were not able to join and a lot got sick so there were just a number of us who joined our last immersion for this year. Truly the immersion helped us a lot in interacting with different kinds of people having various kinds of personalities, lifestyle and living, and it indeed created a spark that made us awake of the present status of diverse people, their day to day living away from the city making their lives simple. It was a fun-filled experience of exposing myself away from home and away from the lifestyle I used to have since I was young.....................Hope to have more immersions with more challenging activities:-]

A comment on the Holy Father's message...........

The Pope's message awakens those who are called as "digital immigrants" specifically our generation today in which a lot of highly technologized gadgets that we know definitely affects our social and traditional communication process. The Pope just wanted to tell us that in spite we're currently in modern times summons up this highly revolutionized technologies, we should not use this hitech ways of communication to destroy ones life, dignity and reputation as a human being. We should not forget the importance of respecting others by ways of respecting their rights as well. This message of the Holy Father will remain a significant challenge to everyone, not necessarily change our modern technologies right now but to bare always in mind that whatever we're doing there are always consequences behind it and we must live out ways/plans of God on everything despite of the fact that our world is developing and changing through the years......

"Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger"

Among the 8 MDG's, the goal that I underst5and more is "Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger". I choose this goal because it is an international problem that is very much alarming especially to those countries which are in great need and it is a fact that if poverty and hunger will be eradicated, the other goals will be accomplished since all of the goals are in relation with poverty. Poverty is very much common since a lot of people are striving hard everyday just to eat three times a day not considering the proper well-balanced meal with good nutrition and this is very much complex in such a way that it pushes a person to engage in prostitution, some children or teens have never gone to school because of poverty, there is a child mortality and this will push a person to engage in robbery, murder, and some other crimes related to poverty cases. This is the main reason why others couldn't access to proper health care, good sanitation of living and proper growth mentally, emotionally and spiritually thus poverty has a very huge role why certain activities are being made to happen.So in order to develop a good development worldwide, we should start on poverty line areas and everybody must be in aware, act and respond to the United Nations callings trough the adoptation of the Millennium Development Goals.
I define development based on this chosen goal of mine is that, development starts within us and later on it will go unto family, community, country and finally to the world. Development means to finally be at the top, reaching the goals of the world for the betterment and this means that the world is indeed a happy, worthy place to live in made by God. It is an enhancement towards golden ages.............
