He is performing a dual action: that of an individual member of his family and that of active citizen of his community. His concern to his environment keeps on growing. He becomes aware of many things happening aroud. With his inborn potentials, he is gradually assuming he's role as a concerned member of a larger community- his country.

That Filipino is YOU.

As you know not all Filipino traits are enriching. You should know what is to accept and what is to disregard.

Searching for the real marks of a Filipino will be a challenge a joy. A journey to a legacy for our forefathers will enrich your capabilities and will direct to the traits worth appreciating and emulating . With an open mind to other influences, you will become a better person. You will realize that a love of country means being conscious to other's welfare, as well as respectful to other's rights and existing laws in the land.

There are times when people feel a need to leave their native town or city, to go to some place where “the grass looks greener.” But, once the spirit of wanderlust has passed, they get lonely again. They are starting to think of homes and their loved ones and other things left behind. They begin to feel that “there can be no place like home.”
Have you ever stopped thinking of what you own as a Filipino- your country and countrymen, the vast fields in the countryside. The mountains the rivers and the beauties of nature around. Have you told yourself that these are all yours because you are Filipinos? How do you show appreciation for your being a Filipino ?
