Across the world there has been an imbalance between the roles of men and women in society. If we look back in the early civilization, women in particular had a difficult time being treated with the same admiration and entitlement as men. Only mean had the power to rule within a government and society, while women have been seen only as housewives. And this can be seen through many literary works of great authors such as history books.
But in our society today, the abuse against gender roles and gender equality became less an issue through the dedication of mistreated people to fight for their own rights as a fellow human beings. And because of it, there was a great impact affecting our modernized. Peace achieved and conflicts was avoided.But I guess, I can't really say that the rights if each human being is already equal nor uniform. Discrimination may still occur despite awful personalities still arise. And the impact of it can be severe. Opportunities may be wasted because of it.
To sum up, we can say that gender roles is a recurring issue but we can avoid this once again if we take an action immediately.
"While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them" - Luke 2: 6-7
The most awaited season came once again to open our hearts. It is a season in whom we people celebrate the birth of Christ the king- saviour of mankind. The question that keeps popping out in my head really drives me that what does Christmas really mean to me? Although many people have almost forgotten what Christmas really means, yes there are still plenty of young people like me knows what Christmas really is.
Lets just say that Christmas is not just about marry-making nor rejoicing. It is more than that. For me, It is the time to reflect on what's truly important about life. Showing gratitude and compassion in reconnecting with our friends, family, and old acquaintances.
But sadly to say that children nowadays are not contended. Now children wants to have the latest video games, game gadgets, cellphones and high-tech toys. Compared in the past, children were contended when given some cash, fruits, candies, a new pair of shoes or new clothes.
But we cannot question them, we have a different take on what Christmas really is. If that's how they value Christmas then.
To sum up, Christmas is how you value humility. Jesus Christ chooses to be born in a manger, do he has the power to be born in a palace because he is the king of kings to realize to be humble always regardless of our position and our status in life.
Marriage is something that is needed in order to start a family, but you cant achieved that unless you are ready to take full responsibility for having kids as parents. The nine-month pregnancy of a mother is no joke. Struggles like physical,mental, and financial trials are experienced. And it requires mutual patience and the presence of persistence.
As parents, a mother as well as father should be responsible enough for the proper care of their child in good or even in worst moments. Because a child is easily influenced by the act on how they were treated by their parents resulting social insecurities.If a child is disciplined,he or she will be inspired and become a noble person, a model, and a good example to others. That can only be mean that the role of responsible parenting plays an important role- resulting a huge impact as a human being.
Nowadays, many young people become victims of various forms of violence in our society. According to data from the year 2016 National Baseline Study on Violence against Children created by the Council for the Welfare of Children, the United Nations Children's Fund and with other government agencies and civil society organizations, three of the five Filipino youths are experiencing violence an over half of them experience in their own homes. So we cant deny the fact that not all children are in good conditions.
But in this very moment, the National Children's Month once again to take an action with the theme "ISULONG: tamang pag-aaruga para sa lahat ng bata" reminding us that we should take care the world's precious resource- Our children, the future of each nation.
