I Love Living Life. I Am Happy.

This video was shared by Mam Winnie Amores during our Personal encounter activity last September 11, 2011. One statement she told us “There’s no perfect in this world but you are created perfectly just the way you are!” No matter what you look like, where you came from, how you have been brought up to this world you are still perfect.

We are still blessed more than anything we knew because we are still complete physically. We should be thankful of the things what we have now and stop complaining on what we don’t have. 


It was one of the best activities we had for this semester! Thank you to our mentors and to our personal coach as well!

Creed

Use this in your work or when you go to school, review it often to ground yourself and to remind why I want to be a social worker, why I became a social worker.


I respect the dignity of the individual human personality as the basis for all social relationships.
I have faith in the ultimate capacity of the common man to advance toward higher goals.
I shall base my relationships with others on their qualities as individual human beings, without distinction as to race or creed or color or economic or social status.
I stand ready to sacrifice my own immediate interests when they conflict with the ultimate good of all.
I recognize that my greatest gift to another person may be an opportunity for him to develop and exercise his own capacities.
I shall not invade the personal affairs of another individual without his consent, except in an emergency I must act to prevent injury to him or to others.
I believe that an individual's greatest pride, as well as his greatest contribution to society, may lie in the ways in which he is different from me and from others, rather than in the ways in which he conforms to the crowd.
I shall therefore accept these differences and endeavor to build a useful relationship upon them.
I shall always base my opinion of another person on a genuine attempt to understand him - to understand not merely his words, but the man himself and his whole situation and what it means to him. As a first essential to the understanding of others,
I shall constantly seek a deeper understanding and control of myself and of my attitudes and prejudices which may affect my relationships."
