Activity 2.2  

Directions: Answer the following questions cogently but honestly. Write your answers in the 
space provided. 

1 How would you describe your self? 

Ans: I am that kind of person who didn’t want to be burden by someone. I wanted to be
cared and valued for. I sacrificed myself for the sake of making other people happy. I
am worthwhile, its not other people think who am I but because I exist. My thoughts
matter, my feelings matter, and with or without anyone’s permission I will continue to
be who I am. I choose to make my self-care priority because at the end I choose
“ME”.

. 2. What are the influences of family in your development as an individual? 

Ans: Sharing a close bond of my family, can be one of the greatest part of my life. I am
luckily that I have a parents who are willing to instruct and influence me in such a good
way. My parents influences me on the development of social, have to make friends
and learn how to trust, parenting practices. In particularly, parental involvement play an
important roles as part of our development as an individual person.

3. Think of a time when you felt you were “true self”. What made you think you were truly who
you  are during this time of your life? 

Ans: When I become my own bestfriend. Every day I have to learn to become my own
bestfriend because there were many nights that I spent crying myself to sleep, and
lonely with almost every given heartache. Over time I realized that I had to learn to
comfort myself to overcome my pain. It’s a process and I’m still learning how to do it but
I’ve gotten so much better. And all can I say that I am my own bestfriend. Treat Yourself
because you deserve the same love you give to others.

4. Following the question above,can you provide a time when you felt you were not living your 
“true self”? Why did you have to livr s life like that? What did you do about it? 

Ans: I’m afraid to discover some things that may hurt me. When you’re faking up with
someonejust to hide your true feelings. I hate the fact that people think that I am strong
and capable to handle my problems but in reality I’m weak and that’s how I felt not
living in my true self. Because I needed to live like that, maybe I may not find my
happiness again but all I want to do is to look at the world and enjoy my life relentlessly
even tho my life isn’t the joyful one.

5. What social pressures help you shape yourself? Would you have wanted it otherwise?

Ans: My social pressure helps me to shape myself, I wanted to be an individual and

unique. So, I decided to dance to the beat and go with the flow of the sound. I know
there is a lot of social pressure placed on success, and it affects me to remind myself
to push myself little by little so that I could live with the best I could be.

6. What aspects of your self do you think may be changed or would like to change? 
Ans: If I given a chance to change myself, maybe I should stick with “please stop being
so hard to yourself” I don’t deserve to hurt all the time ( I mean us, we don’t deserve to
be hurt). I wanna change my thoughts too, not even in the negative voices in my head
that can may think any less or drag me. I have understood that it’s okay not to be okay
but it also to remember that nothing you are going through is permanent and everything
will be okay. And also I wanna say to myself that I am perfect exactly the way I am and
nothing can convince me.
