FAMILY FRIENDS COMMUNITY FAMILY To the family that I belong to their culture that I adopt to my grandfather who has a big impact to me because way back then my grandfather never allow us to go outside and because of that it affects my selfconfidence that’s why I am shy until now, but my mother help me to develop myself in terms of do good to others even though they do bad to me and also she thought me to be polite to elders and it helps my selfconfidence because I can communicate to others. FRIENDS To my friends who always there to help me when I have a problem and also to boost my self confidence in doing school work like report. They always cheer me up whenever I doubt myself and lonely. They always show that I always got their back in that way I’m more confident in front of others. COMMUNITY To the community that I belong who always say that I can’t do more that I am only with this and I should deal with it, I always look this to the positive side of my life that what I experienced is be an inspiration to me to be strong and dream high for me to achieve my goals in life. These 3 groups that I belong made me realized that I need to be strong to face my fears for me to surpass the challenges in life even in the hardships, for me to achieve my goals in life. I see that I need to do more and aim high, I should fight not only for myself but for my family also and to the people that believed in me. Because of the modern society it made me realize that I should not stick where I am instead I should not stop developing myself for me suit to the society that I belong right now, I can see that our society now is not stop in terms of developing to improved.
