Kaakit-akit ang aking kagandahan ngunit
sa salami’y di masisilayan
Kaunay nga gipasalamatan ang kaayo sa uban. Labut pa,ayaw pag-abuso
sa ilang kayo; kana usa ka pamatasan sa usa ka tawo nga maisip nga usa
ka regalo tungod kay ang uban nagpakaaron-ingon ra.Cebuano
Always appreciate others’ kindness. Moreover, never abuse
their kindness; that is one behavior of a human that can be
considered a gift because others are only pretending.
The riddle tells us how to be appreciative about the things other people
do for us. This passage also wants us to keep in mind that we should
always know our boundaries as receivers of the kindness someone gives
off. For me in this way we can always have a healthy and balance
relationship towards the people around us.
Ang Alamat ni Maria Makiling
It is featured in Mount Makiling in Laguna Philippines
Mariang Makiling is said to be the mysterious fairy guarding Mount Makiling. Many blame Mariang
Makiling’s disappearance from the forest on the people who do not return her generosity. Others say
that the cutting of trees and excessive hunting of wild animals have greatly disappointed Mariang
Makiling that she refuses to come out anymore.
