WORKSHEET #4
SHORT ESSAY. Read and analyze each question. Answer each item briefly but
concisely.
1. What is your own definition of the word, “bayani” or “hero?”
For me, I can define “bayani” as someone who is brave enough to fight for what is
right. This means that he or she upholds right over wrong. Also, bayani for me is someone
who is willing to sacrifice for his own bayan but this doesn’t always mean that he or she
should die. He or she is not afraid to voice out and stand up even if no one believes him or
her. I also believe that a bayani is someone who has the initiative to take action and
influence others to do that same action as well. A bayani is firm and honest to his or her
words. He or she will put those words into actions. A bayani does things not in his own
interest or benefit but that of others. This means that he or she considers the general
welfare. A bayani also embodies the values of integrity and courage. He or she should have
a strong moral principle and moral uprightness. That being said, he or she will still do the
right thing even if no one is looking. A bayani leads by example and he or she does not want
anyone to be harmed. In simple words, a bayani has a strong mind and passionate heart.
Bayani and hero are not completely the same because bayani is willing to sacrifice his own
self for others while hero does only at some extent
2. What do you think are the reasons why the concepts of bayani or kabayanihan
have shifted and evolved through the years?
The concepts of bayani and kabayanihan have shifed and evolved through the years
because as time changes, so does the people and the ways in which they perceive things.
Because of modernization, the beliefs and ideologies of the people from the past were
replaced by new ideas. In the past, a bayani is measured and defined depending on the
numbers of people he killed. We have terms like “Maniklad”, “Hangan”, “Kinaboan”, “Luto”,
and “Lunugum”. Since we are evolving, peace and unity are slowly being achieved thus, the
term “bayani” can now be called to someone who has made a big impact to his country. This
means that a bayani is someone who makes sacrifices even on his or her own little ways. To
sum it up, the very reason why those concepts evolved is because people also evolved.

3. Do you agree with Dr. Zeus Salazar that one does not need to die to become a
hero? Explain your answer.
Yes, I agree with Dr. Zeus Salazar’s statement that says, “One does not need to die
to become a hero.” Being called a hero doesn’t mean a person should die. This is a
traditional belief. For me, what counts are the things that you did for others even on your
own little ways. A hero is someone who left an impact to someone. Also, they are the people
who influenced others to do good acts. I believe that everyone has a hero within themselves.
Showing love and care to others can genuinely affect another person’s life in a different
way. After all, what is considered is the acts they did when they were alive and not the
concept of their death to become a hero.
