Mga Halimbawa ng Sanaysay Tungkol sa Pamilya

Ang pamilya, masayang pamilya, ako ay ako dahil sa aking pamilya, kahalagahan ng pamilya, pagbubuo ng isang malakas na pamilya.

Ang sanaysay na ito ay galing sa seasite.niu.edu

Una sa lahat, ang isang Pilipino ay bahagi ng kanyang pamilya. Kahit siya ay doktor, manunulat, siyentipiko, o ano pa man, nananatili siyang ama o anak, pamangkin o apo, sa loob ng kanyang pamilya. Dito ay iba ang kanyang katungkulan at ang pagkakakilala sa kanya. Sa lahat ng oras ay pangunahin sa kanya ang kanyang tungkulin bilang kasapi ng isang pamilya.

Ang pinakaubod ng pamilyang Pilipino ay ang ama, ina at mga anak. Ang ama ang pinakapuno ng pamilya. Siya ang nasusunod at nagpapasya para sa pamilya. Sa kabilang dako ay tungkulin niyang pakainin, bigyan ng matitirhan at papag-aralin ang mga miyembro ng kanyang pamilya. Kaya siya ang nagtatrabaho at kumikita ng pera. Ang ina naman ang bahala sa bahay at sa pag-aalaga ng mga bata. Siya ang humahawak ng pera ng pamilya at pinagkakasya ito sa pangangailangan ng pamilya. Ang mga anak naman ay may responsibilidad rin. Sagutin nila ang mahusay na pag-aaral at ang pagtulong sa bahay.

Kasama rin sa pag-aalala ng pamilya ang lolo at lola, ang mga kapatid ng ama at ina, lalo na’t ang mga ito’y nakababata. Kadalasa’y sama-sama sa isang bahay ang lolo at lola, ang ama at ina, at ang mga anak. Kung minsa’y kapisan din ang wala pang asawang kapatid ng ama o ina. Kapag ganitong kumpleto ang pamilya’y tatlong salin-lahi ang nakatira sa iisang bahay. Tulung-tulong sila sa mga gawain at sa paghahanap-buhay.

Masinsin ding inaalala ng pamilya ang bawat kaarawan at anibersaryo. Sa mga okasyong ito ay may mga salu-salo’t pagtitipon. Ang may kaarawan o may anibersaryo ay binibigyan ng regalo. Nagbabalitaan ang pamilya at ikinukuwento ang buhay-buhay ng isa’t-isa. Gayun din ang buhay-buhay ng iba pang kamag-anak. Sa ganitong paraan, alam ng lahat ang halos lahat nang nangyayari sa iba pang pinsan o pamangkin. Masasabing tsismis ang ganitong pagbabalitaan subali’t may mabuti itong aspeto. Kung may nangangailangan ng tulong ay nalalaman kaagad ng pamilya.

Ang pagtulong ay isang malaking bahagi ng samahan ng magkakamag-anak. Sa pananaw na ito, hindi maaring umangat nang nag-iisa ang isang tao. Kailangan niya ang tulong ng kaniyang pamilya – sapagkat lubhang mahirap ang buhay sa mundo. Sa kabilang dako, ang taong may pag-aaruga sa kanyang pamilya ay kinakasiyahan ng kapalaran. Ganito halos ang nangyayari lalo na sa mga pamilya ng dukha. Nagtutulong-tulong ang mga nakababatang anak, ang ama at ina, upang mapaaral ang pinakamatanda. Pag nakatapos na ito, tungkulin naman niyang paaralin ang kanyang mga kapatid. Kung mag-aasawa man siya ay inaasahan na tutulong din ang mapapangasawa niya.

May mabuti at masamang aspeto ang ganitong tradisyon sa Pilipinas. Kung minsan ay nagsasamantala ang ibang kamag-anak. Sapagkat lagi silang may matatakbuhan ay hindi sila natututong maging responsable sa kanilang buhay. Pangalawa’y nahihirapan ang isang Pilipino na makaabot sa kanyang mga layunin sa buhay. Mangyari’y dala-dala niya ang problema ng kanyang buong pamilya.

Sa kabilang dako, ang pagtutulungang ito marahil ang pinakamatibay na sandata laban sa trahedya. Ang mga naulilang mga bata ay may maaasahan. At kahit na mahirap ang isang pamilya’y nakararaos din kahit paano. Ang pamilya rin ang nagtataguyod ng mahuhusay na pagpapahalagang sosyal. Itinataguyod nito ang pagiging responsable, ang pagtutulungan, ang pagkakaisa at pagtatangi sa isa’t-isa. Matibay din itong sanggalang laban sa tinatawag na “alienation” at iba pang karamdaman ng isip at damdamin.

Akda ni gracemariedurac14 galing sa Wattpad

Sa ating mundo ipinanganak tayo na walang kamuwang-muwang ngunit may mga taong handa tayong mahalin, alagaan at ibigay ang lahat kung anong meron sila, handang magsakripisko upang tayo’y lumaki ng maayos at may takot sa dios. Ipinapakita nila kung gaano sila kasaya noong dumating tayo sa buhay nila at ipinapadama nila kung ano ang kahulugan ng pag-ibig at pamilya.

Ang aking pamilya ang aking inspirasyon .Sila ang nagbigay sakin ng pagmamahal. Masayang masaya ako dahil sila ang naging aking pamilya. Ang king tatay at ang aking nanay ang mga taong mahalaga  sakin at ang aking mga kapatid ay ang mga taong nagpapasaya sakin . Sa ating pamilya nakakaranas tao ng mga pagsubok sa buhay ngunit pag tayo ay buo hindi tayo sumusuko  dahil alam natin sa pamilya tayo humuhugot ng lakas ng loob upang malampasan ang sakit at pagsubok na ating nararamdaman

Ipinapakita sa aking pamilya kunG gaano kahalaga ang pagmamahalan sa bawat isa. Sa pamilya nagsisimula lahat ng mga gawaing mabuti at paggalang sa ibang tao. ibinibigay nila ang ating mga pangangailangan. Ang pagmamahalan ng pamilya ay isang mahalagang bagy kung saan ibinibigay natin sa bawat isa .Ang may matatag na pamilya ay isang pundasyon ng lahat ng dakilang bansa.

Akda ni Kimberly T. Balontong

Pamilya Pera? Salapi? Luho? Wala ako niyan. Pero nag-iisa lang ang itunuturing kong kayamanan, ang aking pamilya. Kaagapay, kasalo at kadamay sa lahat ng oras o bagay. Sa lahat ng nararanasan ko, ang aking pamilya ang siyang aking nagiging sandigan. Ako ay ako dahil sa aking pamilya.

Isa-isahin mo ang iyong mga karanasan sa pamilya na iyong nakapulutan ng aral o nagkaroon ng positibong impluwensya sa iyong sarili. Sa loob ng 13 taon na aking pananatili sa mundong ito, kahit kailan di ko naranasan ang magkaroon ng buong pamilya. Dahil wala akong tatay. Pero, kahit ganoon, pinaramdam sa akin ng aking nanay at dalawa kong kuya na hindi ako nag-iisa. At ang dalawa kong kuya ang siyang nagsilbi at nagparamdam sa akin na meron akong tatay kahit papaano. Ang aking aral na napulot ay, maging kontento kung ano ang meron ka. At imbes na maghanap ng kulang mo, ituon mo ang atensyon mo sa mga bagay na meron ka. Dahil hangga’t hinahanap mo ang kulang sa’yo, lalo kang magiging malungkot.

Suriin mo rin kung paano ka inihanda o inihahanda ng iyong pamilya sa mas malaking mundo ang pakikipagkapwa. Isa-isang itala sa iyong kuwaderno ang lahat ng mahahalagang reyalisasyon tungkol dito.  Mula sa aking pagkabata, tinuruan na ako ng aking pamilya na maging magalang at mabait sa lahat ng tao. Tinuruan nila ako ng magandang asal. At kapag ako ay may pagkakamali, pinapaliwanag sa akin ng aking ina ang lahat upang aking maintindihan kung bakit niya ako dinidisiplina. Hindi sa paraang natatakot ako. Mula noon hanggang ngayon, tumatak na sa aking isip ang tamang pakikitungo sakapwa mo. At ang una kong naging paaralan ay ang aking pamilya.

Mas magiging makabuluhan kung lilikha ng isang “photo journal” sa computer gamit ang moviemaker o powerpoint. Maaari ring gumupit ng mga larawan mulasa lumang magasin at ito ang gamitin upang ipahayag ang bunga ng ginawang pagsusuri.

Ano ang iyong naging damdamin sa pagsasagawa ng gawaing ito?  Ako, ay masaya sapagkat inilalarawan ko ang aking mga karanasan at bumabalik-balik sa isip ko ang mga pangyayaring nagpatibay pa sa aming relasyon bilang pamilya. Ano ang mahalagang reyalisasyon na iyong nakuha mula sa gawaing ito?  Marami akong napagtanto habang ginagawa ito. Natutunan ko na i-share sa iba ang karanasan ko sa pamilya ko at matutong makuntento sa kung ano ang meron ka.

Bakit mahalagang maglaan ng panahon upang suriin ang iyong ugnayan sa iyong pamilya? Ipaliwanag.  Sa paglipas ng panahon, alam nating mas bumibigat at dumadami ang ating responsible bilang isang miyembro sa pamilya. Minsan sa sobra nating busy, hindi na nagkakaroon ng komunikasyon, na madalas pang nagdudulot sa pagkasira ng isang pamilya. Para sa akin, kahit papaano nabibigyan naman namin ng sapat na oras ang bawat isa. Ang sabay na pagsisimba, ay magpapatibay hindi lamang sa samahan, kundi sa pananampalataya sa Diyos.

Ano ang ibinibigay ng pamilya na tunay na nakatutulong sa isang indibidwal upang mapaunlad ang kanyang sarili tungo sa pakikipagkapwa?  Binibigyan nila ng oras ang pagdidisiplina at higit sa lahat hindi nila ito idinadaan sa pananakot at pananakit. Pero kung minsan, hindi rin mapigilan ang damdamin kaya minsan napapalo.  Pero ipinapaliwanag naman nila sa akin ng maayos. Dahil dito, natuto akong rumespeto gaya nga ng turo sa akin ng aking pamilya. Ang pagiging masiyahin ay natutuhan ko din sa kanila. Ang una kong guro ay ang aking pamilya.

Akda ni April Juanitez

Ang kahalagan ng pamilya ay mahalaga sapagkat dito nag uumpisa at dito hinuhubog ang isang pagkatao ng bawat isa. Ito ang sandigan ng bawat isa sa tuwing may problema at dito rin humuhugot ng lakas ng loob ang bawat isa kapag may dumadating na problema.

Ang ibang kabataan ay napapariwara ang buhay sa kadahilanang ang pundasyon ng kanilang pamilya ay mahina at walang pag kakaisa. Ang mga kabataan na galing sa broken family ay nasisisira ang kanilang buhay sapagkat nagrerebelde sila at natututo rin silang gumamit ng mga ipinagbabawal na gamot. Pero hindi lahat ng mga kabataan na galingbsa broken family ay napapariwara ang buhay, ang iba ay ginagamit itong inspirasyon sa buhay para maging matagumpay sila sa kanilang mga pangarap.

Mahalaga ang pamilya dahil sila ang mas higit na nakakaintindi sa atin sa mga panahong wala tayong masasandalan sa panahon ng puro problema lang ang dumarating sa buhay. Ang kahalagahan ng buong pamilya na ito ay kayang mong humarap sa mundo na buo ang iyong pagkatao dahil sa pamilya at masaya ang may buong pamilya.

Ang sanayasay na ito ay galing sa hawaii.edu

Ano ang kahulugan ng pamilya para sa inyo? May ilang taong naniniwalang ang isang pamilya’y tulad ng isang magandang kahong puno ng mga bagay na gusto nila: pagmamahal, katuwaan, pagkakaroon ng kasama (companionship) at iba pang magagandang bagay; isang kahong mabubuksan kailanma’t nais nila ng mga bagay na ito.

Marahil, mas nakakatulad ng isang walang lamang kahon ang pamilya. Nagiging maganda at makabuluhanito batay sa kung ano ang ginagawa rito ng mga tao. Kailangang sidlan muna ito ng laman ng mga tao bago may makuhang anuman mula rito. Kung nais natin ng pagmamahal at katuwaan sa ating mga pamilya, kailangang magtanim muna tayo ng pagmamahal, paglilingkod at paghikayat sa isa’t isa. Ang mga ito ang nagpapatigib sa kahon. Ang paglalabas ng higit sa isinilid natin ay magpapabasyo sa kahon sa malao’t madali.

Matatagpuan sa buong mundo ang maraming matatag na pamilya. Maaaring mayaman o mahirap sila. Maaaring iba-iba rin ang pagkakabuo nila, halimbawa:

isang ina, ama, at mga anak, o
isang ina na may isa o higit pang anak, o
mga lolo’t lolang kasama ng kanilang mga anak at apo, o
mag-asawang walang anak.

Matatatag na pamilya ang pundasyon ng lahat ng dakilang bansa. Tumutulong silang humubog ng mga taong nagiging katulad natin. Kung kailangan nating lumaking malulusogat maliligaya ang mga anak natin, mahalagang magkaroon tayo ng matatatag na pamilya.

Anim ang Katangiang Kailangan sa Pagbubuo ng Matatag na Pamilya

Para mapuno ang “kahon”, kailangang magkaroon ng sumusunod na katangian ang isang pamilya:

may pananagutan (komitment) sila sa isa’t isa;
nagpapakita ng pagpapahalaga;
may mabuting komunikasyon;
may panahong nagkakasama-sama sila;
sumusunod sa kanilang mga paniniwalang ispiritwal at umaayon sa kanilang mga pagpapahalaga;
nakakaagapay sa stress .

Pananagutan/Komitment

Makatutulong tayong lalong mapatatag ang pamilya sa pagkakaroon ng pananagutansa isa’t isa, sa pagiging tapat, sa pagsasama-sama bilang isang pangkat, at sa pag-aalaga sa isa’t isa. Maraming paraan para maipakita ang pananagutan at mapanatiling ligtas, malusog at maligaya ang pamilya. Narito ang ilan:

Maging tapat sa inyong pamilya. Bawasan ang mga aktibidad sa labas at gumugol ng mas maraming oras sa piling nila.
Tuparin ang mga pangako sa ibang miyembro ng pamilya.
Sa puntong sekswal, maging tapat sa kapareha.
Maging maaasahan. Tumawag sa bahay kung mahuhuli ka ng uwi.
Tumawag at magsabing “mahal kita” kung naglakbay ka sa malayo.
Bumuo ng mga alaalang pampamilya. Magtago ng family album na may mga retrato at kuwento.
Kapag may problema, tumawag kaninuman, sa isang kamag-anak, kaibigan o isang tagapangalaga ng kalusugan*, para matulungan kayong harapin ito.
Ano pa ang ibang paraan para maipakita ninyo ang pananagutan?

Pagpapahalaga

Kapag ipinakikita natin ang pagpapahalaga sa pamamagitan ng mga salita at gawa, naipakikita natin sa ating pamilyang pinahahalagahan at itinatangi natin sila. Maiging isipin kung gaano natin pinahahalagahan ang iba. Ngunit, hindi nila malalaman ang nararamdaman natin hangga’t hindi natin sinasabi. Maraming pamilya ang may espesyal na pagtitipon kung Araw ng mga Ina o Araw ng mga Ama upang maipadama ang pagpapahalaga sa magulang. Maraming kultura ang nagdiriwang ng mga tanging araw para parangalan ang mga bata. Narito ang ilang ideya tungkol sa ibang paraan ng pagpapakita ng pagpapahalaga:

Sabihin sa isang miyembro ng pamilya na siya ’y mahal ninyo.
Magsabi ng anumang positibo sa bawat miyembro ng pamilya araw-araw.
Sorpresahin ang isang miyembro ng pamilya (halimbawa, isang ginawang kard) kahit na walang okasyon.
Dalasan ang pagyakap sa mga miyembro ng pamilya.
Hanapin ang mabuti sa bawat miyembro ng pamilya. Sabihin ito sa kanila.
Tulungan ang isang miyembro ng pamilya sa kanyang gawain ( pagliligpit, paglalaba, paghuhugas ng pinggan, atbp.)
Maglista ng 5 bagay na gusto ninyo sa isang miyembro ng pamilya. Ibigay ang listahan sa miyembrong iyon bilang isang regalo.

Dumaraan sa panahong nagkakaproblema ang pamilya. Magagamit nila ang problema para maging lalong matatag at malapit sa isa’t isa. Kung medyo babaguhin natin ang ating pag-iisip, makikita nating ang krisis ay isang oportunidad para maging matatag. Narito ang ilang bagay na maaaring subuking kung dumating ang problema.

Mag-isip ng anumang mabuti, gaano man kasama ang sitwasyon.
Humingi ng tulong sa sinumang dumaan na sa katulad na krisis (kamag-anak, kaibigan, kapitbahay), o humingi ng payo sa mga espesyalistang gaya ng sikolohista, abogado, o tagapangalaga ng kalusugan. Tumawag sa isang crisis hotline o minister. Makatutulong silang humanang ng tutulong sa inyo.
Matutong magsama-sama bilang isang pamilya. Sa pamamagitan ng pagsasama-sama. Maliligtasan ng pamilya ang kahit pinakamahirap na problema.
Tandaang ang anumang pagbabago sa buhay — pagsilang ng isang anak, bagong trabaho o pagkataas sa tungkulin, kasal, kamatayan o pagreretiro–ay laging stressful .
Tandaang ang mga stress, problema at paghihirap ay bahagi ng buhay.
Harapin ang mga problema nang dahan-dahan. Gumawa ng listahan ng mga bagay na dapat gawin at isa-isang asikasuhin ito.
Huwag alalahanin ang mga nakalipas o ang mga bagay na wala kayong kapangyarihang kontrolin.
Manood ng isang nakakatawang sine, tumawag sa isang kaibigan, makipagkuwentuhan nang masasayang kuwento, piliting tumawa at/o umiyak.
Mag-ehersisyo para mawala ang tensiyon at matulungan kayong magrelaks. Gawin ito nang magkakasama bilang isang pamilya.

Komunikasyon

Gaano man kahirap, importante sa isang pamilyang magkaroon ng komunikasyon. Kailangan nating kausapin, pakinggan, at unawain ang isa’t isa. Kailangang may makahati tayo sa ating mga kaisipan at damdamin. Sa ganitong paraan tayo natututong magtiwala at umasa sa isa’t isa.

Araw-araw, nagbibigay ng pagkakataon ang buhay para gawin ito. Narito ang isang halimbawa:

Magbigay ng pagkakataon para mag-usap — sa paglalakad, pagkain, o habang naghuhugas ng pinggan. Pag-usapan ang mga pang-araw-araw, gayundin ang mahahalagang bagay.
Sabihin ang masasakit at nakahihiyang karanasan, gayundin ang mabubuti.
Maging isang mabuting tagapakinig — sa katandaan man o kabataan.
Kung mainisin o masyadong tahimik ang isang miyembro ng pamilya, tanungin kung ano ang problema, ngunit maging sensitibo rin kung nangangailangan ito ng pribasya.
Maging bukas-loob na magsabi kung ano ang nakaaabala sa inyong isip o kung ano ang ikinagagalit ninyo; huwag hayaang lumala ito.
Maging ispesipiko. Sabihing isa-isa ang problema. Igalang ang ideya ng bawat isa kahit hindi ninyo ito sinasang-ayunan.
Alisin ang karahasan sa pamilya. Magtalo nang walang paluan. Disiplinang walang sampalan.

Dahil masyadong marami tayong pinagkakaabalahan sa buhay, wala tayong panahong makita o makasama ang isa’t isa. Mahalagang maglaan ng panahon para magkasama-sama upang makita ang isa’t isa at maging matibay ang bigkis ng pamilya. Maraming paraan para magkasama-sama. Nakalista sa ibaba ang ilan:

Basahan ng libro o makipagkuwentuhang kasama ang mga bata bago matulog.
Patayin ang TV at maglarong magkakasama.
Gugulin ang mga holiday at espesyal na okasyon sa piling ng buong pamilya. Magplano ng mga lingguhang gawaing kalulugdan ng buong pamilya.
Paminsan-minsan, isama sa trabaho ang inyong mga anak para makita nila kung ano ang ginagawa ninyo.
Magtrabaho bilang isang pamilya sa isang proyektong pang-eskwela o pangkomunidad, gaya ng pamumulot ng basura.
Kahit isang beses isang araw, kumaing magkakasalo bilang isang pamilya.
Dumalo sa miting ng mga magulang, sa isang pangyayaring pang-isport o pang-eskuwela, at sa mga seremonyang kumikilala ng tagumpay ng isang miyembro ng pamilya.
Gawing “malaki” o “importante” ang kaarawan ng bawat isa.
Makipag-ayos sa isang mag-aalaga ng bata para makapag-date kayo ng inyong kabiyaknang kayo lamang dalawa.

Pagpapahalaga at Paniniwala

Nagsisimba man sila o hindi, may pinananaligang dakilang kabutihan o kapangyarihan sa kanilang buhay ang matatatag na pamilya. Ang pananalig na iyon ang nabibigay sa kanila ng lakas at layunin. Iniimpluwensiyahan nito ang kanilang pang-araw-araw na kaisipan at kilos. Ang sumusunod ang ilan sa mga paraan kung paano maipapatupad ng pamilya ang kanilang paniniwala:

Tratuhin ang pamilya kung paano mo tatratuhin ang sarili.
Imbitahan ang isang kaibigang makipaghapunan sa inyong pamilya.
Ipagdiwang ang religious holidays sa piling ng pamilya.
Makipagpangkat sa inyong pamilya sa pangangalaga ng kalikasan: bawasan ang mga ginagamit; muli’t muling gamitin ang ilang bagay, mag-recycle ng papel, bote, plastik at iba pang karaniwang itinatapon.
Gumamit ng kuwento sa pagtuturo sa mga anak ng pagpapahalagang gaya ng katapatan, paumanhin at pananagutan.
Magboluntir ng oras o pera sa isang kapaki-pakinabang na layuning pinaniniwalaan ninyo.
Magkakasamang magsimba o magpasalamat, sa anumang paraan ng pagsampalatayangginagawa ng inyong pamilya.
Maging modelo ng inyong pamilya sa pagsasabuhay ng inyong mga paniniwala.

Sa akong paglantaw: a photo essay, surigao city through the eyes of young people.

Youth animators play an important role in supporting the needs and recovery of children affected by Typhoon Odette in Surigao. They volunteer their time in UNICEF-supported Child-Friendly Spaces , where they lead children in play, musical and sports activities.

Child-friendly spaces provide a safe supervised space where children can play and receive psychosocial support. More than just fun and games, these spaces aim to meet the unique psychosocial needs of children who may not respond to traditional therapy after a traumatic event like a super typhoon.

To mark World Children's Day in 2022, UNICEF conducted a basic mobile photography workshop for Youth Animators from Siargao, Surigao City and Dinagat Islands. Under the mentorship and guidance of photographer Larry Monserate Piojo, 10 Youth Animators learned photography basics, including composition, photojournalism, street photography, editing and enhancement, and how to be a responsible photographer. To apply what they learned, they took photographs in several sites in Surigao City, documenting life there almost one year after Super Typhoon Odette.

These photographs tell the stories of children and people in this community, as seen through the eyes of young people.

Enduring the current — a photo essay

Inclusive development has always been the outcry of the Filipino people but these calls usually fall onto the deaf ears of the government. Uy’s photo essay features Eduardo, a fisherman in Manila Bay, whose livelihood is just one of those that are in danger as the development plan in the bay is being pushed for implementation.

Early in the morning, the coastal community of Navotas is abuzz with small fishing boats unloading their catch. But Eduardo Dabandan, 49, lugs behind him several slabs of polystyrene foam held together by wooden sticks. For the past 10 years, this contraption has served as his main source of livelihood.

Eduardo grew up in Daram, Samar Province foraging for seashells. When he became a teenager, he went with older fisherfolk to the sea. He moved with his family to Navotas in 1997 and stayed there until 2010, when they were relocated to San Jose Del Monte in Bulacan after a fire razed their house.

Like a fish taken out of water, Eduardo found few opportunities for him in Bulacan. He offered his services as a sweeper at the relocation office. At first, the family was able to make ends meet with his P200 weekly salary. After a month, he realized it was not enough and opted to move back to Navotas to resume fishing.

Whatever money he saved, he sent to his family in Bulacan to pay for their house and other needs. His wife Maricris Dela Cruz, 45, and one of his sons later followed him to Navotas to help him earn money, while four other children stayed in Bulacan.

“Ayokong mawala yung bahay namin sa Bulacan, sayang naman. Para sa mga anak ko iyon, kaya heto tiis muna dito, nakakauwi na lang kami kapag may sobrang perang pamasahe (I don’t want to lose our home in Bulacan. It’s for my children, that’s why we persevere. We go home when there’s extra money for the fare),” Eduardo said.

He’s worried about the children, knowing that it’s different without parents around them.

When he got back to fishing in Navotas, Eduardo found a sidewalk where he could hang a hammock to rest on. Later, he and Maricris built a makeshift structure that became their temporary home. He’s worried they would be asked to move again to Bulacan with the implementation of the Manila Bay Sustainable Development Master Plan (MBSDMP), which involves reclamation. Their shack is just meters away from a backhoe being used for a reclamation project on the coast.

Eduardo is among the many fisherfolk relying on Manila Bay for their day-to-day subsistence, struggling amid the blooming commercial developments around them.

They are almost invisible to the rest of Metro Manila, whose collective memory of Manila Bay usually includes the scenic sunset, people strolling or jogging on the bay walk, and sailing boats at the yacht club. This is just a portion of the key harbor that spans eight provinces. Manila Bay is a strategic location for trade, livelihood, and other non-formal economic activities.

In 2017, the National Economic and Development Authority released the Manila Bay master plan and identified projects, programs and activities for the rehabilitation and development of the bay.

It has four “pillars”: Intercoastal Zone Management Framework, Priority Measures, Enabling Environments, and Optimizing Stakeholder Engagement. According to Rex Victor Cruz, leader of the team of experts in the Manila Bay Task Force, the master plan will fail without any one of the four pillars.

Cruz however clarified that the MBSDMP was not a “complete” plan. It provides guidance to local government units, national government agencies, and other stakeholders in charge of its implementation.

Devralin Lagos, a community worker who attended two meetings to craft strategies for the master plan in 2018, said fisherfolk needed to be consulted as their livelihoods would be affected by reclamation and other projects at Manila Bay.

“Based on my experience in Cavite and Bulacan, people are unaware of the master plan,” Lagos said. “[They should be consulted] if the project really aspires to reflect the concerns of stakeholders, not only of the development designers and government.”

Cruz said the master plan was not set in stone and could still be revised in three to five years. The Manila Bay Task Force is working on three scoping studies focused on liquid and solid waste management and preventing flooding.

Eduardo is hopeful after buying a new outrigger that finally replaced his makeshift boat. The money came from life savings. For him and other fisherfolk in Navotas, every day is a challenge to protect and sustain their livelihoods. Rather than sink them, the master plan, Eduardo said, should help keep them afloat.

Navotas City’s coastal villages are part of the Manila Bay Sustainable Development Master Plan. Some 4,000 households depend on fishing.

Eduardo Dabandan, 49, has lived in Navotas since 1997, but had to relocate to Bulacan after a fire that razed their house in 2010. The lack of livelihood for fisherfolk in Bulacan forced him to return to Navotas. For more than a decade, Eduardo has used a makeshift boat made of polystyrene foam and sticks for fishing. It does not provide any kind of protection, but Eduardo knows how to swim and observe the environment and weather before going to the sea.

Eduardo carries his makeshift boat as he goes out fishing with his new outrigger. Eduardo and his son Edwin will have to travel more than 30 minutes to reach their fishing spot, where they will stay overnight hoping to catch enough fish to eat and to sell. Pollution and competition with bigger vessels have made it harder to catch fish in recent years.

After 10 years of saving money, Eduardo has bought a new boat, named after his youngest son “Marby.” The maiden voyage of “Marby” the boat brings a subtle smile to Eddie's eyes. Eddie is proud to have made both ends meet and save enough to buy a new outrigger.

Eduardo earns between P300 to P500 daily from his catch, but on a bad day, this could go down to zero. His wife Maricris Dela Cruz makes sure there’s enough money to buy food, while saving whatever they can to send to their children in Bulacan. If anything, they do not have to worry about their daily meals, because they can get what they need from the sea.

Eduardo and his family eat lunch inside their makeshift tent. In between cooking and preparing for his fishing trip later that day, what worries him is how his four children in Bulacan are coping without their parents. He smiles as he recalls how happy they were during meal time.

A backhoe used for reclamation sits idle on top of dirt. In this area alone, there are 10 families taking shelter in makeshift tents, all of them fisherfolk who depend on the sea for daily subsistence. Some families staying here are also from the relocation site in Bulacan like Eduardo’s. What they earned at the relocation site was not enough to make ends meet.

People forage for shellfish as water gets shallow during low tide along the coast of Barangay Tangos South in Navotas City. In the background, a backhoe is parked on a reclamation site. People there have been told they would need to relocate soon to give way to the development of the coast.

Fisherfolk gather krill as the sun sets. Others harvest what they can as they expect lean days ahead. According to a longtime resident, thousands of birds may be quite a sight, but is actually a bad omen to fisherfolk. The presence of these birds signifies that there will be no fish for the next couple of days. Birds flock near the shore to eat krill and fish that have surfaced because of pollution.

Traditional Filipino Family Values That Define Us

We must preserve our traditional Filipino family values for future generations as they embody the ideal blueprint for building a resilient family life and fostering social stability. These are positive values and character traits passed down to us by our ancestors, shaping our identity as a people.

Examples of Conventional Values of Filipinos

1. the virtue of self-sacrifice.

Known for their enduring and close family ties , Filipinos always put their family first. Thus, self-sacrifice is a common trait for Filipinos, as they’re willing to endure hardships to provide a better life for their family.

Nothing shows this more clearly than when we hear of heartrending stories about Filipinos dying at the hands of ruthless employers while working abroad to support families in the Philippines. It is also not uncommon to see Filipinos work themselves to the bones even when afflicted with illness and despite barely earning an income to support their loved ones.

2. Honoring our elders

A trait Filipinos possess is their respect for elders. People of all ages know how to show respect and courtesy. The use of “Po” or “Opo” is just one of the ways we show our respect for older people. Honoring our elders goes beyond how we address them, we are also duty-bound to provide care and financial support in their old age.

As well as showing respect for the elderly, we are also taught to respect older siblings and cousins by respectfully addressing them as ‘Ate’ or ‘Kuya.’

3. Filipino hospitality

The Filipino culture is characterized by a strong sense of hospitality that dates back since time immemorial and is ingrained in our DNA. Thus, Filipinos are distinguished wherever they are in the world for their exceptional warmth and hospitality.

Filipino hospitality is truly unrivaled; from serving food and drinks, and offering guests a place to stay to treating visitors like old friends, there is nothing quite like it.

4. Filipino generosity

Filipinos are known for their generosity which is evident through their tradition of sharing with family, friends, and even strangers.

We can attribute such generosity to Filipinos’ innate compassion, embodied in the phrase “malasakit sa kapwa.”

Such remarkable generosity did not go unnoticed when a prominent CNN correspondent, Anderson Cooper came to the Philippines to cover the aftermath of the strongest typhoon that ever hit the country, hurricane Yolanda.

As he was wandering through the hurricane-damaged areas, the kind gestures of the survivors touched his heart. Because despite the locals’ dilapidated makeshift shelters and meager food supply, they still offered him whatever little they had inside their humble abode.

5. Filipino ingenuity

When things get rough, Filipinos always manage to figure out a way to make things better. You can describe Filipinos as “maabilidad” or “mapamaraan”. As one iconic brand advertisement famously proclaimed, “We always find ways.”

I believe such positive traits cannot be solely credited to Filipinos’ inherent creative nature but also to their unrelenting efforts to make life better for their loved ones.

6. Filipino resilience

Filipinos are lauded for their resilience, humor, and optimistic disposition despite enduring hardships and adversity.

Thus, even in the face of life’s formidable hurdles, they remain unfazed. Their strong sense of resilience fostered by their love for family and steadfast hope in God allow them to power through adversity with courage and grace.

You would hardly see Filipinos languish in self-pity and despair but are more likely to take action and devise solutions, addressing the problem head-on rather than shrinking back from it.

7. Fear of God

The Philippines is the only country in Asia where most of its citizens adhere to Christian principles and beliefs. Thus, the profound fear and reverence for God are deeply ingrained in the hearts of our people.

Our country’s rich spiritual heritage has produced a culture steeped in hope, resilience, and a conviction that God’s grace will guide us through life. Therefore, it suffices to say that Filipinos’ resilience can largely be attributed to our strong faith in God. We turn to the Almighty for solace in times of need, fully trusting that He will help us endure life’s turbulent storms.

7. Debt of gratitude

As a people, Filipinos have this enduring adage passed on by our elders: “Ang hindi lumingon sa pinanggalingan ay di makakarating sa paroroonan”

English translation: “Anyone who fails to look back at his roots cannot achieve great success.”

Being ungrateful towards elders or people who have helped you on your journey to success is considered unethical and disrespectful, especially if the people who supported you in difficult times are in dire need of help.

8. Adaptability is one of the traditional Filipino traits that make us unique

There is perhaps no better example to demonstrate Filipinos’ remarkable adaptability and flexibility than when they work abroad. They deal with people from myriad cultures and traditions, yet, they can assimilate seamlessly into the new culture.

Such admirable ability to adapt to any culture reflects the Filipino’s firmly-held value of positivity in all circumstances and affinity for comradeship and community [pakikisama]

9. Natural empathy and compassion for others.

This has been a topic of contention even among Filipinos. Some Filipino writers think Filipinos are less compassionate than other nationalities. I beg to disagree. Filipinos aren’t all compassionate, but many of them still are.

Anthony Bourdain, one of the most famous chefs, extolled the compassion and generosity of Filipinos when he visited the country years ago. Anderson Cooper, a CNN journalist, echoed the same sentiment during the aftermath coverage of the strong typhoon Yolanda.

Despite their poverty, Filipinos would chip in however little to help a sick relative or an impoverished neighbor.

10. The Filipino work ethic

Due to their inherent commitment to quality work, Filipinos have earned a reputation as highly reliable, detail-oriented, and diligent professionals across various industries.

With their keen organizational skills, tenacity, and passion, Filipinos excel at tackling any job, whether they are engineers, nurses, entrepreneurs, or blue-collar workers.

Along with their dedication to producing excellent work, I believe their commitment to their families is one of the reasons for such exceptional work ethics. Filipinos work extremely hard for their loved ones. Their sense of duty to their families spurs them to achieve more in their careers.

Key Takeaways: Our Ethical Traditions Must Be Preserved

As Filipino traditional values go against the grain of modern societal norms, preserving them is crucial. And what better way to keep these values alive in the hearts of future generations than to lead by example.

Filipino parents should be at the forefront of preserving these positive traits for their children, ensuring our traditional Filipino family values flourish for generations to come. And one of the ways by which we can instill these Filipino values is through play. Here is a link to traditional Filipino games where children learn the virtues of respect, sportsmanship, and cooperation. ____________________________________________

Essay About Filipino Family

The family is the most important unit in our society. It is where people first learned how to communicate, interact and be a contributor to the society they are living in (Wilson, 2013).

Exemplification Essay: Growing Up In An Asian Family

As a child growing up in an Asian household, I quickly became aware of how different my parents’ style of teaching was when compared to my other friends in elementary school. I remember feeling very surprised to hear how lenient most of my friend’s families were. I could never dream of even asking my parents at that age if I was allowed to stay over at a friend’s house. Everything, for me, revolved around doing chores and getting good grades. It was also strange for me to see how close and warm my friends’ families were together; where there were dedicated nights for board games or nights where they would watch TV together.

Gender Inequality In The Family

The family is viewed as an essential part of our society, it always has been and it always will be. Although the family as a unit is vital for the continuous running of our society it can no longer be known as a fixed category.

18 Immersive Photo Essay Examples & Tips

By Tata Rossi 13 days ago, Professional photography

A photo essay tells a story or evokes emotion through a series of photographs. The essays allow you to be creative and fully explore an idea. Such essays exist in a variety of forms – from photos only to images with brief comments or written essays accompanied by shots. Choose a photo essay example that you can easily do based on your professional level and the equipment you use.

Besides, you can learn how to capture moving subjects. Use the best example of photo essay and don’t forget about angles, composition, and framing.

To create a photo essay , go up to the front and photograph the leader of the protesters walking forward. After that, go back to the end of the group to take pictures of families joining the protest. As a result, you will gain experience shooting big groups of people in motion.

2. Transformation

View the “A Self-Portrait Every Day” photo essay by Noah Kalina .

This idea is all about capturing the way a person changes. You may take photos of a pregnant woman and then capture the same model with a child. By documenting the development of the child for several years, you can tell a great story in the form of a photo essay.

However, you can also create a photo essay about the transformation of different objects. For instance, you can create a time-lapse series to capture the history of a renovated building. While you will have to take a lot of similar photos to bring this idea to life, it will allow you to achieve an impressive result.

3. Local Event

View the “Monday Marathon” photo essay by Quinn G. Perini .

Whether you are a resident of a large city or a small town, you can find an opportunity to visit a local event, like a marathon or a festival. This is a nice chance to follow modern photography trends and bring photo essay ideas to life.

You can capture the before-and-after stages of the event. Arrive earlier and take pictures of the preparation activities, then shoot the actual event starting with the official beginning.

Keep photographing even when the event is over and capture the cleaning up and disassembling processes.

4. Photowalk

View the “Empty Campus” photo essay by Elise Trissel .

Explore the location where you live and find interesting objects to capture in the vicinity. Using the most interesting photo essay examples, you can decide how to make the best decisions. Don’t hurry and try to discover which angles you can use to capture the unique atmosphere of each place.

For instance, you can try capturing reflections to see how they allow you to see the city from an unusual angle. You can find reflections everywhere, so be sure to pay attention to mirrored buildings, puddles, and fountains.

5. Place Over Time

View the “At Home in the Ozarks” photo essay by Kylee Cole .

View the “Last Moments” photo essay by Ross Taylor .

You don’t necessarily have to focus on profound photo essay topics to evoke emotions. Capturing pets enjoying their worry-free and untroubled life seems like an easy but interesting activity.

Choose any animal – from a domestic bird to a dog, cat, or horse. For more emotional images, use such pet photography ideas when your pet is still a baby and recreate these shots when it is older or is in its final days.

7. Street Style

View the Tribal Street Photography photo essay by Hans Eijkelboom .

People often express themselves with the help of clothes. The way passers-by on the streets are dressed may reflect the clothing style of a whole society. That’s why you can travel around the world and capture people’s outfits in various areas. When taking portrait photos in the streets, you can also include some of the surroundings to put them in the context.

You can ask people in the streets to pose for you or try to capture them in movement. Select a suitable location for taking photos and create a photo essay to document what kinds of people one can meet in this location. When doing urban photography , you should ask people for permission before taking photos of them. You can ask their contacts and send them your photos later.

8. Abandoned Building

View the “Lost Collective” photo essay by Bret Pattman .

Old buildings are excellent architecture photography essay topics for students since you can capture a large number of elements. They allow you to imagine what a particular street looked like in the past. You may use a photo essay example for students as references.

Get approval before going in, but mind that such places are far from being totally safe. Bring various lenses: the macro lenses – for details and the wide-angle one – when you want to include many elements in one shot.

9. Alternative Lifestyles

View the “Last Nomad Hippies” photo essay by Roberto Palomo .

Some people decide to lead a lifestyle that differs from the one generally accepted by society. Explore different areas and look for people with an unusual way of living. You can capture candid photos of regular people or take pictures of a person with an unusual hobby.

11. Behind the Scenes

View the “Follow Me” photo essay by Marius Masalar .

If you are going to visit an event, get ready to take some behind-the-scenes photos. For instance, you can document the preparations for a festival. Capture the work of the lead event planner and other professionals to tell the story of the festival from an unusual angle.

Alternatively, you can capture the events happening backstage during a drama production. Take pictures of actors and actresses when they are getting ready for the performance. Try capturing the emotions of the main lead and show how stage workers make final preparations. You can also document the work of designers and makeup professionals.

12. Landmarks

View the “Volte-Face” photo essay by Oliver Curtis .

The pictures of landmarks are typically taken from a certain spot. One of the best photo essay ideas is to try shooting sights from various angles. You will also have an opportunity to improve your composition and your framing skills.

• View the “Family” photo essay by Olivia Moore .

However, you may also opt for a different approach and focus on more difficult social topics.

In addition, you may show how families cope with other social issues, including poverty or unequal access to healthcare.

14. A Day in the Life

View the “A Day in the Life of Carlos Gaytan” photo essay by Sandy Noto .

For instance, you can select any photo essay sample you like and then capture a portrait of a person with the tools they use for their work.

15. Education

View the “School Day” photo essay by Nancy Borowick .

You can also take great photos in the classroom capturing the interactions of teachers and their students. Avoid distracting them, as it will be easier for you to take natural shots.

Roman Gabriel dies at 83. The first Filipino-American quarterback in NFL was MVP in 1969

Roman Gabriel had big size and a big arm when he was the No. 2 draft pick of the Los Angeles Rams in 1962. Even while playing in an era of grinding it out on the ground, he still holds the Rams’ team record with 154 touchdown passes .

Gabriel, the first Filipino-American quarterback in the NFL and the league MVP in 1969, died Saturday. He was 83.

His son, Roman Gabriel III, announced his father’s death on social media, saying he died peacefully at home of natural causes.

In 2021, the elder Gabriel told the Los Angeles Times, “I am retired with heart problems and arthritis but happy.” He said he split time between Wilmington, North Carolina, and Little River, South Carolina.

“We mourn the loss of Rams legend and football pioneer, Roman Gabriel,” the Rams said on X , formerly known as Twitter.

Gabriel, who played at North Carolina State and was a two-time player of the year in the Atlantic Coast Conference, was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1989.

He was 6-foot-5 and 235 pounds, big for a quarterback in that era. Green Bay coach Vince Lombardi once described him as “a big telephone pole,” according to the Los Angeles Times.

Gabriel played 11 years for the Rams and five years with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he was traded after the Rams acquired John Hadl.

“Gabe was an amazing player and an even better mentor. Words can’t explain my thanks for what a great teammate he was,” retired quarterback Ron Jaworski , whom Gabriel backed up on the Eagles in his final season, posted on X. “A special player and a better man!”

Gabriel was such a hot prospect that the Rams made him the No. 2 pick in the NFL draft, and the Oakland Raiders of the rival AFL selected him No. 1. Gabriel wound up signing with the Rams, though it took until George Allen was hired as coach in 1966 for Gabriel to start leaving a mark.

From 1967 to 1970, Gabriel led the Rams to a 41-14-4 record and two division titles, though never a playoff game. He was voted MVP in 1969 after throwing for 2,549 yards with 24 touchdown passes and five rushing scores.

Allen left for Washington after the 1970, and Gabriel was shipped to the Eagles in 1973. He was the NFL comeback player of the year, leading the league with 23 touchdown passes and 3,219 yards, as he tried to help revive the Eagles’ offense.

After retiring, Gabriel worked briefly for CBS, calling NFL games.

He went into coaching, with stints at Cal Poly Pomona, the Boston Breakers of the USFL and Raleigh-Durham in the World League of American Football.

Gabriel also dabbled in acting. His movie credits included “Skidoo” starring Jackie Gleason in 1968, and 1969’s “The Undefeated” starring John Wayne and Rock Hudson. He appeared in such TV shows as “Gilligan’s Island,” “Perry Mason,” “Ironside” and “Wonder Woman.” He also joined Bob Hope on a USO tour of Vietnam.
