Yay! We're finally done with the topics about unpacking the self.
How are you doing lately? Did you get to explore or to know more things about yourself?
Let's have a recap of the topics we talked about, shall we?
✨ Physical Self
Listen to yourself, follow what your heart truly desires. Don't let the norms and standards of society define you. You are the one who knows yourself better. Also, it reminds us that we have to accept and love ourselves first before others because everything always starts with us. Building one's confidence and self-esteem is a step-by-step process, so don't rush and take your time. Once you're ready to show the world who you are, flaunt it, love!
✨ Sexual Self
Sexual-related topics are always been taboo here in the Philippines. It is always viewed as 'Bastos' even though it's not. That resulted in why people here in the Philippines are not knowledgeable about sexual activities or behavior. Because of this, the population in our country is continuously rising, and that's the consequence of not being sexually educated. Sexual self reminds us that we have to be aware and educated to know how we will act in such circumstances.
✨ Material Self
In this material world where we live, the material self reminds us that it's very unhealthy if we can only find happiness from spending money. Everything that's is excessive is bad for us. May we try to live in contentment to achieve true happiness.
✨ Spiritual Self
Everyone has their own beliefs and they also have different ways of expressing their spiritual self. This topic tells us that we may have differences in expressing, we still share a common reason and that is to find the meaning and purpose of our life.
✨ Political Self
Everything in this world is political, that's why our political self plays a big role in how we present ourselves. It's important to be aware of the issues your country is facing, in that way you can contribute to the country by helping or being the voice to those who are oppressed.
✨ Digital Self
The digital world has a very wide perspective, it can be a safe place for some but it can be also toxic for others. As of now, our only way to have a social interaction is through digital or social media. May we remember to be always cautious about what we share or what we access on the internet so it could be a safe place for everyone. The way we express ourselves through digital is very different from personal. This reminds us not that we should not believe and be affected by what we see on the internet.
It's not that easy to find if what is our purpose in life, it's really a life-long process. We hope that our page helped you to follow your own North Star, to achieve the true happiness that we deserve. 💖
