In my search for an interviewee, I’ve thought of people with wise minds. I’ve interviewed not just one, but two people filled with wisdom to inspire others. Sophia Beatrice N. Gonowon is a grade 12 HUMSS student and trusts in life’s happiness, gentleness, and sincerity in every individual in our society, including ourselves. She aims to experience living even with fear and uncertainty instead of being regretful for not doing the things she wanted.

She says you can show love through genuineness, trust, and support. She adds that generosity can change everything and is the purest form of love one can give. With love, she encourages good decision-making to give future generations. When asked if our society can live without inequality, she states that some levels of inequality are inevitable. The challenge lies in managing it and mitigating its effects in our society.

Alissa M. Perez, a young nurse, aims to be successful through growing and learning personally and professionally to be the best version of herself. She wishes to build meaningful relationships, enjoy a balanced work-life setting, and positively contribute to the community. For her, love is the romantic passion, the unwavering bond of family, the cherished friendships, and the vital self-love that grasps our true selves. She believes that to be a good person, one should practice integrity while being seen as good is superficial and subjective.

As a responsible citizen, Alissa notes that our rational decisions in the present will influence a bright future for later generations. When asked if society can exist without forms of inequality, she noticed its challenges with the differences and uniqueness of everyone. While desiring for an equal society, it might not be feasible if that means to suppress our individuality. Finding the balance in society is essential.

Ali C. Shaikh a student who has found that he relates to stoicism because in life you cannot control the things that happen to your life; however, how you choose to respond to these events will determine the outcome or at the very least will give you control on how your life goes. Working hard each day to serve as an inspiration to his younger siblings. And his mother who motivates him to keep going despite being a single mother to provide for four children and still be successful. Her work serves as his motivation that nothing is impossible.

He understands that despite the challenges he went through, that he should never give up on anything in life to make his mother proud.

“Help others, show kindness, be humble, and set an example. Be the light that brightens the world clouded by negativity, and act according to God’s teachings.”

Emerlinda L. Florendo found that success in life comes not from money or assets but happiness and love. Being a mother of seven children, she values relationships, time, and love more than anything. True and meaningful relationships are not easy to find and they are the most valuable as they cannot be bought with money. You can be the richest person in the world but if you are not content, happy, or do not experience love, life can feel empty. People can find their happiness through kindness and sharing with others. She found hers with her family and loved ones.

There are moments in life when we experience failures and challenges, these experiences are painful and frightening. For Emerlinda, we must not be afraid of failure and face the obstacles in our lives. Failures and obstacles are important and shape us as individuals, these are things that should be seen as lessons learned.

Attorney Raquel M. Quiniano-Candelaria’s philosophy in life is centered around the concept of self-belief and the power of positive thinking. She believes that trusting in one’s abilities and maintaining a positive mindset can lead to achieving great things. With this, she never lets her doubts overpower neither her determination nor her passion.

When facing life’s obstacles, she believes that everything happens for a reason. No matter how dire or awful as situation may be, Atty. Quelly believes that something good can still come from it. This might be a life lesson, a character development, or a stronger self - she is open to new ideas and relearning. In addition, she has faith in God and his greater plan for her. For the things she cannot control, she lets them go and trusts God. She prays for the grace to forgive and understand why things are happening the way are together with the grace of an optimistic mind.

If she can share a piece of advice with others, she said that it would be to believe in ourselves because our thoughts, dreams, and beliefs have the power to shape our realities.

“Life is what we make it. We are responsible for who we become - no one else is. With the right mindset, we can achieve incredible things. Intelligence is something we can develop through dedication and hard work. I wasn’t a standout student but through believing in myself and working hard, I grew in knowledge and capability during law school.” - Atty. Raquel M. Quiniano-Candelaria

Meet 𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑠 𝐴𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑎 𝑅. 𝐺𝑎𝑟𝑐𝑖𝑎, a HUMSS student who is currently studying at Naga College Foundation Inc. For her, success is not all about mere achievements; it’s about personal growth, exploring her potential, and making a meaningful change to the people around her. Growing up in a challenging environment has shaped her resilience and independence, reinforcing her belief that true growth is born from overcoming obstacles.

She understands that while challenges can be discouraging, they are essential to our development and are gates to new opportunities. Precious differentiates personal growth from personal change, emphasizing that growth is a continuous journey of self-discovery, while change is the specific outcomes or transformations we encounter.

Moreover, she sees failure not as an endpoint but as a vital teacher; she embraces life’s lessons, knowing that every setback is a step toward greater success. Her story reminds us all that in serving others, we can uplift ourselves and those around us.
