     We live in a world where chaos, wars, discrimination, and inequality is normal. Our world is always changing, what I mean about changing is the people that lives in it and due to these changes that happens in our world many of us will be left out. In the past years of human existence, women are always at the bottom. We are now living in 21 st  century and questioning women’s abilities, skills, and capabilities are one of the biggest mistakes that you will ever done. Women these days are very different due to the fact that centuries ago, movements of women are very limited and it is very hard. They were not allowed to do anything but household chores, not letting women to study, and many more. In these situations, we cannot see gender equality and men are always believed to be stronger compared to women. To the point wherein men have more opportunities than women because not only a single chance had given to them. Throughout history, women have made extraordinary...

  What is Lent? Lent is a season in which we especially focus on examining our hearts, confessing our sins. Lent  is the  season  to observe and commemorate the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the son of God, our Savior and Redeemer. It is an opportune time to reflect on what it means to be a follower of Christ .   Lent  is the period of 40 days which comes before Easter in the Christian calendar. Beginning on Ash Wednesday,  Lent  is a  season  of reflection and preparation before the celebrations of Easter. By observing the 40 days of  Lent , Christians replicate Jesus Christ's sacrifice and withdrawal into the desert for 40 days.

New quarter, New knowledge acquired

Reflection for Second Quarter This second quarter I have acquired  new lessons will be added to my knowledge and exciting activities that I will do. And I was not disappointed because this second quarter I have learned about how to use the HTML.            The lessons of this quarter are easy for me to understand because I was super interested in it. I may have encountered problems but I easily coped up with it and went on. At the first lesson I did not understand it at first but I thrived to learn and I asked my brother what's all about the lesson and I understood it easily. And for the basic HTML it was easy for me and I love coding. Though I still had to memorize or review it because I’m someone who easily forgets things.             Moving on, I will keep what I am doing because it's a good practice and I will do my best to keep it. I will hope that the next quarter it will be exciting -- again -- and I hope th...
