    Jonathan Livingston Seagull

    The story of Jonathan Livingston is an interesting story about how a certain


    seagull named Jonathan who lived with his values not only by words but through his
    actions. Jonathan became a great teacher and continue to make others follow him in
    the cause he believes and that is to become free as a seagull.
    This story changed my outlook in life that I should stand firm in my own belief
    as person of whoever I am right now. I will continue to trust and have confidence in
    myself rather than hide in a constrained place. An example would be is that before, I
    was just going with the flow by enjoying my own life as a normal student. After high
    school as I came to up, I learned many things especially in our NSTP that we had to
    make our own income generating funds. I planned and tried many ways to earn and
    thus discovering that I enjoyed engaging into business. I ventured trying to sell my
    ice candy and experimenting with the different proportions and flavors to make
    people enjoy with it. Rather than just following what my group does, I became a
    leader guiding the group composing of 20 students. I realize how hard it is for me to
    make group closer because each and every one of us has different characteristics
    and beliefs. In my example, I value hardwork and achievement because I enjoy what
    I strive and continue to do best in what I have started. Another thing that I learn from
    this story is that no matter who you are, you should always look back at your own
    native place even if they would criticize you on your own acts. However, there are
    also things in life that we must never forget like to repay our own parents for taking
    good care of us and respect them for what they believe. You must not hate them but
    continue to love them.
    An example is that whenever I will already be graduating in college, I will still
    continue to abide by the values of my own parents and grandparents that they have
    instilled in me. At the same time, I will create the things that I would to value the most
    in order to have confidence in my self and follow my own path. Based on this story, I
    would like also to consider the values of others and their own perspective because
    each and everyone has a distinct characteristics, attitudes, values and other things.
    You cannot just simply force them to follow your own values and beliefs. However,
    you can only inspire by showing to them what you belief and what you can do. You
    are the one who creates our own image on how people want to see you. For
    example is when people want to see me as an honest person, you have to show to
    them that what you say is what you really mean. It is shown in the story just like the
    seagull who wants to fly rather than eat by showing and proving to them by hovering
    up in the sky. The purpose according to Jonathan is not to fly to eat but to enjoying
    flying itself. I also learned from the story that you also listen and portray that the
    elders have taught you. They may be right because they are more knowledgeable
    than you are. However not all what they say I right but nevertheless you have to
    respect them.
