awa, nasa tao ang
gawa.
May awa ang Diyos sa tao at
nais nitong tulungan sa mga
problema niya sa buhay.
Subalit, nasa tao pa rin kung
kikilos siya o hindi.
Ang ginagawa sa
pagkabata, kadalasan
ay nadadala sa
pagtanda.
Ang mga ginagawa ng bata, mabuti
man o masama, kadalasan ay nadadala
nila sa kanilang pagtanda kung
kaya’t bata pa lamang, dapat ay
iwasto na ang dapat iwasto.
Ang umaayaw ay hindi
nananalo, ang
nananalo ay hindi
umaayaw.
Hindi nananalo ang mga umaayaw.
Kung gusto mong manalo o
magtagumpay, dapat patuloy lang sa
buhay hanggang sa makamit ang
inaasam.
