Other symbolism:

Ina ng Awa:                                   For forgiveness
Husgado:                                       Patience, cleansing
Gate:                                             Way that leads to Heaven



Understanding and Realizations

Because of this outbound trip, we learned that respect for different beliefs is necessary. People living in that place may not have the same religion as we have, but we must be open minded with diverse religious beliefs others believe in. Some of them consider Jose Rizal as a hero, a prophet, and even a saint; however, this outbound educational trip do not force us to change beliefs or to believe what they believe in but rather accept and understand them for this is their religion. They also want to be treated with respect as we want to be respected by them.
