INTRODUCTION OF THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE HUMAN PERSON

QUARTER 2: Human Persons as Oriented Towards Their Impending Death

Content standard:

Performance standard:

Lesson Objective:
At the end of this module, the learners are expected to:

2. Recognize that death is inevitable
3. Reflect on the meaning of life (PPT11/12-IIi-8.4)

What is it? (Module 4: page 2)


Nothing lasts forever (walang forever). The cycle of being born, growing up and growing
old and dying is a reality. We have limited time here on earth and whether we like it or not, we are
bound to die. Death is real. It is a part of our being. Death is commonly understood as the end of
bodily functions. It also refers to the separation of body and spirit. Everything that exists in this
universe comes to an end and we humans are not exempted. The acceptance of being a
temporary individual in this world gives us a clearer vision on how to live life to the fullest and
understand the meaning of our existence. We have the freedom to choose a well-lived life; doing
good and doing what is right.
What makes us happy? Happiness is a state of being (over all physical condition of a
person), not just only an emotion or a decision. We do not choose happiness because we feel it,
we do not choose happiness because we need it but happiness is the totality of who we are as
human beings.
As an embodied spirit, we must consider also the goods or sources of our happiness.

Kinds of Good
1. Noble good is one which is pursued for its own sake, example is love and friendship.
2. Useful good is found only from what it can provide, example, money is good as it can buy you
something.
3. Pleasurable good is good so long as it provides some form of pleasure, though it does not have
to be physical.
Whatever the source of our happiness right now, let us see to it that it is real and
meaningful.

What’s more? (Individual activity)


1. Based on the concepts in Lesson 1, produce a (2 – 3 minutes) video clip on the things which
make you happy.
2. Present it by the time you are scheduled to meet your teacher.
