Listen to that voice deep within you.</b><br />
<br />
Just like other kids, I was born physically healthy and active, enjoying every activity that a physically normal child does. Not until I reached the age of 4 when I was infected with polio virus causing both of my legs to become paralyzed. It wasn’t easy for me to adapt to such a strange condition that I wasn’t used to.<br />
<br />
It was a big turn around in my life as a child. However, because of the affection, love and care of my parents, family and playmates, I was able to gain feeling of acceptance which contributed a lot in building up my self confidence. And I felt my life turned out to be normal again despite the physical difference.<br />
<br />
At the age of 6, I started to go to school. But since I cannot walk, my Mom would just carry me to and from, for me to be able to attend classes until I learned to use a crutch and a cane to facilitate my mobility. At school or even at new places where my Mom would bring me along, I experienced to be laughed at, treated differently and even ridiculed by other kids. It really felt so downhearted. But I realized, I should not wallow into self pity, instead I should remind myself that God created me special and I can excel in my own special way. Modesty side, I was always on top of the class and graduated as Class Valedictorian in high school.<br />
<br />
With my earnest aspirations to earn a degree, I applied for scholarship at <a href="http://www.sac.edu.ph/">Saint Anthony’s College-Antique</a> and finally granted full scholarship sponsored by <a href="http://www.lilianefonds.org/">Stichting Liliane Fonds (SLF)</a> for my Bachelor of Science in (BS) Management course. After finishing the course, I enrolled for a second course BS Accountancy at <a href="http://csj.dcphilippines.org/">Colegio de San Jose- Iloilo City</a> after passing the qualifications for the <a href="http://www.aseansec.org/9965.htm">Japan Scholarship fund for the ASEAN Youth Program (JSFAYP)</a>.<br />
<br />
While in college, I’ve been one of the active members of Association of Disabled Persons-Iloilo (ADP-I) and also <a href="http://www.adp-antique.ph.tc/">ADP-Antique</a>. I learned a lot of things being exposed with my fellow Persons with Disability (PWDs) in the association. Through the trainings, seminars, social activities and programs initiated by the association has been a great help for a PWD like me to develop our talents and self-esteem so as to understand our roles and responsibilities in the mainstream of society in particular. <br />
<br />
After graduation in college, I left for Manila for my Certified Public Accountant (CPA) board exams but unfortunately, I’ve got some financial difficulty that time so I just decided to work as volunteer at HAndog LIngap sa may KApansanan (HALIKA) Foundation-Manila as Special Project Officer. I used to work there for almost a year.<br />
<br />
Seeking for financial stability, I started to hunt jobs in different companies in Manila, private and public sectors. In the employment arena, one thing I always believe wholeheartedly: “ My disability does not define the person that I am – I am intelligent and hardworking individual. I should be the first one to believe in my capabilities before other people would trust in my capabilities”. <br />
<br />
My persistence and preparations in my job search was finally paid off with flying colors! I was more than fortunate to be hired by Globe Telecom, Inc. for a Customer Service Assistant position that up to now, receiving full benefits and compensated income to live pretty normal as anybody else. I love my job! I’ve got the chance to deal with different people of different levels, giving them excellent customer service experience…and it’s always good! <br />
<br />
Another thing, I wanted to share: “When you fail, get back up and try again. Don’t listen to what you can’t do. Listen to that voice deep within you, it knows, when you’ve done your best”. <br />

It really helps the visually impaired person to access the street without guide. I hope someday there will be "blocks" here in the Philippines specially in Iloilo.<br />

<br />
Peer Counseling for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) is interpersonal, theory-based process of helping Persons with Disabilities who are fundamentally psychologically healthy resolve developmental and situational issue.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Detail</b><br />
<br />
November 21, 2009 DAY 1<br />
<br />
The Program started with “Who am I Workshop” where the 12 participants have to answer the 4 questions;<br />
<br />
<ol><li><b>When and how your disability Happen? </b></li>
<li><b>Since you became a disabled what was the unforgettable experiences that happened in your life? </b></li>
<li><b>What is your outlook in yourself as a person? </b></li>
<li><b>What is your outlook in your disability?</b></li>
</ol><br />
By writing on their notebooks and they will keep it. Next was the “Empowerment” before the proper lecture, the 12 participants was divided into four groups, then each group I gave the puzzles for them to solve and they do not have an idea what is the form of the puzzles. (The puzzles was a human shapes and each body parts contains 11 positive empowering attitudes and it has been cut out and each facilitators had taken one body part secretly, the aim of this workshop was to let the participants know that none of the puzzles was perfect and complete like us PWDs some body parts are not present or functional but as a “Person” there is something in us that can compensate that missing part in our body.)<br />
<br />
After the workshop I lectured about the importance of Empowerment to Peer Counseling.<br />
<br />
I lectured about Peer Counseling (definition, purpose and history) and it had also a workshop on “Basic Idea on Peer Counseling” which the participants will answer the question:<br />
<br />
<b>Because you are now a Person with Disability (PWD), what is your plan in your life?</b><br />
<br />
after answering the question each one of them will share their plans in life as PWD. Then my one of my colleagues in CBR Coregroup lectured about the “Fundamental Ideas of Implementing Peer Counseling” which she explained the importance of:<br />
<br />
<ul><li><b>Creativity</b></li>
<li><b> Wisdom</b></li>
<li><b> Love</b></li>
<li><b> Joy</b></li>
<li><b>Spirit of Solidarity</b></li>
</ul><br />
in the life of each PWD and also it had a workshop which the participants are divided into 2 groups and have a 10-15 min “Role Play” based on (Creativity, Wisdom, Love, Joy and Spirit of Solidarity).<br />
<br />
Then I gave a lecture regarding on “Human Relationship” on Peer Counseling and the importance of friendship among PWDs. My co-resource person Mr. Abner Manlapaz (who also studied 3 wks of Independent Living in Japan) gave homework for the which divided into 2 groups participants<br />
<br />
<b>Write down what you have learn today in this seminar?</b><br />
<br />
(And each group will report what they have learned on the next day.)<br />
<br />
Also he conducted “Independent Living of APCD (Asia Pacific Center for Disabilities) Film Showing" for the participants<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
November 21, 2009 DAY2<br />
<br />
Each group presented what they had learned about the seminar on the other day, (10 min each group).<br />
<br />
Then lectured about “Methods and Rules of Peer Counseling:<br />
<br />
<ul><li><b>privacy</b></li>
<li><b>secrecy</b></li>
<li><b> respect client’s identity</b></li>
<li><b>do not give advice instead give an option</b></li>
</ul><br />
Also I explained to them some <b>“English Terms that are Used in Peer Counseling”</b><br />
<br />
<ul><li><b>RC- Re-evaluation counseling</b></li>
<li><b> Emotional Discharge</b></li>
<li><b> Cycle or Pattern</b></li>
<li><b> Contradiction</b></li>
<li><b>Closeness</b></li>
<li><b>Session</b></li>
<li><b> Tension Back</b></li>
<li><b>Appreciation</b></li>
<li><b> Commitment</b></li>
<li><b> New and Goods</b></li>
<li><b>Think and Listen</b></li>
</ul><br />
Then I lectured the Roles of the Client and the Roles of the Counselor.<br />
<br />
After a thorough lecture of Peer Counseling, Abner explained the importance of “Emotional Release” in us PWDs then we do Peer Counseling in pairs in several sessions,<br />
<br />
also one of my colleagues in CBR Coregroup do a “Personal Coat of Arms Workshop” where each participant will share about their views regarding on the workshop questions of “Who am I” and “Basic Idea of Peer Counseling” and they will share what are the differences of their feelings between “Who am I” whom they keep their answers to the workshop and on “Basic Ideas of Peer Counseling” whom they share their answers to everyone.<br />
<br />
Then Abner discussed and helped the participants to plan to “Peer Support Group” for New Lucena PWDs, After that Abner and My two colleagues from ADP-I CBR Coregroup (Rodinna Laviana and Analyn Porras) conduct a “Consultation or Individual Counseling” on each participants, the we finished the workshop on “Appreciation and New and Goods” and each and everyone has to share their feelings about the two-day seminar. And we do a closing remark.<br />
