RODRIGUEZ, LYNNE PSY185

I have familiarized myself with the Parable of the Moth due to the countless times I’ve heard this story from when I was young. Looking back, the only lesson I was able to form was to be an obedient child and listen to my parents because it will save me from harm; which is the evident takeaway from the parable. However, having to read it again after years of only remembering the gist, I figured there was more to learn on this poem. While I’m still firm on being an obedient child, I figured that elders had already went through the phases of the present. Our generations immensely differ, yet it’s undeniable that their words for wisdom could still be of help because a point will stand regardless of your moral reasoning and lending an ear may be essential. The moth died because it was captivated by the light and was strong willed to come near and satisfy its curiosity. That leads me to my second and third takeaway; your determination and curiosity makes and breaks you. Just like the moth, Rizal was intensely devoted to shedding light on how the Filipinos were treated under the Spaniards that he was willing to give his life for our country. And though curiosity exists for a reason, it lingers to one’s mind because a person refuses to reside with what he knows; it will seek for more, and that brings me to my last point. To live without ever experiencing something beautiful is truly torture. The extreme consequences of death with beauty or “longevity” without beauty are hard to decide between but it could all be possible with courage.
