Kaugaliang Paggalang
Pumunta kami sa bahay ng Lolo at Lola ko dahil sa anibersaryo ng kasal nila. Pagdating sa bahay nila, nagmano kami.
Kaugalian namin ang nagmamano sa nakakatanda. Pagkatapos, bumati kami ng “Maligayang bati!” Dumating din ang kapatid ni Lolo. Basta may handaan, dumarating ang mga kamag-anak. Masaya ako kasi nakita ko ang kapatid ko, ang asawa niya at ang anak nila. Dalawang araw na sila rito. Tumulong na magluto ang bayaw at pamangkin ko. Nagdala pa sila ng mga balut galing sa Fresno. Siksikan kami sa hapag-kainan.
Showing Respect
We went to my grandfather and grandmother’s home because it was their wedding anniversary. As soon as we arrived at their house, we asked for a blessing (by way of a Filipino gesture). Mano is our traditional greeting to our elders. Afterwards, we congratulated them. Grandfather’s brother also arrived. Whenever there is a celebration, relatives come. I was happy to see my cousin with his friend. They have been here for two days. His mother helped cook the food. They even brought fat chickens to barbecue. It was crowded at the dinner table
Filipino Custom and Values:
Mano or Bless - taking the right hand of the elder person and bringing the back of the palm to one’s forehead, is a Pilipino custom of showing respect and asking for an elder’s blessing.
Respect for the elders – Grandparents are usually in the top of the family hierarchy followed by the parents. Children are expected to show respect and deference to their elders who are thought to be wiser than the children and are therefore trusted to know what is best for the children.
