Reflection of ''THE WORLD IS AN APPLE'' by Alberto Florentino

'' THE WORLD IS AN APPLE''
  After I read this story, I was amazed by the title and especially the story '' THE WORLD IS AN APPLE'',why it was titled like that,why world is an apple and so on questions came up to my mind...It contains moral values about life in reality.It highly significant message to me.I learned we don't need expensive things to satisfy ourselves.



      “You should have tried to bring home pan-de-sal, or rice, or milk---not those “delicious” apples. We’re not rich. We can live without apples.” – Gloria from the story “The world is an Apple”

        Gloria's line touched my heart; it proves that she's content for what she had.

She's good,kind-hearted person,hopeful and caring too.She takes care of TITA her daughter.She believes in God.She took away Mario  from Pablo because he do unnecessary bad things.The moral lessons are ''Be content and thankful for what you have,'' Be good example to others'',Don't lose hope'' and '' Believe to God''.


Mario: I wouldn't mind losing a thousand jobs for an apple for my daughter!

      It proves that Mario will do everything for his daughter even he lost anything and  he love his daughter. The end was so sad because he chose to be with Pablo and do bad things.He chose to steal because he thought that was the only way to live but a big NO!, God have many plans for us and always by our sides.''Think Positive''.Stealing is stealing and its against the law even you did it in purpose still WRONG MOVE.

 
  Therefore those lines reminds me the importance of life itself without elegant means.There are always alternative to the things we have in this world.
