in page 131 of our textbook, it said that Ramayana, in India, is not only an entertaining story, but also a guide for living. Who or what is a guide for your own living. It can be a existing person or a imaginary one. It can also be a thing. For me, it is not a god nor an eminent person. it is knowledge I gathered throughout my life. Whenever I face challenges and have to make tough decisions I rely mostly on my knowledge. What about you? What or who is your guide for living?

I agree that knowledge is one of the important things makes who I am today. The experiences also guided me a lot. I knew how staying up late made my IQ become 3 until I did it. I knew an eraser can never be finished before I lost it until I bought a box of erasers for reserving. I knew spending money on roller coaster was just for secreting adrenaline until I had no fun with it. Everything can be a good teacher for us.

probably my family.... They give me support whether I had bad day or didn't do well on the test. They are the one who help me when ever I need it and that is why I rely on them. Also, My friends would be another guide of my life. They also cheer me up when I'm depressed and sad. This is very important because cheering one another helps people to forget about the depressing emotions and continue to finish the work

Nice question Minjae ... But my answer is the opposite than your I do believe that God is the guider for my life and yes I'm saying this because I'm religion and I believe in God. I have faith in him for the things that I believe that he has done for me, and that's the reason why I believe God is my guider

As a Christian, God guides my life. I trust Him with my life and I try to follow what the Bible says because it is His word. I believe that He will guide me in the right direction.

Mostly my family is the guide for living because in times of trouble, they are always prepared to support me in making decisions.

Because I am a Christian, God guides my life. I know what is wrong and what is right by reading the Bible. And in difficult situations, I ask God for help. For example, when I am not having a good relationship with a friend, I pray that he will show me the correct way to handle the problem and everything will turn out okay.

I am a Christian, and God guides my life. God's words are written on the Bible, and I often read it when I have a difficult time. I also read moral stories in the Bible and try to follow God's way of living. I believe his words guide me through challenges and help me to make difficult decisions.

there are a lot of things and people that become my guidance in my life. first of all is my religion, what is good and what is bad i learned it from my religion. The second one is my experiences, i learned a lot from my mistakes because i believe that fear makes you braver, pain makes you stronger, and heartbreak makes you wiser. hmm and the person that i considered as my guidance in life is my parents hehe. they taught me a lot of things and they seem really understand myself as their children, they protect me and led me to the right way

The holy Koran could be considered as my guidance. I am not a good muslim but im still trying to be one of them. I sometimes read Koran because, God forgive me, i have so much things to do. The messenger of Allah is a perfect example for me, im trying hard to have a personality like him but its sooo hard and no one can be like him. So my guidance in life is my experience, i have been through a hardship that people may not believe it but it is true and it was truly hard. And I think if someone else was in my shoes, they wouldve tried to commit suicide but fortunately i didnt. so my experience is my important part of my life.

For me, my parents' advice is what guides my life. Of course, bible and other religious texts do help me but I think I listen to my parents most because they are always right beside me and they give me guidance and advice that really help me. They tell me how to deal with human relationships and other personal struggles and although I complain how my parents nag too often, I find myself listening to them so I guess my parents are the ones who are actually guiding me.

I think my family is the one who guides my life. They try to keep me onto the right path. What I mean is they have been teaching me many things that are important in my life. For example, they taught me how to react to and deal with a certain situation when I was having a hard time. Their guidance influenced me a lot in life.

Family and Religion would be an obvious answer for this question to most of us there, however, for me, although I believe those two as my guidance, I also believe that my past experiences are those that guide my life. All my past actions tells me whether one action from the presence is right or wrong and therefore I can judge my action which could keep me in a safe and right path. My past experiences also have strong influences on my personality and reaction to things which has to influence my life also.

I think my parents are the most important ones who help me through the hardships. However, I felt that, even though my parents try to help me out by giving an adivce, the one who have to overcome the hardship was me. Those helpful advice were there for me to make a right choice for overcoming my hardship. Therefore, I often rely on myself, and go for the choice, which I believe it right.
