    The document summarizes life lessons learned from three mythological stories. In The Quest of the Golden Fleece, the author relates to Nephele's unconditional love for her children as their mother. In The Four Great Adventures, the author learned to always listen to elders' advice from Icarus' experience of ignoring his father's warning. In Great Heroes Before the Trojan War, the author took away a lesson about knowing the full story before making conclusions, similar to how King Aegus jumped to his death without the whole picture from Theseus.

    Midterm: Mythology and Folklore

    Activity#1: Life Lessons Learned

    1.    What are some of life’s lessons learned in the following stories?  Mention only and relate it to
    your own experience. Mention the event, experience of the name of the character that
    showed that particular lesson your life.

     A. THE QUEST OF THE GOLDEN FLEECE

    Character:__Nephele________________________________________________________

    Event/Experience: Even though she was not in good condition because she was jailed by
    her own husband, she still prayed for the safety of her two children.

    'Lesson/s learned: The lesson I learned in Nephele’s experience is a mother’s love for her
    children is unconditional. A mother will always think of their children’s sake first, before
    thinking of their own. I can relate this with my own experience because my mother always
    cares and worries about me whenever I’m sick, even though she’s also not feeling well. She
    would provide me everything I need even if she won’t be able to get her own needs. My
    mother will always prioritize us, her children, instead of herself because a mother will always
    find a way to protect her own children.

    B.   THE FOUR GREAT ADVENTURES

    Character:___Icarus_______________________________________________________

    Event/Experience: His father already warned him to not fly too high because the wax in his
    wings might be melted because of the sun’s heat, but he disregarded his father’s advice. He
    flew too high, and the wax melted. As a result, he fell into the ocean and died in drowning.

    Lesson/learned: Always listen to the advice of elders. In my life, there are a lot of times
    where I am a stubborn and hard-headed child, sometimes I don’t listen to what my parents
    and grandparents tell me to do because I think that my decisions are right. However, in the
    end, I just get the consequences of my actions and rush decisions. Icarus’ experience taught
    me that I should always take elder’s advice seriously because they know what the best is for
    me, and they don’t want me to be in danger. Additionally, it made me realize that my desire,
    and clumsy decisions and actions can result in harm. That's why I need to think deeply first
    before doing anything.

     
    C.   GREAT HEROES BEFORE THE TROJAN WAR

    Character:__King Aegus_________________________________________________

    Event/Experience: Theseus forgot to raise the white sail so his father saw that the sail is still
    in black. King Aegeus thought that his son was already dead. It resulted to jumping to the sea
    of King Aegeus, and that’s the reason for his death.

    Lesson/s learned: Know the whole story first before arriving into a conclusion. We should
    always hear the details or facts before we conclude and take action. Sometimes, I also
    experience this, I act hastily without knowing the details first that’s why at the end; I face
    consequences of my actions. Also, not waiting to have the full picture before acting can lead
    to loss of time and effort.
