Filipino Folk material can be seen as 7 basic life principles: the 7 Words. Identity is first, where the central story can be put most simply as: who am I? Typically each of us has a need to become much less confused about what we are trying to achieve. This applies to all and everything, from everyday practical matters to dealing with painful feelings. The puzzle is to be able to achieve a clear mind and then to find the solutions to issues that trouble us. The 7 Words System offers a down-to-earth intuitive process that permits us to access a much better awareness of what precisely we are trying to find. The process kicks off with No. To begin with, we will need define accurately what we don't want, what is not useful, before we can know what we do want.

Second, the quest for knowledge, reaching out beyond the horizons of habit to meet new people, new ideas and new ways to see the world. The next stage concerns the word Hello. We will need to make ourselves open to new possibilities if we are to develop our possibilities of answers to our predicaments and problems. Is that reasonably logical? To get something different we will need to broaden our perspectives and look where we have not formerly looked already. Fresh thoughts, new friends, new places and new things are all parts of giving attention to something we have not previously experienced. So we will have to at some point switch old for new, that we have something to offer in equitable return for what we want to get.

Then love. Romantic love between woman and man is favourite, yet the importance of family, village, nation and humanity itself also shows acts of kindness. Between all of our choices, some are more appealing than others and we feel we want to treat them as having a greater value, because we appreciate them more. This is explained by the primary word Thanks. Frequently, we disregard the significance of what we have, slip into thanklessness and are likely to take things for granted.It's more than merely a courtesy to let somebody see our appreciation for things we cherish; it has an important consequence in helping us to succeed in attaining our targets. Unconsciously, we are drawn to what we convey gratitude for, and yet it's equally correct to say that we will be able to draw them to us too. We build up our charisma when we say Thanks and therefore, in doing this, we readily bring things to us.

The Hero’s quest. The brave young man goes forward to take on challenges, either external or internal. The defeating of evil is a metaphor for the battle of light and darkness within one’s own heart. Goodbye is the fourth of the 7 primary words and relates to a progression that has four phases. They are: realization, decision, completion and moving on. What we are saying goodbye to a particular stage of change, which is observed basically as unmitigated refutation of a viable path of action that previously we had been progressing towards and in future will not pursue. It is a turning point in our choice of possible outcomes.Goodbye is different from No because it implies that we have had involvement already, which now needs to end compared to No's refusal to become involved in the first place. Proper decisions cut the past away unequivocally and that penetrating quality forms an open door that otherwise does not arise.

Vision Quest. The seeker needs to find answers to deep issues of concern that expand power and wisdom. The future unfolds according to the customs of what has gone before unless we take control of it and shape it to our desire. To do this compels us to have a vision of how we want it to be; this vision has to be very clear, clear-cut and positive converted into intention. They differ don't they - vision and intention? The first is a bit unreal and the second is much more single-minded and willful. For a dream to become real there must be cooperation. Nothing can be done without gaining the assistance of other people - this takes talent, perhaps influence, , even motivation. It is not always crucial to tender something such as money or money's worth.

Another theme that appears in song, myth and epic is redemption. Each of us, yearns to be released from the pain of guilt and shame, and purified through atonement. Sorry, the sixth word, is best seen as repairing harm done because we've been inattentive or neglectful to the circumstances of another. The best idea is to make sure we preclude the need to say it by being understanding in advance. Why? Well it's because anyone we upset may well act against us and diminish our odds of achievement of our goals, so it is obviously more prudent to think about others as well as ourselves. It is all to do with being responsible, having a degree of feelings for anyone we've upset and making penance when we've got it wrong. Only then is it possible to prevent or fix any resentment and release the everlasting unpleasantness that otherwise would grow and rankle.

The final journey is the quest for the absolute. This can take the form of spiritual ascendancy, seclusion, surrender and death, a final acknowledgement of the unity of all life. The final stage of our 7 Words classification relates with acceptance; there are times when we simply have to admit what we cannot change. The word is Yes. It would be fine wouldn't it if we were able to make the world exactly the way we envision it - but in actual fact we can't. We always need to swallow what comes, and to take what is not exactly what we asked for. The best secret is to place reliance on the fact that everything sooner or later turns around to our advantage, that the modifications to our plans are all improvements when comprehended in the perspective of the longer term. Unquestionably it's not easy to see it when we are still close and attached to our desires of course not! However hold your fire and you'll see that the unanticipated events, the surprises and disappointments are actually the best bits veiled as trouble.
