Ngalesi sigaba, siqala ukukhohlwa lezo zinkolelo futhi siphinde sithole izilwane njengezimpilo ezinemizwa: ezikwazi ukuthandana, ukuhlupheka, ilukuluku, kanye nokuxhumana. Kungukuphinde sithole lezo esizifundile ukuthi asiziboni.
Izigaba ezincane ezikulesi sigaba zinikeza umbono onezigaba eziningi wokuthi ukulimala kuvamile futhi kwenziwa kanjani.
