This document discusses the relationship between rights and obligations. It provides examples from Roman times where debtors would have body parts literally cut off and sold if they failed to repay their debts. Nowadays, failing to repay debts could result in a creditor suing and selling a debtor's property. Obligations are a legal necessity to perform or not perform certain actions. Rights are not absolute and must be balanced with the rights of others. Contracts and laws can create obligations, while quasi-contracts involve obligations arising from lawful and voluntary unilateral acts without consent.

Natural Obligation -payment cannot be recovered anymore because the recipient has the the right to receive although he has the right to make a legal demand. Example: yung sa may interest kanina walang karapatan si creditor na mag make ng legal demand sa interest pero kung magbibigay naman si debtor ng pera or babayadan niya yung interest pwede yun kunin ni creditor kasi pwede siya mag receive but not to make a legal demand for debtor because of not paying the interest. 4.
