Jojo Magadia, SJ, 22 Dec 2006, Church of the Gesù, Ateneo de Manila … for Misa de Gallo Mass of 23 December 2006 A good definition is a statement that tells us the meaning of some thing.

It starred Robert De Niro and it told the true story of a man who wakes up after being in a coma from a sleeping sickness for over 20 years. We see him rejoice as he experiences the full rush of life, but then the sickness returns. The scene where he is put back to bed, still awake, but knowing he will be returning to a sleeping prison forever is one of the most anguished you'll ever see. And it's what sprang to mind when Schumacher gave his retirement speech at Monza. I watched this man, responsible for so many unbelievable...

Taong 2005 at isang ordinaryong middle class pinoy si Noah. Nagpakita sa kanya ang Diyos at sinabing "Pagkataposng isang taon ay bubuhos ang ulan at babahain ang buong kapuluan ng Pilipinas. Gusto kong gumawa ka ng isang malaking arko at isakay mo rito ang pares-pares na mga hayop at mga mag-asawang pilipino sa iba't ibang kapuluan." Ibinigay kay Noah ang specs ng Arko at taos puso nitong tinanggap ang responsibilidad na sagipin ang sambayanang Pilipino sa napipintong pagbaha. Lumipas ang taon, muling nagpakita ang Diyos kay Noah. Walang...

It just wouldn't turn. He was flicking it right, left, straight. Our Goodyear's were not as good as those Bridgestone's on the Mclaren. We had a car that was a full second and a half slower than our rivals. But there he was, forcing it to turn, dragging it by the neck. The hair on the back of my neck stood up. The car was suffering from massive understeer, I was so sure that he would have gone off, atleast thrice in that one lap. But despite all this, he was inside on sectors 1,2 and 3. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I felt...

I answered yes, because sa question na nga nanggaling na the tree fell. The tree fell, its fall existed. Its just that nobody perceived it, it only means nobody perceived its existence. I dont agree with Berkleys maxim of - To be perceived is to exist. A being exists even if no one perceives its existence. If I live in a cave all my life, I exist, even if nobody saw me live.
