Living "The Life"


Ang misyon ng bawat isa sa atin sa mundong ito ay ang pagkilos para sa kapakanan ng ating kapwa. Ano mang kapos sa adhikaing ito ay tuwirang balewala.

Levinas stresses to us that our life can and only will be able to reach its full potential when we always put the Other as our main priority. That we should not expect anything in return and just reach out to the Other.
What is life when we are to just enjoy things with ourselves? Isn't that just lonely? We are called to live a life of selflessness.

I guess we can all start doing this where we are everyday for the next 2-3 years… in school… There are so many people whom we can still reach out and practicing being "men-for-others." There is nothing better than practicing and applying Levinas' philosophy in our own homes and school which is our second home.
