The Man as a Being

Philiosophy of Man is one of my favorite(next to logic) minor subjects these college days. It's a very interesting subject. And maybe one of the reason why i really liked and enjoyed the Philo. of Man was Father Nonoy(he's a priest). It's just that he thought very well --though his approach was philosophical and hard to understand sometimes.

Philiosophy of Man obviously talks about man perse, the human being who seeks to find meaning in his life.

This article aims to share with you some of the most important things I've learned in my Philosophy of Man subject. Things that inspired me and gave me strength to face the world.

Man is the summit of God’s creation, the most special being in the world. He is the only rational being who exists, has intellect or the capacity to understand things. Being a rational being man has his own free will to do what he wants to do…and this free will is in accordance with his capacity of being a human.

Man is the only kind of being that exists and he is conscious of his existence. He is finite, not perfect and has limitations. Man is existing into the world with a sense of purpose and direction. He is the initiator of all actions and the center of feelings and emotions, capable to love and get hurt. The perfection or completion of man’s existence is death.

Man’s life is a journey. He makes history into the world for he is the only being who can define what history is. His life is full of experiences such as pains, struggles and happiness. All those things are necessary in order for him to understand and appreciate the meaning of life…and suffering makes man improve and find betterment in his life.

Being a man in this world is not easy (fyi) because you have to comply with all the gifts you have as being a human. If you fail to, you defeat the purpose of being a human. Thus, to be called a man is to act like a human being should be acting.

Tatsulok







Lyrics Tatsulok lyrics



Alam n'yo, sa tuwing naririnig ko ang kantang yan, parang naiiyak ako na ewan. Sa totoo lang, lahat ng kantang makabayan hindi ko maiwasan na hindi damdamin ang liriko. Ewan, ganito talaga ako eh.

Noong linggo lang, nanood ako ng ASAP, my isang pursyon don kung saan nag-alay ang lahat ng mga sikat na mang-aawit para sa BAYANi JUAN Fandation ng ABS-CBN na naglalayong pagkaisahin ang lahat ng mga sector ng pamahalaan(pribado man o publiko) at mga NGOs sa ngalan ng bayanihan at para sa isang mas progresibong Pilipinas.

Habang nakikinig ako sa kanta, damang-dama ko na ako ay pilipino. Nang kinanta ang "Tatsulok" ramdam na ramdam ko ang bawat letra, bawat salita ng kanta ay tumatagos sa buo kong pagkatao.

Hindi pula’t dilaw tunay na magkalaban
Ang kulay at tatak ay di syang dahilan
Hangga’t marami ang lugmok sa kahirapan
At ang hustisya ay para lang sa mayaman
Marahil ay natatawa kayo, o di kaya'y sasabihin n'yong "OA" ako. Ngunit subukan n'yong pakinggan at damhin ang nilalaman nang kanta nang sa gayo'y magkaunawaan tayo.

Habang may tatsulok at sila ang nasa tuktok Di matatapos itong gulo

Have you ever tried being greeted in that kind of manner? How's the feeling? If not, what if you have been greeted that way? How would you feel?

hmmm... honestly, I tried being called in a "pssstt" kind of manner by a guy whom i donnot know and phew! ..it feels like your some kind of a cheap girl--hey i am not a dog! But nowadays, seldom you can see a guy who is gentleman enough to respect a girl as she is. That's true.

On the other hand, we can't blame those guys doing those things coz it's like the society is teaching them to do so. Look at what's inside the the Billboards, TV ads, etc, most of them are portray /photos of girls who are almost naked. It's like inviting someone to a sexual activity(well, that's how I see things there).

The thing is you must respect yourself to gain respect in return. But do not generalize things so you cannot hurt anyone.
