Today, I am glad to have taken a break from all the fuzz of academic life. I just had a recollection and what a serene experience it was. :)

This year's experience is quite new because I think it is the first that I shed not even a tear. I was just plainly glad of the experience of having a break for a couple of hours from reality. What's quite interesting about this recollection is the fact that we dealt mostly of social issues and I for one is very much in to it. :) We viewed a documentary entitled "Canvas of the Society" wherein the usual last supper painting of Jesus with the 12 disciples, was modified and changed into "with the 12 impoverished children." It was a unique work of art and inline with our Humanities Studies, the art's power to bring out an Aesthetic emotion in unceasingly overpowering ---- just the instant you look, you would feel the emotions.

What really struck me most was the fact that my seatmate expressed her "shamefulness" towards her self. We discussed about sympathy and how people settle only to such state of emotion after an eye opening experience. She professed that she feels totally awful of herself because of the guilt of settling only to sympathy and never really taking any rightful actions to what she feels. She was really crying out her shame and disgust as she shared to the whole class... it was touching on my part (even if how Ironic it may be). I was moved by the fact that she was disturbed of her actions. I think this recollection was a good start for her to re-examine herself and her actions. It was beautiful seeing her cry *evil me!* because for me, it marked the start of her conversion. Shedding tears in front of a big crowd while speaking out her emotions is embarrassing as showing your weakness to the people, but the act itself is humbling. I can't fully relay why I was intensely moved by her reaction but plainly seeing her humbling action was just beautiful.

I wish, if not all, many of the people will also realize one day their "pagkukulang" to the society, to their neighbors. I wish, many will go through feeling ashamed and disgusted of themselves and reach conversion. I wish, many will have the same courage as my classmate had of speaking out her emotions to the big crowd despite embarrassment and accepting humility with it. :)

This week had a good start and I'm hoping for a more beautiful week ahead.

It feels so nice to be happy once again. It's an Ecstasy

... how do you show bravery when you are losing reasons to fight and you're slowly being drowned by fear?...
