Message for the New Year 2008
As stated in my piece "Bagong Taon"; Is it Really New?", I quoted from The New York Times editorial of 31 December 1967, the following which I would like to share with you in welcoming year 2008:
"But in the natural world there are no such boundaries. There are cycles and eternal rhythms not only all about us but throbbing through us. This is a world not only of bud and blossom and seed but of breath and pulse and sentient nerves. It is a world of growth and ripening and rest and growth again, a world of rain and snowflake and ice crystal, of wind and sun and starlight. Who ever tried to sum up sunlight, or rain or the breath of a newborn child?"
