"We Stand On a Hill Between, Between the Earth and the Sky"...More on Father Jett's Message to 2011 AGSB, ASG Graduates

"Fr Jett,the new Ateneo President and  commencement speaker, suggested that the AGSB and the ASG graduates will be far better graduates than other masteral graduates from other schools. Having determined that the ultimate end/reason for being is to live in the loving presence of God, when we die (this should be a constant spiritual exercise/reflection for us Ateneans), these are the thing that would result in a new dimension of the graduate's life:

l.  .."That he stands on a hill, between the earth and the sky", that he acquires of the perspective of the realities of ideals vs practice especially on power and wealth...He can not view it in entirely short term basis.

2.   That seal of Ateneo says "Lux in domino" Light in the Lord. We are the light of this earth.

3.   That with regards to power and wealth, he practices CMDD - create, multiply, distribute, and direct power and wealth.  The last one, directing or redirecting wealth and power to the native land resonates with "Our Country is Our Business"



Every generation needs a revolution - an ENTREPRENEURIAL REVOLUTION.
