In the ABS- CBN Christmas episode of "Gift of Life," a familiar phrase caught our attention. "Dapat perfect" was mentioned, bringing back memories of the college psychology lessons of our professor, Sr. Jose Bagtas, ICM, in turn a disciple of Fr. Bulatao, SJ and Papa Freud. Sr. Jose said that most of the unhappiness in the world can be traced to frustrations over our ideas of how things MUST or SHOULD be, often left unsaid to others concerned.
Reality, of course, does not always purr like a contented cat or well-maintained engine. More often, it screeches and cranks . A lot of mediation would have been unnecessary if ground rules and expectations were set from the start of human relationships.
