It was a silent night when He was born on a manger, in a stable in Bethlehem. Only the gentle lowing of the cows and the muffled braying of the donkey whispered welcome to the world. No crying out in pain by Mary, His Mother, who smiled in ecstatic adoration at the little Child Jesus, the Promised Redeemer of the world. Joseph held back an awed gasp at first sight of Him, whom he knew was his God.
Silent Night, Holy Night that was the first Christmas. Might it not have been the message in a dream to the sleeping world of how simple and peaceful life would be and should be, without the heavy demands of human attachments and vanities, and the drumming noise of enmities with others and with one’s conscience over fame and fortune?

Who is Dennise Velasco? Dennise is an activist, labor organizer, and human rights defender. I consider him a good friend since our days in the student movement in the late 1990s.
He grew up in a working-class neighborhood in Valenzuela. He majored in management as an undergrad at the Polytechnic University of the Philippines. He became an activist after joining the Students for National Democracy.
I first met him in 1998 in Diliman when he represented activist groups from PUP for youth consultations on various social issues. This was right before the founding of Anakbayan. We were part of a group of students in Metro Manila who volunteered in a peasant immersion program in Southern Tagalog in 1999.
