C. Presentation and Discussion

INTERSUBJECTIVITY Originally coined by the philosopher Edmund Husserl

(1859 – 1938) is most simply stated as an interchange of thoughts and feelings,

both conscious and unconscious between two persons or subjects. To understand

intersubjectivity, it is necessary first to define the term subjectivity – the

perception/experience of reality from within one’s perspective (both conscious

and unconscious) for this section, Martins Bubers and Karol Wojtyla’s views will be

used as the main framework in understanding intersubjectivity. Both philosophers

were influenced by their religious background they behave in the notion of

concreate experience both refused to regard the human person as a composite of

some kind of dimensions such as animality and rationality. For both views the

human person is total, not dual.

 For Wojtyla, the social dimension is represented by “we relation” and for

Buber the interpersonal is signified by the “I-You relation”

Most of the time we look at our differences and may have labels toward one

another, you can be a “loner” a “party goer” or “easy go lucky”. In our lives

somehow, we have collected and given labels ourselves towards others. Though

we are part of our society we are still different individuals living in this society.

Each of us will have different appearances or points of view, this chapter focuses

on building strength despite our various differences.

On PWDs, there are many categories of PWD or persons with disabilities. To

mention some there are the hearing impaired, diabetic, asthmatic persons. The

process of suspecting, recognizing and identifying the handicap for parents with

PWD will include feelings of shock, sorrow, anger and guilt. Feeling of

impotence/questioning “why me?” some parents turn to religion and consider

“heaven sent blessing in disguise” however, this denies the real implications of

disability.
