How To Relive Gall Bladder Attack

DEAR ...

Greetings from Rome, where I am a few days. I'm giving a course to a group of religious trainers from various countries. The course is in English, the idiom that I have pretty well. In the back seat of the course I made a stop in the Church of Jesus . My surprise was to attend a performance of great charm. It was in fact presented in the brief life of St. Ignatius Loyola. The text was very simple sandwiched by classical music (corali. ..) and accompanied by lighting alternated in various sectors of the chapel dedicated to St. Ignatius. Towards the end of the performance, the church was fully lit so it could cover all the details. A triumph of color that made me hold my breath. I fed long moments of beauty. Just an experience like this to ease the strain of long hours of instruction, which are very rewarding.

I greet you dearly.

DEAR FRIENDS ...

Before praying Compline and go to sleep, I send you this beautiful text of Prime Mazzolari: Help to be "

In the other one does not enter as a fortress, but as enter into a forest

in a beautiful sunny day.

It needs to be affectionate to those who enter as an entrance for those who leave to enter,

from pariah of, respectively, fraternally.

You enter a person not to possess it, but as a guest,

with respect, admiration, veneration

not dispossessed, but to keep him company,

to help you better know each other, to give awareness of forces still unexplored,

to give a hand to be fulfilled, to be himself.

Until next time ...

DEAR FRIENDS ...

Today is the feast of St. Francis. I like to remember this holy returning a page of "secular breviary" by G. Ravasi.

One night he heard Francis one voice: "I'm dying." He was a monk who was moaning. Francis asked him what was wrong: "I'm starving." "Soon, all standing. Prepare a meal for all at once. It should not be a brother die of hunger, but even that feels embarrassed to eat alone. "One night snack austere, no doubt. Stale bread, rape camps, perhaps the eggs ... What else? Water from the stream. Joy for dessert ...

(Julien Green)

was the night between 3 and 4 October 1226, a Saturday, and after having blessed his brothers, Francis of Assisi was blowing the Porziuncola. We remind ourselves this holy dear to all mankind through a "foil" derived from the biography St. Francis, God's Jester (1984), written by one of the greatest French writers of the twentieth century, Julien Green (1900-98). The fineness of the true holiness is all that attention to not humiliate the hungry monk.
Hypocrites would, yes, given food, but by sitting around, standing, almost greed to compassion, while they could flaunt their rigor intact inner discipline. Francis, however, is to sit all the poor canteen because the love and respect for others must prevail over any compliance or ascetic practice. We know that this was the behavior of Christ, "glutton and drunkard" in the eyes of its judges arrogant and Puritans, it was ready to stay at the same level of sinners and the least, is not aware that the man must be a slave to the rule but the rule should be helpful to man for a more authentic life and serene. The weakness must be supported and healed,

unreported and humiliated.

Sunday GOOD!

How To Master Bat Good For Guys

DEAR FRIENDS ...



'll join you this morning with the thought of St. Augustine, who underlined the difficulty of penetrating the human heart:

"If the depth is an abyss, we feel that the perhaps man's heart is an abyss? Men can talk, we can see them through the actions of their members, we can hear them in their speeches, but which one thought it penetrates, but in which the heart is investigated? "

When you succeed, even if briefly, to exceed the threshold into the heart of a person, open horizons unimaginable ...
