The
whole history of mankind is the history of the need of loving and being
loved. The heart-symbol of friendship and love-has also its norms, its
ethics. To make room for the heart in the harmonious construction of
your personality has nothing to do with mawkishness or even sentimentality.
Young
people, raise your eyes more often towards Jesus Christ! Do not be afraid!
Jesus came not to condemn love but to free love from its ambiguities
and its counterfeits. The human being is a corporeal being. The body
is not just one object among other objects. It is, in the first place,
someone, in the sense that it is a manifestation of the person, a way
of being present to others, of communication, of extremely varied expression.
The body is a word a language. What a marvel, and what a risk at the
same time! Young men and women, have very great respect for your body
and for the bodies of others! Let your body be in the service of your
inner self! Let your gestures, your looks, always be the reflection
of your soul!
