È trascorso più di un secolo da quando a Fatima, nel 1917, la Vergine Maria apparve a Lucia Dos Santos e ai suoi cuginetti Francisco e Jacinta Marto. L'Europa era sprofondata in un periodo buio, martoriata dalla Grande guerra.

Una responsabilità così grande in mani tanto piccole: Lucia aveva appena dieci anni, eppure la sua vita era già segnata.

Se avessi, in modo improvviso e inaspettato, l'occasione di passare un po' di tempo a faccia a faccia con il Papa, cosa gli chiederesti?

«L'amicizia di Gesù ci ricorda che Dio mette una virgola dove noi credevamo possibile solo un punto finale.» L'amicizia è uno dei valori più importanti per ognuno di noi, ma anche un aspetto della vita così naturale, e a volte dato per scontato, che raramente ci fermiamo a riflettere su cosa significhi davvero la parola "amico". Se ci pensiamo, l'amico è chi cammina sempre al nostro fianco, anche se separato da migliaia di chilometri o da decine di anni di distanza: nell'amicizia, il lontano e la distanza sono dimensioni del tutto relative.

In the ever more rapidly advancing process of historical evolution, man is confronted with enormous opportunities, but also with colossal perils. For him, the future is not only hope, but sorrow a nightmare, indeed.

Mark DeJesus found himself deep within the clutches of ROCD, but did not know it for a long time.

Our parents before us understood that strife is rarely far from even the best of us, and they girded themselves for warfare, actual and spiritual.
