Solitude - a sterile state

10/02/2005

Someone says: ‘I want to save my soul’, and in order to do so, he believes he is justified in distancing himself from others. Well, this ignoramus must learn first of all that it is impossible to save oneself on one’s own. Why? In the first place, we can never be creators on our own. To have a child we must come out of solitude, which is a sterile state, and find someone else, a woman or a man. Those who wish to remain alone will not only fail to save themselves but will also reap sterility, an abundance of it! To be saved, to enter into the light of God, we must unite ourselves with all those on earth who think of him, who pray for his kingdom and who have decided to work for its coming.
