I directed my soul to wisdom, and in purity I found her. With her I gained understanding from the first.
-Sir 51:20
Reflection:
Ideals, if they are authentic, if they are human, are not dreams: they are duties, especially for us Christians.
The more the sounds of the storm disturb the horizon of our history, the more such ideals must grip our attention. And ideals are energies; they are hopes.
-Pope Paul VI
Prayer:
Help me never to become so cynical, O Lord, that I stop dreaming. Let me never stop aiming for my ideals, even when I know that I might fall short.
