Crocifissione

Crucifixion- Giotto

This year I would like to combine my wishes for a happy Easter with a reflection on the importance of love.

We are living in a period of ferocious wars, the likes of which we have not seen for fifty years. There are people forced to emigrate because their lands no longer have water, but where these migrants arrive they are perceived as a threat and not welcomed as an opportunity. Feminicides in Italy occur at a rate of one every three days.

Don’t we know how to love anymore? Or do we underestimate the strength of <<The love that moves the sun and the other stars>> last verse of the Paradise and of the Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri. Yet by cultivating love, things could go much better and humanity could be much happier. It seems incredible, but giving love makes you happy, much more than receiving it.

I think this is the message of Easter, the one that Jesus sends by accepting to die on the cross to open the doors of Paradise for us: love more, love everyone, always love, even beyond death!

Saint Paul, Letter to the Corinthians 13:4-8

 

Sovereign excellence of love

<<Love is patient, it is benign; love does not envy, it does not show off, it does not puff itself up, it does not behave in an indecorous way, it does not seek its own things, it does not get irritated, it does not suspect evil; it does not rejoice in injustice, but rejoices with the truth, tolerates all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails>>
