Few days ago one of good friends made me a question,
- Do you have friends?”
- I have just few. –I answered. But, I have a lot of people who I know.
- Me too, he said.
This a good question that I always make to myself too. When I feel lonely, I try to remember my life and see what I have in it; remembering wonderful and sad moments, which made my life how it is now. This summer I went to Rome, and there I met three of my old classmates that I had in my studies in Mexico. It was wonderful to see each other, we laughed, made jokes, and cheated each other. In those moments I saw how my life was built.
Every event, as small as the sand of the sea, is important for the human being, because, life is built of each portion of love, sorrow, joy and sadness.
Our life has to be a service for our brotherhood, just as one priest said: “Actions speak louder than words”. This invites us to demonstrate our being through our deeds. Because our neighbors are created in the same way like I was. There is no reason to make then out of our existence or life, with the same love God gives to them life, and life in abundance. In order to be one being in Him.
If you don’t have friends, you have to give yourself the opportunity to make some, because God gives you that freedom to choose yours. Imagine what opportunity you have! God is really kind!
“Love your neighbor as yourself.”
