Envisaging And Engendering An Open World
Moving Beyond Ourselves
-
“a law of ekstasis”
-
a sense of esteem, an appreciation of the value of the other.
-
Some peripheries are close to us, in city centres or within our families.
Beyond A World Of “Associates”
-
”concerned with their duties, their social status, their professional position within society”
A Universal Love That Promotes Persons
-
The man on the roadside, bruised and abandoned, was a distraction, an interruption from all that; in any event, he was hardly important.
The Value of Solidarity
-
the conscious and careful cultivation of fraternity.
- “Service always looks to their faces, touches their flesh, senses their closeness and even, in some cases, ‘suffers’ that closeness and tries to help them.”
