True love of self

Unhealthy love of self is fatal. A person who only focuses on himself is on a road to self-destruction. It is in the human person's very identity to long for communion with others, and this desire for communion helps us to rein in our never-ending desire for self-fulfillment, addressing it in a healthier direction.

Born to be free

"It was for liberty that Christ freed us."
To live by the Spirit is to live in freedom, and this freedom is always projected to something higher, to something noble: the true, the good, the beautiful.
The journey to freedom is never easy because it requires us to strip ourselves of each and every security we have. True freedom is not some haughty or arrogant independence. It is rather based on the awareness that I come from God and I am going back to God; everything in between is passing.
