HAPPY NEW YEAR ! BEST WISHES FOR A GOOD LIFE

What can we wish for the New Year? We are all convinced that it should be well living, though we all don’t agree with the significance of it.
If we should do a research about the meaning of good life, we can have several answers: from a big amount of money, to physical wellness, to the lovers of the day, to success in TV or in his own career, to serenity, to the desired job position, to generosity towards the others, to overwhelming of the opponents and something more.
However all around there are insecurity and discomfort about future and because of all the problems of everyday life the idea of well living is not clear and not always the same
Sometimes it can seem a sheer utopianism........
Best wishes for a good life

Auguri per una vita buona

You are presenting in a very real way, through your work and special attention for the poorer one's among them, the love which God wants to show to each and every human being.....

Bien que eso es muy importante para el desarrollo de la humanidad, el mandamiento es sobre todo una invitación que Dios nos hace cada día: desear y saber ser fecundos. Esta invitación debería comprometer y orientar cada ser humano durante su entera vida. Para el educador, especialmente para el educador cristiano, significa aún más.
