We all aspire to happiness. And the happiness to which we all aspire is God, so we are all journeying on toward this happiness we call Heaven which in reality is God. And Mary helps us, she encourages us to ensure that every moment of our life is a step forward on this exodus, on this journey toward God. May she help us in this way to make the reality of heaven, God's greatness, also present in the life of our world.

Only openness to the mystery of God, who is love, can assuage our hearts’ search for truth and happiness; only the prospect of eternity can give authentic value to historical events and, especially to the mystery of human fragility, suffering and death.

‘You, therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.’ (Mt 5:48)
But who could become perfect? Our perfection is living humbly as children of God, doing his will in practice.

Beauty is one of mankind’s greatest needs; it is the root from which the branches of our peace and the fruits of our hope come forth. Beauty also reveals God because, like him, a work of beauty is pure gratuity; it calls us to freedom and draws us away from selfishness.
