St. Josemaría Escrivá, Civil War and Forgiveness
"There Be Dragons" is about both kinds of civil war. Essentially we've all got to choose whether to hang on to our resentments or find a way of conquering them. Life can be seen as a series of injustices, of rejections and hurts, or as full of opportunities, of chances to conquer those dragons through the overwhelming desire to replace hatred with love and connection. Many people have it in them to make that heroic choice. They realize that they can make a choice to be free. They have the strength of character to understand that hate is a prison. No one who hates can be free. |
