We all know well that we can do things for others and in the process crush them, making them feel that they are incapable of doing things by themselves. To love someone is to reveal to them their capacities for life, the light that is shining in them.
Jean VanierLove doesn't mean doing extraordinary or heroic things. It means knowing how to do ordinary things with tenderness.
Jean VanierWhen we begin to believe that there is greater joy in working with and for others, rather than just for ourselves, then our society will truly become a place of celebration.
