31. The Meaning of Life
“Man cannot live without love.
He remains a being
that is incomprehensible to himself;
his life is senseless
if love is not revealed to him,
if he does not encounter love,
if he does not experience it
and make it his own,
if he does not participate
intimately in it.”
--John Paul II

60. Freedom and Love
“Love consists of a commitment which limits
one’s freedom—it is a giving of the self, and
to give oneself means to limit one’s freedom
on behalf of the other. This might seem to be
something negative or unpleasant, but love
makes it a positive, joyful and creative thing.
“Freedom exists for the sake of love. Man longs
for love more than for freedom—freedom is
the means, and love is the end.”
---BJP2G, “Love and Responsibility”

118. “THE ANIMA CHRISTI”
Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O good Jesus, hear me.
Within Thy wounds hide me.
Permit me not to be separated from Thee.
From the malignant enemy defend me.
In the hour of my death call me
And bid me come to Thee
That with Thy saints I may praise Thee
Forever and ever. Amen.
Editor's Notes
Whatever I do with my body, I do with my soul. Whatever I do with my soul, I do with my body. Death is unnatural. The worst thing that can happen to you. WHAT IS death? “Separation of body and soul.” We become “incomplete persons,” “disembodied souls.” Not part of God’s original plan for us!

WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN, VICE VERSA, the most NATURAL THING is to want to express that SEXUALLY, right? (SEMO!) So, if it’s TRUE LOVE, go for it! BUT if it’s missing one of these 5 “F”’s, then it’s NOT TRUE LOVE—IT’S SOMETHING ELSE: (selfish pleasure, think it’s true love, emotions, infatuation, biological urges, manipulation, lack of self-control, “hooking up”—like scratching an itch.). “But what if you REALLY love someone?” EXACTLY—”TRUE LOVE.” Love always does what’s good for the OTHER person. If you really LOVE someone, you’ll WAIT for them. What’s the OPPOSITE OF LOVE (USE.) Is it OK to USE someone if they AGREE TO IT (like porn, prostitution, or even “hooking up”)? NO. We always TREAT PEOPLE ACCORDING TO THEIR DIGNITY, EVEN IF THEY DON’T’ WANT IT.

If you really LOVE someone, you’ll WAIT for them. What’s the OPPOSITE OF LOVE (USE.) Is it OK to USE someone if they AGREE TO IT (like porn, prostitution, or even “hooking up”)? NO. We always TREAT PEOPLE ACCORDING TO THEIR DIGNITY, EVEN IF THEY DON’T’ WANT IT.
GUYS, you can’t win, right? HOLDING DOOR OPEN IS A GREAT WAY FOR YOU GUYS to REMIND YOURSELVES TO BE CHRIST TO US. LADIES, do we like gentleman? TRUE gentlemen. Don’t PLAY GAMES. Love is not a game. The surest road to NEVER FINDING TRUE LOVE is to start playing games. Then other people PLAY GAMES back to defend themselves. And we start seeing how MUCH WE CAN TAKE while pretending to GIVE.
Go thru each, then: [Give a GIFT BOX and keep taking it back and giving it away!] for “YOU ONLY.” Once we give a TOTAL GIFT of ourselves, that’s it—it’s given. WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN, VICE VERSA, the most NATURAL THING is to want to express that SEXUALLY, right? (SEMO!) So, if it’s TRUE LOVE, go for it! BUT if it’s missing one of these 5 “F”’s, then it’s NOT TRUE LOVE—IT’S SOMETHING ELSE: (selfish pleasure, think it’s true love, emotions, infatuation, biological urges, manipulation, lack of self-control, “hooking up”—like scratching an itch.). “But what if you REALLY love someone?” EXACTLY—”TRUE LOVE.” Love always does what’s good for the OTHER person.

OMGosh. “WE are the cure”, male & female together!
Our world is dying: culture of death. We are dead until we love.
Authentic love can turn things around. We are equipped to love. It’s in us. With God’s help we can build a civilization of love and a culture of life and beauty.
Only love makes us truly human. The only appropriate response to a “person” is love.
Our primordial relationships were ruptured at the Fall. God and us, us within ourselves, male/female (family, and therefore society), all of Creation.
Authentic male/female love can heal the world.
OMGosh. “WE are the cure”, male & female together!
Pass it on.
Love is not an option. It’s the only way. It is the only match for a culture of death. “Love is as strong as death.”
Everyone in the world is on the same page. We all share the same hungers and desires.
Self-explanatory.
Our world is starving for authentic love.
The hunger for true love, meaning, authenticity, ecstasy, something lasting is as old as humanity—but new deprivations cause new hungers.
It’s helpful to look at our past, both individually and collectively, but what really matters is where we’re going. What is our destiny as humans, individually and collectively?
Human beings may be made of mud, but they are not called to stay there. They are called to the heights and delights of eternity in heaven with God as the bride at the wedding feast. Human beings rightly rebel against death.
While we are alive, we can always change. We can change greatly. God is the God of second chances.
We are accountable to history. We are accountable to the future. Both individually and collectively. We need to understand our own times and act.
As Christopher West says: “We have forgotten who we are.” If we don’t know who we are, we can’t possibly know where we’re going. Our primary task in life is to understand what it means to be human, to be male and female (two different ways to be a body created in the image of God). We need to discover and live our masculine and feminine identities in Christ. Men and women are not the same. Vive la difference!
It’s feels so foolish not to know who we are, to have forgotten who we are. It’s OK. Baby steps. Theology of the Body.
“Head and Heart Immersion” in Theology of the Body!
The Theology of the Body journey doesn’t happen overnight. It’s a life-long journey. A life-long conversion.
A lot of Theology of the Body has to do with seeing. Seeing rightly. Seeing beauty rightly. Seeing ourselves and each other rightly. Seeing God rightly.
Theology of the Body is the way forward. It’s the new Sexual Revolution. It’s a “Person”-al Revolution. “Can you hear the people sing….?”
It won’t be easy. Don’t give up.
Don’t go it alone. Safety in numbers. Called to marriage? Safety in couples.
On your mark, get set….
“Do not be afraid!” God, Jesus, Bible, angels, BJP2G
Don’t scare people. Remember what it was like when you were lost.
