E’ Natale

E’ Natale ogni volta
che sorridi a un fratello
e gli tendi la mano.
E’ Natale ogni volta
che rimani in silenzio
per ascoltare l’altro.
E’ Natale ogni volta
che non accetti quei principi
che relegano gli oppressi
ai margini della società.
E’ Natale ogni volta
che speri con quelli che disperano
nella povertà fisica e spirituale.
E’ Natale ogni volta
che riconosci con umiltà
i tuoi limiti e la tua debolezza.
E’ Natale ogni volta
che permetti al Signore
di rinascere per donarlo agli altri.

(Madre Teresa di Calcutta)
