Democracy A democracy is a coun try in which everyone has an equal right to feel superior to the other fellow. -Telegram, Worcester. A Lesson in Sharing A few weeks ago I was invited to preach at a con- celebrated Mass in San Antonio, Tex., with Ar chbishop Flores presiding. Before the final dismissal he made an announcement, asking for prayers and financial support in helping the archdiocese relocate some of the Cuban refi This same appeal has made by churchmen of all denominations throughout the United States. After the ceremony was over, I was saying" my farewells to a small group and one of the women put a sharp question to me: "Why does the archbishop have to be so political?" She was referring to the Cuban crisis. I restrained myself and said, "Human beings are suf fering..." Human suffering can often be traced to political systems and unjust laws, but it is human suffering nonetheless. Sharing is the only real way to alleviate it. Your willingness to share your time, your energy, your wealth, your very life if necessary, is in the last analysis, the only real test of your character. What's so special about sharing with those you know and love, Jesus said, "even the pagans do that." The test comes when you help carry the burdens of those whom you do not know or love except within the context of the brotherhood of all human beings under God. I'd like to tell you a little about Father Walter Ciszek who spent nearly 20 years in Russian prison camps as a Soviet prisoner. He was a recent guest on our nationally syndicated TV series, "'Christopher Closeup," where he said that he learned to share, really share, in the midst of Russian criminals. Yet, despite his own personal misery and deprivation, he shared his small ration of bread. They performed hard labor each day so every morsel of food was precious. His fellow captives also expressed love by their hospitality. "They would share with me. And in the camp if you would share a piece of bread with someone, that meant you respected him. That meant you were giving part of your life away." Today sharing doesn't require that we give our lives away, but it does call for sacrifice, and special effort, as in the Cuban refugee crisis. Building up the habit of sharing in the soirit of love is the highest spiritual work and the most pleasing to our loving Father "who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints" (Col. 1:12). In the words of the im mortal Snoopy, "Happiness is sharing." Superior The girl who thinks no man is good enough for her may be right--and then she may be left. -Windsock, Cherry Point.
