For many of us, mansions, exotic fleets of vehicles, chains of businesses, high academic certificates, beautiful wife, handsome husband, healthy and responsible children, positions of power and authority, fame, etc; makes one a human being worth existing.
However, the satisfaction of the above without the three assets am about to expose does not really qualify one as human. Created in the image and likeness of God, the human being ought to resemble God by possessing the following assets; a good heart, an ear that listens and hands that help others.
Men and women having good hearts are rare in the world. Only few people are ready to listen patiently to the stories of others. Very many hands are slow to offer a helping hand when the need arises. The bottom line of a good heart, a listening ear and a helping hand is Love.
We are human beings when we love one another but inhumane when we hate one another.
Love.
-Fr Abiagom Augustine cm
