Solidarity Units
Let´s walk together
Author: P. Fernando Pascual, L.C | Source: Catholic.net
Solidarity unity arises when people, peoples, cities, provinces, or regions come together from common ideals, with the gaze placed on justice, reception, love, and hope.
This may involve sacrifices, for example when a richer geographical area accepts "losing" goods and money in favor of another poorer and needy area of aid.
But these sacrifices are worthwhile in the perspective of affection that unites people as a Fatherland, as a solidarity State, as a project of walking together towards Concord and peace.
It hurts, however, to find people or groups, sometimes majority in some city or region, that defend the rupture, that protest if they are asked sacrifices in favor of others, who seek only their profit until breaking the coexistence.
In the face of those who promote breaks and independence, based on selfishness and the promise to live better at the expense of leaving aside the neediest, it is urgent to resurrect in the hearts the mutual affection and love for a justice that also accepts Sacrifices for the other.
The world has seen and sadly sees conflicts, violence, and wars in territories were some groups, with or without majority support, seek to impose the rupture with promises of the type "if we are alone we will live better”.
The tears and sufferings of those who pay for non-solidarity proposals should open our eyes to denounce independence movements based on the lack of solidarity or even hatred for other peoples, and to promote healthy ways of harmony, Mutual understanding, and support for the development of the poorest.
