We were created to become like Christ, not by effort alone, but because Christ lives in us. Through the Holy Spirit, we are transformed, putting off the old self and putting on Christ.

Loneliness is one of the worst experiences we can have. Often the holidays are some of the worst times for feeling lonely. As young people we find ourselves surrounded by people and yet often alone. We spend a lot of time looking for the "one" who will be our great love. When we are old, we often realize that there are few people who really care and many who do care die and leave us—alone.
