And if we spend parts of our day alone, we can do everything for the sake of our brothers and sisters, like true \u201capostles of dialogue\u201d.<\/em>  \u2026 Each time we are in contact with one or more brothers or sisters, directly or indirectly, by means of a telephone call, a letter, a job carried out for their benefit or prayers said on their behalf, we all feel that we are involved in an unending dialogue, that we are called to dialogue.  How?  By being open to our brothers and sisters, by listening, empty of ourselves, to what they want, to what they say, to what worries them, to what they desire. Once we have done this, we give what is desired and what is appropriate.  And if there are times and hours that I must dedicate to myself (eating, resting, dressing, and so on), I can try to do all these things in view of my brothers and sisters, always mindful of those who await my love.  In this way and only in this way, by continually living the \u201cspirituality of unity\u201d or \u201cof communion\u201d, can I effectively contribute towards making my Church \u201ca home and a school of communion\u201d; I can further the unity of the Church with the faithful of other Churches or ecclesial Communities; and I can achieve, together \u00a0with people of other religions or cultures, ever larger spaces of universal fraternity.\u00a0\u2026  Let\u2019s feel that we are \u201capostles of dialogue\u201d and live accordingly. A 360 degree dialogue, certainly, but starting out on the right foot: by loving every neighbour we meet, and the measure of our love is the gift of our life. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>Chiara Lubich<\/em><\/p>\n<p> <em>Taken from: \u201cConversazioni in collegamento telefonico\u201d Citta Nuova ed. pag. 667, &#8211; 2004<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[:es]Chiara Lubich nos recuerda que todos estamos llamados al di\u00e1logo.
