After college, I began job hunting. I found a job through a temp agency, but I was getting paid off the books, without health insurance. They asked me to lie to the customers I called, in order to get their business. I considered this really wrong and totally against my values! I decided to quit, even though it was a difficult decision because I was the financial support of my family. I felt I had to do God’s will, leaving behind everything that went against him.

My family was in shock, and I often felt like crying, but knew I couldn’t. I had to be “up” to help the rest of the family think positive.

Three weeks later, I found a full-time job in a film company.

Fratellanza

Fratellanza

La fratellanza, l’essere figli di uno stesso Padre, può essere la radice di ogni pacifismo. In questo stralcio tratto dal volume “Rivolta cattolica” Igino Giordani scrive quasi una invocazione, un poetico appello che ci costringe ad alzare lo sguardo e ci apre gli occhi su chi è il fratello, quel fratello che può essere catalogato come nemico, come straniero, come migrante, ma sempre fratello è. E’ un appello che scritto nel lontano 1925 ci può toccare le corde più profonde e ci interpella per essere costruttori di pace.
