Le Blog du Curé de Fontenay-le-Comte n° 1.060 : Une année marquante

Each month, I ask you a question asking for an update on your life. This time, what is the year that was most prominent in your life and why?
To start thinking, I throw myself into the water: the year that marked me the most, it may be that I spent working as an agent of hospital services at the Centre Hospitalier Regional de Grenoble in the sixties.
Work hard physically, not always very appetizing: we described ourselves as "empty-potties! But constant contact, very rich, with patients and caregivers.
Far from the Vendee, in This cosmopolitan city of Grenoble, discover the Muslims, Jews, Protestants, Orthodox (Armenians or others), migrants, making contact with working-class life and labor unions, political parties, too, from all sides; contacts with sects; opening to tourism in the Alps, the world of culture, diversity in all its forms; mountain walks with other youth workers in the hospital, etc. ...
is probably there that I discovered that the single model Vendee, where everyone thinks it is he who has the truth, was not tenable and turned back the sense of history.
Indeed, as said Leopold Senghor, former President of the Republic of Senegal: "The future is mixing! Also, I am very grateful to these men and women of all backgrounds, all religions and all cultures, which then were able to get me out of my old photographs and open myself to the universal and the richness of diversity . Although I have much to do to be worthy of what they taught me their testimony always illuminates my way. But mostly, I felt that was the way of the Gospel to me and said.
And you, what is the year you the most? Even if you write not comment, why not talk with family or friends, taking time to reflect personally. Opportunity then to give thanks to God and to others!

Le Blog du Curé de Fontenay-le-Comte n° 1.059 : Sacré Gainsbourg !

There was talk yesterday of the 20th anniversary of the death of Serge Gainsbourg. It reminded me of an old memory. The scene takes place in Tehran in August 1970: an eternity! With Andrew, priest now also in the Vendee, head of ecumenism in the diocese, we return to Kathmandu, backpack, school children by race, and we take a well deserved rest on the lawn of one of these wonderful gardens public that Iran has a secret (oh roses of Ispahan!).
Then comes a group of young people who engage in conversation with us, interrupting our nap, "Where are you from?" Where are you? Why you travel well? Do you like our country? " Sewing up, we bind friendships with these jeans and these young girls in mini-skirts (Yes! There, times have changed!), And they invite us home. Music in background! Surprise: they come and go in a loop, a French song which seems to please them well. This is the famous song by Serge Gainsbourg we all know: "I love you ... moi non plus", released in 1969.
Question (always in English): "This song is very well known, but we do not understand French and you do not know what she means, can you translate it?" And here we are, Andrew and me, trying to give them the meaning of this song a bit special, with many circumlocutions, you get the picture? "I go and I just ..." Sacred
Gainsbourg! Unknowingly, we took that day in a rather tricky ...
Young then invite us to stay dine and sleep at home but was going to happen? And, secondly, we needed to continue our journey: Europe was still far away. Thereafter, continuing our tour, Andrew and myself, we said between us everywhere, at all latitudes, the young are the same, and all they are looking for true love. Reminds us in his famous Serge Gainsbourg song "Javanese": "Life is not worth living without love!" You may also hummed: "But who are without love?" Have you
of humor? I leave you with a memorable reflection of Gainsbourg: "If Christ had died in an electric chair, all the little Christians would chair a little gold around his neck." Sacred
Gainsbourg! Sacred
Iran also, population overwhelmingly Muslim, so endearing, that will surely happen one day, too, to fully unlock!
The Spirit of God is not also present over there than here?

Le Blog du Curé de Fontenay-le-Comte n° 1.058 : Avez-vous rédigé votre testament ?

To my amazement, within a few days, two people have shared their wills. Not for me to confide that they would bequeath their collection of stamps or their favorite canary, nor tell me who would inherit their property, but I submit the message they intended to leave their families when the time comes the big start.
A spiritual testament, somehow, as a record of their lives together discovery and appeals. I found this approach very exciting and very relevant! Indeed, people do not seventy, eighty or more years on this earth without having observed, experienced, matured and grown up! Why, when the time comes, do not take the time to take stock? To measure the progress, obstacles, passages made, the progress made? Through the life we led, whatever it was, what have we tried to construct, transmit, share, testify?
It gave me an idea: What if everyone took the trouble to make a brief assessment of writing all this, all that was his life? By giving a little time, of course, the season of Lent, for example, or the time of the next year ...
Many say they are in effect: "Oh, my life has been extraordinary! I did what I could, but if it over again ..." No! There is no recruiting! Your life has been what it was, period! No question of wanting to repeat the past or to embellish. But there comes a time when it may be well to cast a look of peace on the years, and reap the essential message.
The will is often a mirror of life! Do what little work is the opportunity to read our experiences in the light of God!

PS: Rarely in comments, but very often by mail, or through verbal exchanges, I heard people worry over some comments a bit "complex". I quote you received this response yesterday: "I have trouble with these comments a bit complicated, and besides, I do not always know what they mean! Finally, there is probably not essentially because readers are mainly interested in the contents of the notes. But maybe could you say what are you waiting for a comment that is at least interesting and accessible to all? Is this possible? Large thank you! "
This type of problem is not new to this blog! At the same time, I think we should respect the mode of expression of each! Everyone does with what it is, and I want to thank all those who have ventured to put some words in comment on this blog, whatever. That said, I'd rather see the comments not as an exegesis, intelligent, no doubt, yet complex, that j 'I meant or not, but as a place of sharing Brotherly simple, accessible to all. Not in the form of speech, but, in practice, through sharing of experience. For example, we tell how one considers a spiritual testament staff, or if it does not happen to us wanting to be the leader, etc ... : The concrete, the life, the experiences of fraternal, although related to the topic of the day and inviting us to trust each other and hope ...
What do you think?
