Have you heard about Francis from Assisi? I have heard about him since a lot of years ago. This man have meant to me almost all of my bonds with God. I remember when I was a teen I never lived thinking or feeling the grace of God in me, but suddenly this man arrived to my place and turned me into a new way to see the world. Do not ask me how or why, it is simply was. Today was the day of this man (october, 4), this holy man. I believe that he was the only who can live really free on this world, free as a bird, as the leaves, as every things created by God. Freedom is a goal that we search frenetically. But we confuse this word nowadays. There is a difference, a big difference between the modern man freedom and the christian freedom. The first one means “without god neither law”, and the second one means “submission to God”. How can it be possible? The more we accept what we can not change the more free we are.
Today I realized that I need to accept myself such as I am, before to accept the others. I have seen myself trying to be another man but not to fighting to say YES to what I am. I have learnt that there are three ways to live the real life: rebellion, resignation and acceptance. The last one is the harder. It is to understand that things happen for something special. My goal for the future: let God to make what He want, do not think and do not fight for what I want to be but simply to be the one what I am.
I would like to introduce you into the life and thoughts of Francis from Assisi, and the way how his words are  still effective. We live in a present quite similar to the age where he lived. If you think a few our age is totally similar to the middle age: we live a second middle age.
