About this publication

The question of friendship opens this text prepared for the summer experience «I colli e i simposi di Roma». Seneca and Cicero provide the starting point for distinguishing a relationship based on personal advantage from friendship sustained by goodwill and the pursuit of what is good.

The reflection develops through Psalm 139 and the theme of the person created by God. It connects wonder at human life with personal dignity and the responsibility to grow together, concluding with an invitation to root the future in faith and truth.
