The Crucifix Is the Central Symbol of the Christmas Tree

Life is brutal, and it is tainted by malevolence. You have to find within your the capability to withstand the catastrophe of life. And you find that through responsibility. That's a voluntary thing associated with the acceptance of hell. The good isn't something trivial. The good is what keeps you away from hell. But the pursuit of that good, well, that's what lends meaning to life. It lends the meaning to life that enables you to stand up under the load of life.
