Embrace the Useless for True Freedom

Cruciform love challenges the societal norms that equate worth with usefulness by highlighting the significance of those deemed 'useless.' Recognizing and valuing those who cannot contribute materially liberates individuals from the pursuit of utility and status. Embracing the dignity of the marginalized fosters genuine human connection and the understanding that our true value lies not in our productivity but in our humanity. By honoring the forgotten, we cultivate a space where everyone is seen and appreciated, which in turn assures us of our own recognition and worth, regardless of societal metrics. Ultimately, relinquishing attachments to superficial measures of success allows for the genuine discovery of self, reflecting the divine image within us all.
