We begin an exciting series unpacking the wisdom of St John Paul II in his celebrated text, Love and Responsibility. Nicole delves into the 5th sub-chapter, The Ethical Anaylsis of Love. St John Paul II highlights that love itself is a virtue and entails a sense of responsibility for the other. He notes that "love between man and woman is not ready made, it is a becoming and what it becomes depends on the depth of commitment of the persons involved". In an era of low commitment relationships, St John Paul II challenges us to this higher call of learning the value of sacrifice and to seek love in the way God intended.
