When I see, in an apartment tragically devastated by the bombardments, a young woman lifting a dirty blanket covering a white piano, then gathering her courage and brilliantly starting a sumptuous piano piece with all her love for it, I say to myself: there it is, the answer to war.
Tomorrow, this young woman may have been killed, but this celestial music will resonate again and again for us… And this young soldier who freely engages in combat out of love for his sisters and brothers, perhaps he too lives the last hours of his life, but at least he will have died while giving his life and he will have by his gesture enlarged the heart of the universe.
Will Putin win and they lose? For the world, they will undoubtedly have lost. But for the universe, they will have won. Because isn’t the great project of the universe, not to win or lose a war, but to love beyond all else?
