9 for the wonderful proclamation it is called to deliver in the third millennium”. Become Revolutionaries who Speak with the Heart Go with your heart and you are sure to face victory. The language of the heart can overcome all barriers and destroy all enemies. The Arabic proverb: “Throw your heart out before you, and run to it”, clearly states that if each one is charged with this sensitivity, readiness and understanding to seek and offer the truth in charity, it becomes the key to transform the other person. ‘Speaking with the heart’ is a strategic choice, an intervention designed to mobilize others and transform others. Saint John Henry Newman’s conviction was, “In order to speak well, it is enough to love well”. Quoting him, Pope Francis explains that true communication is not a strategy, marketing campaign, or manipulation of any kind. Rather true communication, as Newman put it so well, is about who we are, “a reflection of the soul.” It is all about how we love one another. Love is the essence of true communication. Speaking with the heart is essentially feeling for the other and feeling with the other. Perhaps, if this is the echo of the heart in every man and woman, the revolution of cordiality will certainly heal the world, cure humanity of all its woes and transform the world, restoring peace and harmony.
