FEAST OF the Holy Innocents:

1 Jn 1:5-2:2 the false self is the blockage to my self-fulfillment but this beautiful text, expressed as darkness to light, reveals the path to my true self. If I accept who I truly am God can work with me to be who I am meant to be.

Mt 2: 13-18 a story of Herod a violent man, so disconnected from his true self, he even slayed innocent babies. When false to myself and alienated from truth I too can hurt the vulnerable while also destroying myself.
