A previously unpublished text by Pope Francis has been released, offering a message to young people about believing in love and the adventure of lifelong commitment. In the prologue to the YouCat book “Love Forever,” the Pope encourages young couples to believe in God and in the possibility of a lifelong love. He acknowledges the challenges faced by young couples but emphasizes that true love aspires to be definitive.
Pope Francis uses the metaphor of Argentine tango to describe love as a free play between man and woman, full of erotic fascination and attraction. He warns against a culture that avoids commitment and advocates for adequate preparation for marriage, including premarital courses and a deeper formative path. The Pope’s message emphasizes the importance of commitment and sincere dedication in achieving a full life.
