A saint is not a star. A saint does not resemble a successful man. Christians know this. And they know that there is a big difference between success in the things of the world and success in the things of heaven. The things of heaven, moreover, are the same as those of earth but experienced, so to speak, in a hundredfold way, in a poorer way, but in an endless way, eternal as God is. This is what is written in the Gospel, as it is written in the lives of all the saints, the famous ones and the less well-known ones, those at home, in the parish, in ecclesial groups and movements.
People who have lived in the ordinariness of the world, but with the conviction that not everything ends in the world. People who have experienced and made others see the Infinite in finite things. The sky inside the earth, a hundredfold down here, which is a wealth of meaning. An incalculable wealth in the eyes of a world of earth.
