One of the horrors of war is that it can corrupt the innocent victims as well as the aggressors. Just as a 'good' soldier can become careless of life's virtue, and even cruel, so an 'innocent' victim is in danger of hating those who made her suffer, and therefore being 'innocent' no more.
I remember being young and experiencing a sudden 'teaching', which told me that we are strangers on this earth.

Christ sends His angels to rescue souls from darkness and to bring them nearer to His light.
God the Father is calling everyone to turn to Him; yet the gloomy interiors of sinful souls resemble a dark room in a catacomb: people who refuse to repent, who refuse to confess their sins, and who do no penance.

By a mere thread of charity, and a tiny prayer, we can save one who might have fallen to the depths.
When anyone determinedly steps out to serve God, he or she is led on a firm path. The way is clear, but it's as if a burning lake lies at one side, so great care is necessary. One foolish step - such as pride - would mean disaster. The person who stays close to the wall (to Christ) will arrive safely into His arms, in Heaven.
