We come across two kinds of people. The first (they form the majority of the good, the bad and the indifferent) when asked what life means to them or what, for them, are its whys and purposes, are ignorant and are unable to give a direct answer. The other kind are enthusiastic and creative, who have filled their life with meaning and purpose and who, even though they form a minority, are largely contributing to the wonder world we are fashioning in many sectors of life. These are charismatic persons. Humbly but truthfully we can say that the Society of Jesus also belongs to this charismatic group and has made a significant difference to the Church and to the larger society while pursuing its charism and values.
