Life...


Life is this simple:  We are living in a world that is albsolutely transparent, and God is shining through it all the time.  This is not just a fable or a nice story.  It is true.  If we abandone ourselves to God and forget ourselves, we see it sometimes, and we see it maybe frequently.  God shows Himself everywhere, in everything -- in people and in things and in nature and in events...we cannot be without Him.  It's impossible.  The only thingis, we don't see it.

- Thomas Merton
