Where would be a good place to go that is far away from a world of strife and conquest, like a cool forest glade, with a goodly stream of clear water bubbling along. If we could go there and just enjoy the peace and the clean air and breezes, maybe we could speak of the small beauty that we see at moments.
Must it be like a fantasy of childhood innocence, free from thoughts of malice or distress? Could we just allow ourselves some little time to close our eyes and breathe in the serene breath of gentle soothing happiness?
Could we find there, filling us little by little, the perfection of living, the awareness of the indwelling Lord God of all Creation?
And we know that the silent gift was then given, too?
