I lead a relatively quiet and peaceful life, I have even called my life monastic at times. It’s a quiet life of service immersed in love for everything and everybody. Many years ago I asked to see things the way God does. Now I believe I do (except at times when I allow myself to get distracted!). My love is a gift I am very grateful for. “For after all the beautiful and simple words have been spoken, it is still the pattern of that Life which compels attention: its obscure and humble birth; its education in poverty; its temptation, mortification, and solitude; its acts of compassion and service; its desolation at moments of apparent abandonment of the Divine; its painful death of the self; and its final absorption into the Source.” (Silence: Our Eye On Eternity, by Daniel A. Seeger)
