Learning Love’s Language

“It is necessary for me to see the first point of light that
begins to be dawn. It is necessary to be present alone at the resurrection of
Day in solemn silence at which the sun appears, for at this moment all the
affairs of cities, of governments, of war departments, are seen to be the
bickering of mice. I receive from the Eastern woods, the tall oaks, the one
word DAY. It is never the same. It is always in a totally new language.”
~Thomas Merton (Journals, May 1965, V.240-41)
