There are days when I am convinced that
Heaven starts already, now, in this ordinary life, just as it is,
in all its incompleteness, yet, this is where Heaven starts.
See within yourself, if you can find it.
I walked through the field in front of the house, lots of swallows flying, everywhere! Some very near me. It was magical.
We are already one, yet we know it not
~Thomas Merton
